John Cena has fans talking about a potential appearance at WWE WrestleMania 40 with recent teases.
As recently as last week, there was talk about having Cena at Mania, but it depends on his acting schedule. If he can make it, but he won't be able to do anything that's deemed a risk due to insurance reasons. It was described as should Cena appear, then the idea is to do something “fun, short and memorable and with substance.”
Last year, Cena put over Austin Theory at WrestleMania 40 and then Solo Sikoa in his most recent WWE match at Crown Jewel in November. While appearing on First Take, Cena dropped a WrestleMania teaser, noting he had his fingers crossed that he would be wearing jorts the day of Mania.
While appearing on The Tonight Show, Cena noted that he’s free the day of Mania.
“People are talking, WrestleMania 40. They’re speculating that The Rock and I will be in the ring in Philadelphia for WrestleMania 40. They’re gonna keep talking until it happens. We don’t know yet. That was not satisfactory [when the crowd groaned]. We just took the wind out of your sails. Do you want me to make a promise I can’t keep? Do you want me to write a check I can’t cash? Am I in the business of writing checks that my ass can’t cash? Is that what we’re doing here? Is that the type of outfit you’re running?"
When WrestleMania 40 was brought up, Cena noted that he knew the date of the show.
"It’s April 6 in Philadelphia. I know exactly where it is. I’m free that day. I’m just saying. I’m just saying to you guys out there. Now, the energy’s coming back a little bit. The suspense is building."
It should be noted that WrestleMania takes place both April 6 and 7.
