WWE star John Cena returned last month at the Money In The Bank pay-per-view and started a feud with WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns. They squared off in a match at WWE SummerSlam but it was ‘The Tribal Chief’, who succesfully defended his title.
At the event, Cena also introduced a new t-shirt design that seems to be an obvious copy of an old CM Punk-designed t-shirt.
John Cena seemingly copied CM Punk
Cena introduced a new t-shirt design that was a clear homage to classic box cover art for Super Mario Bros. 3. However, it seems the art itself is seemingly a rip-off of an older t-shirt design for CM Punk, who made his pro-wrestling return on Friday after he officially made his debut in All Elite Wrestling(AEW).

The fans who were watching the show at home immediately noticed that the design was almost indistinguishable to a CM Punk t-shirt on Pro Wrestling Tees. One fan took to Twitter and pointed out that fact as well.
“Well that’s one way to reference CM Punk returning. #UniversalTitle#SummerSlam”
We will see how Cena is booked from here as he could not capture the WWE Universal Championship at SummerSlam which would have made him a record 17-time World Champion, eclipsing WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair.
