WWE Champion Alberto Del Rio vs. John Cena

Alberto Del Rio will defend his WWE Championship at Vengeance against John Cena in a Last Man Standing Match – a stipulation hand-picked by Cena! The match was one of the first major announcements made by Raw SuperShow's new Interim General Manager, John Laurinaitis.

Because he and Jim Ross defeated Del Rio & Michael Cole on Raw SuperShow in Mexico City, Cena was given the opportunity to choose the match’s stipulation. With no count-outs and no disqualifications, the competitor who doesn’t answer the WWE official’s 10-count loses in a Last Man Standing Match.

Cena has been ready for his rematch since he lost the WWE Title at WWE Hell in a Cell in a Triple Threat Match against Del Rio and Punk, when The Mexican Aristocrat locked Cena out of the cell and used a steel pipe to defeat The Straight Edge Superstar. However, Laurinaitis has declared that this is Cena’s last chance at the WWE Championship. If he doesn’t defeat Del Rio on Sunday, he doesn’t get another title match against him. Cena stated that he only needs one chance at Del Rio – a Superstar who has yet to beat him in his life.

Now that Del Rio has won his second WWE Title, the Mexican Superstar isn’t ready to give up his destiny just yet. After defeating both Cena and Punk at WWE Hell in a Cell, Del Rio is determined to hold onto the most coveted prize in WWE, no matter the cost and regardless of the stipulation.

Will Cena capture the WWE Championship for a record 11 times at Vengeance? Or will Del Rio finally defeat Cena, one-on-one in a Last Man Standing Match, to continue his title reign? Watch Vengeance Sunday at 8 ET/5 PT, live on pay-per-view.
