WWE legend John Cena has made sporadic appearances in the squared circle since he went part-time. His last few appearances include matches against the likes of Roman Reigns and Austin Theory. The last time fans saw him was at Money In The Bank where he confronted Grayson Waller after he hyped the crowd with a WrestleMania in London chant.

Now, WWE has used Cena’s fame again to build its mega show in India, a country with a huge WWE fan base. A tweet on X through WWE about the show was followed by Cena’s tweet.
