There's no word yet on whether Cena will stick around after Superstar Spectacle, and it's likewise not known yet whether or not Big Match John will be wrestling as part of this latest return into the fold.

As alluded to, Cena appeared on this past Friday's SmackDown as part of the video tributes celebrating the career of one of Massachusetts native's greatest rivals, Edge. Prior to that, the Peacemaker star was last seen at Money in the Bank back in July, where he made a surprise appearance to tease the idea of a future WrestleMania taking place from the United Kingdom - in addition to laying out Grayson Waller with the Attitude Adjustment.
