John Cena and Edge are two of the most iconic superstars in WWE. Their rivalry is considered one of the best and has led to some great matches. The feud started in 2006, when Edge cashed in his Money in the Bank contract over Cena to win his first ever WWE Championship. This memorable incident kicked off their ever-longing feud. The WWE Hall of Famer even slapped John Cena’s father during their ongoing rivalry.

The August 14, 2006, episode of Monday Night RAW kicked off with a video package narrated by the Rated-R Superstar. The video started at John Cena’s father’s house in West Newbury. It further showed Edge and Lita paying a visit to that household and checking on stuff in his kitchen. Both stars then entered John Cena’s room and checked on his various T-shirts and boots while standing on his bed.

At that moment, RVD felt like he was at the top of the world. That victory holds a special significance as it was his first-ever world title victory.
