This week’s episode of SmackDown will see John Cena return for a match. It will be a tag team match against Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn, while he’ll team up with Kevin Owens.

WWE always tries to avoid any blunders when a massive return or a moment is planned. However, amidst Cena’s return to have a match after 475 days, WWE’s partnered TV channel makes a huge botch on social media while creating the hype of him coming back.

Recently, WWE on BT Sport shared a post which had all the major stats of John Cena. The numbers mentioned surely make The 16-time world champion “a living legend”, but one of the stats might haven’t been checked.

They mentioned Cena’s longest match in WWE against Shawn Michaels on RAW that went for 55:49 minutes. Surprisingly, ‘Super Cena’ has had a 60 minute Iron Match against Randy Orton in 2009 at Bragging Right PLE. It happened on October 14th, 2009 and Cena won the match via 6 to 5 pinfall.

It seems they might have to refer as the longest match without a stipulation. However, it is an assumption and only WWE knows why they added this match as his career’s longest match.

Fans call out WWE for their blunder of the longest match of John Cena

Cena and Orton is one of the prime feuds of WWE. Hence, the fans remember this rivalry vividly. The F9 star was the at the top, while Orton showed why everyone called his The Viper at the time.
