John Cena is back on SmackDown this Friday (Sept. 1). We thought that was just a one-off related to his return to the ring during WWE’s one-show trip to India the following week, but the company just announced Cena will be appearing on seven additional episodes of the blue brand.
He’ll be doing community service work at each stop, adding to his record-setting number of Make-A-Wish visits with children & their families while back on the road with WWE. But the press release specifies he’ll be appearing “on” SmackDown, so it sounds like he will be on FOX each week.
