John Cena is returning to the SmackDown episode on 30th December 2022. This would be a great way to end the year for WWE Universe with ‘The Cenation Leader’ addressing them in Tampa, Florida.

However, the 45-year-old recently also hinted at his opponent in the future, if he competes. The opponent is a famous WWE Hall of Famer who is rumored to have a match at WrestleMania 39.

A few hours ago, shortly after Variety shared John Cena’s WWE news, the F9 star shared an Instagram post. It was an edited picture of Stone Cold Steve Austin turned into a meme.

The picture had a caption on it as ‘Stone Cold Soap’ as the soap from the poster of the movie Fight Club covered Austin’s face. It seems there might be something in the mind of Cena to provoke The Texas Rattlesnake for a match.

The 16-time world champion is in plans to have a match at WrestleMania 39. Moreover, his potential opponents can be Logan Paul or Austin Theory at the grandest stage. But it seems he wants to face someone else in Mania.

Moreover, Steve Austin, who made an in-ring return at WrestleMania 38, is rumored to have another match next year. The six-time WWE Champion was seen training hard and in great shape a few weeks back in a story he shared on social media.

Austin and Cena are two of the biggest draw in the history of WWE. Unfortunately, they never had a match while Austin was an active WWE star until 2003. However, many fans want to see this match in WWE and WrestleMania can be a huge platform for this match.

The Cenation’s Leader is known for some cryptic Instagram posts. He doesn’t write any captions and makes his followers think about what the post is really about. Cena’s post can be called as open-ended as fans assume what are those about by themselves.
