John Cena News: John Cena's tag team partner announced for return show at MSG

What's the story

As previously announced here on Sportskeeda, John Cena will be making his return to the WWE starting in late December for a string of house shows, followed up by an appearance on Monday Night RAW scheduled for January 7th 2019. A big match has been announced involving John Cena for the MSG show on December 26th.

In case you didn't know...

Former multi-time WWE Champion John Cena has been in and out of action as he is currently slowing down his career and performing on a more, part-time basis for the WWE.

John Cena was scheduled to compete in the WWE World Cup tournament for Crown Jewel but backed out of the event in protest to the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

The heart of the matter

John Cena's last wrestling match to date was at WWE "Super Show-Down", winning a tag match with Bobby Lashley over Kevin Owens and Elias.

Mike Johnson from PWInsider has reported that John Cena, making his return later next month, will be teaming up with Finn Balor to face the team of Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre in a tag team match.

What's next
