What was reportedly pitched for John Cena at Wrestlemania 39 before WWE’s regime change
As previously noted, there has been talk about John Cena having a match at WWE Wrestlemania 39 and possibly facing either Austin Theory or Logan Paul.
Fightful Select noted the following regarding Wrestlemania creative plans…
“We’re told that anything that Vince McMahon had in mind for next year before his departure isn’t set for the show any longer. Ahead of Vince leaving, it was presumed that Cody Rhodes would end up competing for the WWE Championship at the show, however sources in creative told Fightful that while that was assumed, it wasn’t outright told to them.”
Fightful added that prior to Vince leaving, there were pitches for Cody to face Cena at Wrestlemania but there hasn’t been any word about it being discussed since the regime change. Furthermore, internal conversation has reportedly shifted from Austin Theory to Logan Paul as of late. The belief is that other top talent have been pushing to work with Cena at Wrestlemania as far back as July.
