John Cena To Return On 3/13 WWE SmackDown

John Cena is back on SmackDown this week.

WWE announced that Cena will appear on the March 13 episode of SmackDown to respond to Bray Wyatt after the most recent episode of the Firefly Fun House last week. Cena and Wyatt are set to face off at WrestleMania 36 on April 5, Cena's first match in WWE since January 2019. Cena made his return on the February 28 episode of SmackDown and the match against Wyatt was quickly made official after the two had a brief staredown.

From WWE:

John Cena was ready to step out of the spotlight for the next generation of WWE Superstars, and “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt was more than happy to pull him into the darkness.

The two are now set for an epic showdown at The Showcase of the Immortals, and the iconic Cena will be in the building for Friday Night SmackDown.

Last week, Wyatt had his own message for Cena from the Firefly Fun House and showed off some interesting interior decorating as well.
