In 2008, John Cena made his surprise return from a serious injury and ended up winning the Royal Rumble match. The wrestling star had torn his pectoral muscle 3 months earlier and was supposed to be out of action for months while he focused on his health.
However, it did not take that long for Cena to recover miraculously and the WWE star returned to the wrestling scene in just 3 months.
During his latest appearance on WWE Backstage, CM Punk revealed that originally, he was scheduled to win the match. "I was supposed to win.
I was supposed to win that Royal Rumble, then John Cena comes back after three months from a torn pec. Thanks a lot, John," he exclaimed.
