I don't think we really finalized a specific day for anything like this, but I was just randomly thinking of this match and decided fuck it, let's do this.

Presented is the entire segment for John Cena vs Rob Van Dam for the title at ECW One Night Stand 2006, including entrances & introductions, the crowd ensuring Cena knows their feelings, and the post-match celebration. Enjoy!

That crowd was great. Some of those chants aimed at Cena were ruthless too. Holy shit lol.

Was that the only time Cena acted heel? He wasn't over-the-top about it but faces don't hit refs as far as I'm concerned.

Not sure if it was the only time, but probably the only time during that run I'd imagine. Given the situation I'd have to assume they decided back stage that Cena would be going into it heel cause if he didn't, the crowd would make him the heel anyway lol

Yeah that makes sense. I liked that he came out in black (since he was the heel and all) but I would’ve loved to see him wear his “fruity-pebbles” gear. Might’ve gotten the fans even more pissed off lol.
