One match that fans loved watching last year was Roman Reigns vs. John Cena. The feud was terrific, with a lot of flashbacks to their previous rivalries, but there was an element missing from it. A clash that is on the level of John Cena vs. Dwayne Johnson or The Rock vs. Hulk Hogan, lacked a drawn-out build and was placed on SummerSlam.

While Cena said that he’s down with wrestling anymore, in this business, never say never. With Cena returning to SmackDown for multiple dates, Paul Heyman seems to hint at another match between the two with a snide remark at Cena.

Walking down the WWE headquarters for an episode of The Bump Heyman saw a social media guy wearing a Hustle, Loyalty, and Respect shirt. The motto of the Cenation leader infuriated Heyman and he couldn’t help himself and got the man to acknowledge Roman Reigns.

He told the man, “Acknowledge your Tribal Chief. John Cena is the second-place GOAT because Roman Reigns is the GOAT.” At the end, he said, “Your shirt is very stupid.” While the man froze awkwardly, Heyman had no time for that and went and took his seat at the set of The Bump.

He had made his point clear though, just as every news outlet will talk about Cena, he gave them a spark that could give hope of a feud revival between the two giants. While the SummerSlam feud last year was rushed, this time Cena has already announced that he will be at WWE events for more than 2 months. This is the perfect time for the two to refuel their rivalry if nothing else.

While nothing is certain, fans will be elated to see Reigns and Cena back in the ring, feuding over Cena’s possible 17th world title run. Also, this comes as a great time for Cena as the WGA-SAG AFTRA strike is keeping him out of the movie industry. So, this seems like a blessing in disguise for the wrestling fans and Cena as he will be able to give his all in WWE for a while.
