John Cena Vs Dumpster Fire John Cena and Baron Corbin’s WWE rivalry
has burst out of Smackdown and onto Twitter, with John’s fiancee Nikki and the Lone Wolf
engaging in their own War of Clans...
“I can't wait to sit front row and see him slap that mouth right off your face!👋🏽👌🏽No
one gives & inspires as much as that man does.
N” “Front row?
I'll be sure to slam him in to the barricade in front of you.
Bring a towel, you can throw it in when he can't take anymore.”
John’s big retort against Smackdown’s Mr Money in the Bank…?

show.
Or...actually a rather Kane-like threat of arson!
But going by the Barclays Center’s Twitter account, John won’t have to deal with the
Lone Wolf much longer…
Cena went on a brief hiatus following Wrestlemania 32 to work on outside projects - mainly the
second season of his reality show American Grit, and shooting new comedy film The Pact.
Building up to Cena’s WWE return, though, promos advertised him as a ‘free agent’
- suggesting he’ll be able to appear on both brands.
Cena has been wrestling on Raw live events since July, and he’s currently being advertised
for the Raw-exclusive pay-per-view No Mercy in September, but thanks to a venue’s Twitter
page, his first TV appearance on Monday Night Raw could’ve been leaked.
“We're 10 days away from @WWE Monday Night RAW.
Don't miss Free Agent @JohnCena live here in Brooklyn on 8/21!
#WWEBrooklyn” The 21st August Raw is next Monday, the night
after Summerslam - the clearest indication yet that Cena is switching brands on TV.
The other possibility is that Cena will only be appearing on the 21st’s show for the
live crowd only in a dark match main event.
UK Champion Injured Just two days before, in the same building,
NXT will host TakeOver: Brooklyn III - which will see Bobby Roode defend against Drew McIntyre,
Asuka vs Ember Moon and the Authors of Pain taking on SAnitY.
Unlike the previous NXT TakeOver in Chicago, however - in what many consider the best WWE
match of the year so far - the UK Championship will not be defended on this show.
Instead, Pete Dunne was meant to defend his UK title against Cruiserweight wrestler Jack
Gallagher at a PROGRESS show over the weekend - the latest example of WWE working closely
with independent UK promotions.
Sadly, as first broken by PWInsider, Dunne was injured earlier that week, requiring 11
stitches to his temple, and couldn’t get medically cleared in time.
Gallagher instead fought Zack Gibson.
Want to hear about the time Mickey Rourke thought he was having a legit wrestling match
with Chris Jericho?
And remember when John Cena was stabbed on Smackdown?
