Is John Cena returning to SmackDown LIVE on July 4?

May 31, 2017

Could John Cena be preparing for an Independence Day return to SmackDown LIVE? A recent tweet from the 16-time World Champion has the WWE Universe wondering.

Cena, who has been in Atlanta filming the upcoming movie “The Pact,” lamented on Twitter that he wouldn’t be able to drop in on SmackDown LIVE at the nearby Philips Arena. However, the end of that tweet set the WWE Universe abuzz with speculation about how soon The Cenation Leader might be back in action.

Bittersweet day today as I begin another night in Atlanta. Such a funny movie but #SDLive @WWE is so close! 7/4 can't get here fast enough!
