Austin Theory is reportedly set to face John Cena at WrestleMania 39

Last year, Austin Theory began making a name for himself on the red brand under the old regime. The management at the time was quite fond of Theory as he became the youngest United States Champion and Money in the Bank winner.

Last year, WWE celebrated John Cena's 20-year anniversary with the company. During the show, Theory confronted Cena and cut a promo on him. According to Fightful, Cena and Theory filmed a promo that could be for a potential match at WrestleMania 39. Check it out:

"Theory was originally scheduled to main event the Toronto live event that night in a cage match with Seth Rollins. However, Theory was pulled from that show to travel to Tampa, where he was set to film a segment with John Cena. We aren't told if that was to be digital, for future use, for 2K, but the segment was filmed." [H/T - Fightful Select]

It will be interesting to see if the Leader of Cenation returns to the company for a match with The Now at the Grandest Stage of Them All.
