John Cena made his big return to WWE last week on Raw and it didn’t take long for Austin Theory to interrupt him. Theory gifted Cena a shot at the US Title at WrestleMania and Cena accepted the offer.

A WrestleMania match between John Cena and Austin Theory has been rumored for some time now, and during a recent interview with APNews, Cena explained how Theory ended up as his opponent for WWE’s biggest show of the year.

“You would be surprised at my answer. Because that’s what I was told would happen. I don’t do that. I don’t say, I want to do this. I want to work with that person. I don’t ever do that. I’ve never done that. I just try and do what I’m told to do and do it to the best of my abilities. Instead of dictating my terms, I often just try to make the performance the best it can be. What I don’t do and what I’ve never done is curate the direction of the narrative. I don’t pick opponents, but I love to tell stories. I didn’t pick Austin Theory but I certainly spoke from the heart (on RAW).”
