WWE fans, get ready for the return of a legendary superstar! John Cena is set to make his comeback to the wrestling world, and it’s shaping up to be an exciting run.
It was recently announced that Cena will be appearing on tonight’s episode of SmackDown, marking his first TV appearance in quite some time. But that’s not all – Cena is also scheduled to wrestle next Friday for the WWE Superstar Spectacle in India. He’ll be teaming up with the WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins to take on Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci.
But the excitement doesn’t stop there. According to a report from PWInsider, there are talks of having Cena appear at the WWE Fastlane Premium Live Event on Saturday, October 7. This event will be held at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Furthermore, there have been discussions about Cena potentially appearing at the Payback Premium Live Event. While the report doesn’t mention his role as a special guest host, it confirms that there have been talks about his involvement.
If that’s not enough to get you pumped up, there’s also a possibility of seeing Cena at the Fastlane go-home SmackDown on October 6 in St. Louis, as well as the post-Fastlane SmackDown on October 13 in Tulsa.
But wait, there’s more! WWE has also been considering a match between Cena and Cody Rhodes in the near future. It seems like they’re pulling out all the stops to make the most of Cena’s return.
Originally, it seemed like Cena’s comeback would be a relatively short stint. However, it’s now clear that WWE wants to capitalize on the star power of one of the greatest pro wrestlers of all time.
Here’s Cena’s current announced WWE schedule:
- Friday, September 1 at the GIANT Center in Hershey, PA (SmackDown, Payback go-home show)
- Friday, September 8 at the GMC Balayogi Indoor Stadium in Hyderabad, India (Superstar Spectacle, teaming with WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins to take on Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci)
