John Cena Legitimately Choked Bloodline Member During WWE Match
John Cena once showed his ruthless side by choking out a bloodline member.
At the 2007 Royal Rumble, Cena faced Umaga in a Last Man Standing match.
A week ago, he was attacked by Umaga after being put through a gruelling Rumble-style elimination match.
As expected, Umaga dominated most of the match, with Cena time and again forced to use underhanded tactics known to him.
Throughout the bout, Cena bled buckets but refused to stay down. At one point in the match, the ring ropes came off, which he used to choke out The Samoan Bulldozer.
Umaga failed to answer the referee’s count, thus losing a match in which he was on top.
Mike Chioda, the legendary referee who officiated that match, lifted the lid on it while responding to a user praising Cena.
That’s because he choked umaga out for a shoot! 😳🤣 https://t.co/lcvwYH6I3E
