John Cena was reportedly "penciled in" to face 27-year-old WWE Star at WrestleMania 39 before plans were scrapped 

With WrestleMania 39 fast approaching, many WWE fans are wondering if John Cena will be on this year's 'Mania card. A recent report has indicated that the legend was originally lined up to face Logan Paul at the event.

With just over a month to go until Mania, Cena looks set to face current United States Champion Austin Theory on the grandest stage of them all, with the young star recently sending a few verbal warnings to the 16-time World Champion.

According to a report from Wrestle News Premium, Cena was originally "penciled in" to face Logan Paul at WrestleMania 39 as far back as December 2022. However, it now seems that "Cena is coming in to help put Theory over" due to his admiration for the current US Champ.
