As seen in the main event of this week’s SmackDown, John Cena made his return to WWE. The Leader of the Cenation received a massive pop from the audience in the arena and he was happy to be back.
Cena took the mic in his hand and talked about what he wants to do at this year’s WrestleMania. Cena revealed that he believes that this year’s WrestleMania should go on without him.

The audience didn’t like that idea but Cena said that it’s not a goodbye but a goodbye for now. He left the microphone in the ring and went back to the ramp and gave a final salute.
Suddenly, the lights went out and when they came back, the Fiend Bray Wyatt was standing behind John Cena. The two men had a staredown before the Fiend pointed at the WrestleMania sign.
Cena looked right into the Fiend’s eyes, tipped his hat and nodded his head and the lights went out again to end the show.

Reports throughout the past month have indicated that the Leader of the Cenation could go up against Wyatt at the Show of Shows. However, after Wyatt lost his Universal Title to Goldberg at Super ShowDown, more of these reports came in.
These reports have now been confirmed, John Cena will battle the Fiend at WrestleMania 36.
