WWE Superstar John Cena recently took to social media to break his silence following his huge announcement for SmackDown. The Cenation Leader is all set to appear on next week's edition of the blue brand.
Since turning heel at Elimination Chamber 2025, John Cena has come face to face with Cody Rhodes thrice. During their latest meeting on last week's RAW, both stars took several shots at each other on the microphone. Things escalated after Rhodes took a jab at Cena's wrestling ability. This did not sit well with the 16-time World Champion, and he went in for a cheap shot. However, he was stopped in his tracks by The American Nightmare, who hit a Cross Rhodes on his opponent and left him lying in the ring.
