Update On John Cena WWE Time Off Being Linked To New TV Show

Cena will be gone until after Christmas.

John Cena will be filming something during his time off, Bryan Alvarez has confirmed on Wrestling Observer Radio. However, that isn't necessarily his main reason for taking time off. And the filming isn't necessarily the fitness show that has been rumoured. The rumour of a Cena TV project came out on Monday, however he asked WWE for the time off months ago and the Observer reported it as "personal reasons." WWE officials continue to be very quiet on why Cena will be away. The rumour of the fitness TV Show should be taken as speculation for now. What sounded odd about that story, was the time-frame, as well as the fact that it was supposedly for the FOX Network. Plus, if Cena was involved in some sort of new television show, there's no reason why WWE wouldn't just announce it. Cena's last Raw will be on Monday and he'll then leave WWE after Hell In A Cell. His scheduled return is for the December 26 house show in Madison Square Garden. As the main star, he's going to be a loss for WWE, but there's reports that The Undertaker is open to working more dates. Additionally, WWE have had talks with The Rock about doing something before the end of 2015. If WWE can secure those names, it will more than make up for Cena's absence.
