John Cena agreed to wrestle at SummerSlam despite WWE's advice to rest

John Cena

As noted earlier, former WWE Champion John Cena made his way out to the ring this week on RAW and claimed that he was advised to skip his match against Daniel Bryan at SummerSlam owing to his elbow injury.

Apparently, what Cena said was indeed true. Despite the advice from WWE officials, Cena insisted on working the match with Daniel Bryan and putting the latter over before taking time off to have surgery.

News is also out that Cena’s surgery and rehabilitation process will be exclusively covered and be a part of the storyline on several new episodes of WWE Total Divas.

Cena is expected to take a 4-6 month hiatus to recover from the elbow injury.
