WWE superstar John Cena was last seen at "WrestleMania 33," and ever since, fans have been eagerly waiting for an announcement of his return. It appears that "SmackDown" has had very low ratings for the past year, and Cena's return is expected to boost ratings, should he decide to return.
Apparently, John Cena will only be back on "SmackDown Live" on July 4. The long wait for his fans may be coming to an end and the superstar is believed to be return to the show with a bang!
Who will John Cena face?
Rumor has it that Cena will take on Kevin Owens on "SmackDown," but there has also been news about the superstar fighting against Nakamura.
Once Cena is back on live television competing, there is definitely going to be an ultimate match, and this will certainly boost the ratings of "SmackDown" for sure.
According to Forbes, WWE is waiting for his return because they can't afford to let the ratings of the show dip any further moving forward. Initially, the program attempted to go on without Cena, and this was evident when they brought in new stars such as Nakamura and Jinder Mahal. With all the possible changes, there is no doubt that John Cena stole the show, and that nobody can replace him.
Will John Cena switch careers for Hollywood?
John Cena has kept himself busy with his latest Hollywood role in the film "The Wall," which has likely been a big reason for his absence in the WWE.
Cena has played an important role as one of the lead characters in the film. Now that things are working out for him in the film industry, there is talk about Cena following Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's footsteps. There are possibilities for him to appear in many more movies, and he may just switch careers permanently.
As for Brock Lesnar, he is returning next month to WWE for the Universal Championship.
Lesnar and Cena are considered the big stars of WWE. The moment Lesnar returns, there might be a match with Seth Rollins or Finn Balor. On the other hand, Randy Orton still has his hands on the WWE Championship. He is not going to give it up anytime soon. Over the past two years, Randy Orton has been one of the top 10 highest paid wrestlers.
Randy has managed to gain the support of his fans for a long time. With his long-lasting performances in the ring and his famous tactics, it seems that he is scaling the ladder to success for the long term. WWE could have a string of surprises, as CM Punk is expected to quit UFC and return to pro wrestling.
