WWE veteran John Cena is all set to make his next WWE appearance, though it won't be on any of the main roster shows, or even NXT for that matter. Cena will be appearing on the official premiere of WWE Backstage, along with Rob Gronkowski.
Cena's recent appearances as a part-time star
It has been a long while since John Cena turned into a part-time WWE Superstar. The 16-time World Champion was the biggest Superstar in the company at one point, around a decade ago. As time passed, Cena explored new opportunities and recently bagged a role in Fast & Furious 9, which will be releasing next year in May.

Cena came back to WWE earlier this year at WrestleMania 35 and came out as The Doctor of Thugonomics. Months later, he appeared on the RAW Reunion episode in a segment with The Usos. In a recent interview, Cena stated that he'll never retire from WWE, adding that he regards the promotion as his family.
I don’t think I’ll ever retire, because I don’t look at it like that … You don’t retire from your family. I will never, ever stop waving the WWE flag … I don’t think I’ll ever separate myself from them.
