The next pay-per-view on WWE’s schedule is Money in the Bank, and after the show wraps up all eyes will be looking ahead to SummerSlam at Allegiant Stadium in August.
It’s been reported that WWE wants to make SummerSlam a WrestleMania level event this year, and it’s also been rumored that John Cena could be returning to face Roman Reigns. However, there has been speculation on Cena’s status after it was revealed that the former WWE Champion will be filming a movie in Europe in August.
It looks like Cena will likely be facing Roman Reigns after all, as the Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that John Cena is free of responsibilities for acting work until after SummerSlam.
Roman Reigns vs. John Cena is reportedly locked in for the main event of SummerSlam. There’s currently no word on when John Cena will be back on TV, but it’s worth noting that live crowds will be returning next week for the final SmackDown before Money in the Bank.
SummerSlam will air live on Saturday, August 21. Stay tuned for updates.
