The 16-time World Champion John Cena appeared on the June 27th episode of Monday Night Raw to celebrate his 20-year anniversary as a WWE Superstar. While there was a small backstage confrontation between himself and Theory, and many fans believed that will lead to match between them at Summer Slam but it’s not happening.
On a recent episode of Wrestling Observer Live, Bryan Alvarez stated that The Leader of Cenation John Cena won’t be competing at Summer Slam this year, which is due to the fact that he’s currently involved in filming the second season of the hit DC Comics TV show Peacemaker.
“I can confirm that being filmed right now is Peacemaker 2 and John Cena is involved,” Bryan Alvarez said. “He’s working on Peacemaker 2 as we speak. I presume that’s why there have been discussions of him doing SummerSlam but then he showed up on Raw to announce ‘someday I’ll be back. I don’t know when, don’t know where but I’ll be back someday.’ Apparently, he’s filming Peacemaker and that’s why he can’t do SummerSlam.” [H/T: WrestlingNews.co]
