Starting with the most obvious and yet the most glorious John Cena achievement - winning the WWE World Championship 16 times.

Winning 78.6% of his fights

John Cena is the WWE superstar that has the best winning ratio in WWE since the turn of millennium. He has participated in a staggering 2290 fights and ended up winning 1801 of those encounters. To put things into perspective, The Rock's winning percentage in WWE is close to only 53%.

Winning the Royal Rumble Twice

The Champ makes the elusive list of superstars that have won the WWE Royal Rumble on multiple occasions in their career. John Cena went on to win the Royal Rumble in 2008 and 2013. And to make it even sweeter, his victory in 2013 meant that he would defeat The Rock at WrestleMania 29. 

Surviving an hour long classic vs Randy Orton

In one of the most spine chilling fights of John Cena's career, he battled it out against Randy Orton in the 2009 Iron Man match at Bragging rights.
