For years John Cena was the face of WWE, but nowadays you can’t see him on WWE programming because he’s busy focusing on his acting career. It’s been a while since Cena has stepped into the ring, and fans are wondering if he could return for a match at WrestleMania 39 next year.
The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that Cena’s status for WrestleMania 39 is currently in question because Cena is set to film a moving called “Ricky Stanicky” with Zac Efron in Australia throughout February and March.
If Cena does indeed return for a match it’s not clear who he could face. Austin Theory has made it clear that he wants a match with John Cena and following Crown Jewel last month Logan Paul revealed that he pitched the idea of facing John Cena directly to Triple H.
“After the Crown Jewel event, John Cena posted about me on his Instagram. And then I saw an article saying he’s looking for an opponent at WrestleMania. I favorited it, responded with “the eyes”. I mean, truthfully, I think me vs. John Cena would break the internet. I texted Triple H right away, ‘do you want to break the internet again?’ That’s a dream matchup, dude: at WrestleMania, in LA, on my birthday. Triple H, throw me a bone, give me a birthday present, let me take out John Cena. And that’d be crazy.”
Stay tuned for more updates on John Cena’s status as they become available.
