It feels as though Cena and The Rock have unfinished business. Back at Elimination Chamber, Cena had an epic heel turn, where he delivered a low blow to WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, and “sold his soul” to The Rock. After five months, however, he would return to his babyface persona after Rhodes stated he wanted to “face the real John Cena” at SummerSlam. Cena would admit how foolish he was acting and thanked Rhodes for being a good friend. I was so hung up on how you might see me tomorrow that I forgot to realize how stupid I am acting today. Cody, you tried to tell me, but I didn’t listen. But you did what a good friend should do. You forced me to face it. You forced me into a fight. Many felt that WWE had to pivot away from the heel move simply because it flopped. The Rock is viewed as one of the main reasons for this, as he was not really involved much following the turn. Without involvement from the Final Boss, continuing the heel storyline probably felt pointless. Perhaps there is one more chance to rectify this storyline and bring it full circle. The Rock may not be too pleased that Cena decided to “take back his soul,” and that could lead to one final Cena versus Rock showdown. End Of My John Cena Opponents Rant We are in the home stretch of the retirement tour, so WWE needs to pull out all the stops. The tournament begins this coming Monday on Raw in Cena’s home state of Massachusetts, where Rusev faces Damien Priest, and Sheamus takes on Shinsuke Nakamura. The winner of this tournament is supposed to be Cena’s final opponent at SNME next month. While that is the current report, WWE could add another twist, especially if the Final Boss decides to get involved. It will be interesting to see how the last month will play out for The Doctor of Thuganomics.
