WWE Raw Will Feature A John Cena Dream Match We Weren’t Expecting


John Cena’s return to Raw after SummerSlam led to a feud between he and Roman Reigns that will culminate at a match later this month at No Mercy. In the meantime, the two have cut one incredible promo and a few lackluster ones and participated in tag matches as partners for some reason.

This Monday night we will be given an apparent respite from the Cena-Reigns feud for a dream Cena match that no one saw coming. On Monday afternoon, WWE announced Cena will take on Braun Strowman in the main event of Raw, which continues Strowman’s run of having matches with pretty much every big name (and big person) on the roster.

A week ago, Strowman and Big Show put on their third incredible match of the year, this time in a steel cage that finished with a Strowman victory and Big Show getting thrown through the cage after the match concluded. It was awesome, as has been the case with pretty much every match Strowman has been involved in for the better part of a year.

Strowman’s feud with Reigns was a fan favorite because it was pretty much him beating the hell out of Roman and flipping ambulances over, and the SummerSlam main event that saw Brock Lesnar retain his title will be best remembered for Strowman’s feats of strength in rag-dolling Lesnar. With No Mercy’s main event being Strowman-Lesnar, WWE has needed filler matches to keep riding how hot fans are for Strowman. Enter Big Show and, now, Cena, in what ought to be another incredible hoss fight.
