3 Reasons why John Cena will make an appearance on Raw Reunion and 3 reasons he won't

Modified Jul 22, 2019 12:23 GMT

#1 Won't make an appearance: WWE might have other plans

At this point, Cena simply can't commit to WWE for multiple appearances. He appeared on SmackDown Live last year, putting over Becky Lynch. Months later, Cena came back at 'Mania, donning his Dr. of Thugonomics gimmick.

WWE SmackDown Live is all set to move to FOX later this year. What if WWE wants Cena to make an appearance at the first show on FOX, and has booked him for the same?

With Cena's schedule being incredibly tight at the moment, he just can't manage to attend multiple shows, and WWE could possibly have sacrificed the Raw Reunion for a Cena appearance at SmackDown Live's FOX debut. With WWE wanting to turn the move to FOX into a huge affair, Cena being there at the very beginning would help matters a lot.

#1 Will make an appearance: An opportunity to give a push to another rising Superstar

Last year, John Cena came back to WWE on an episode of SmackDown Live and was interrupted by Becky Lynch. Lynch had recently embraced the persona of "The Man" and was a legit crowd favorite.

The two Superstars teamed up and won a Mixed Tag Team Match, after which Lynch threw Cena out of the ring and mocked him with his signature "You can't see me" gesture. This reunion would give WWE an opportunity to give another rising star a rub from one of the all-time greats.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
