All eyes will be on the WrestleMania XL press event this Thursday. The scrum will officially kick off The Road to The Biggest Event of the Year. Fans can expect a lot of surprises to go down at the press conference.

Speaking of surprises, it is possible a 46-year-old WWE legend could show up at the presser to make a blockbuster announcement. The star in question is none other than John Cena. The Cenation Leader hasn’t appeared at premium live event since Crown Jewel 2023.

He did make a brief cameo at the Absolute Best of 2023 pre-taped edition of WWE SmackDown. Cena had teased a potential match in his vignette. It is possible he could announce his return to in-ring competition at WrestleMania XL press event.

It is worth mentioning that Cena’s last WrestleMania appearance was in 2023. The 16-time world champion kicked off the show against Austin Theory for the United States Championship. Theory would retain his title following a low blow.


Which WWE Superstars will appear at WrestleMania XL press event?

The WrestleMania XL press event is set to feature a face-off between The Rock and Roman Reigns. Both men crossed paths last week on WWE SmackDown after Cody Rhodes seemingly ceded his main event spot to The People’s Champion.
