The WWE return date for John Cena has now been officially announced.
John Cena overcame arguably his biggest WWE rival in CM Punk at Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia. Since then, the star has been absent from TV as he is reportedly busy with shooting. The star is set to face Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam after the latter won the chance to face him by winning the King of the Ring tournament.
The GOAT’s return date has finally been announced.
John Cena is set to return to WWE next week
Cena, a 17-time world champion, was announced to be returning to WWE next week on SmackDown. The star will be in a face-to-face confrontation with Cody Rhodes on the show next week, only three weeks before SummerSlam. The star will seemingly not be there much in the build-up to the Biggest Party of the Summer as he will be busy shooting.
