John Cena made his grand return on Sunday night at the WWE Money in the Bank pay-per-view event in Fort Worth, Texas at Dickies Arena.
It happened after Roman Reigns had successfully retained the WWE Universal Title over Edge in the main event thanks to outside interference from Seth Rollins. Cena, who had bright new colors, got a massive pop from the live crowd.
After running the ropes and legitimately showing excitement, he had a staredown with Reigns before doing his signature, “you can’t see me” hand sign, to lead to the show going off the air.
It’s been reported that Cena will challenge Reigns for the Universal Title at next month’s SummerSlam in Las Vegas. The build of that program just began.
Cena hadn’t been on WWE television since WrestleMania 36 where he took part in the Firefly Fun House match against Bray Wyatt. It was a trip down memory lane for Cena.
Cena has continued his Hollywood career while being away from WWE. He started serving as the host of TBS’ Wipeout series, filmed the second Suicide Squad movie, the Peacemaker series, and starred in the most recent Fast & Furious movie, F9.
