10 Potential WWE WrestleMania 36 Opponents For John Cena

'El Ídolo' vs. an idol is the draw for this one.

Andrade's recent Wellness Policy hiccup hopefully won't lead to some unnecessary punishment from WWE's top brass. It's a good sign that he hasn't been stripped of his United States Title, but it's important they don't decide to give him some sort of televised spanking (not literally) by having him drop the belt quickly when he returns.

Right now, Zelina Vega's prime client needs marquee wins that'll help him take a leap up the company ladder in time for the coming post-WrestleMania slump in business. Besting John Cena would be a feather in Andrade's cap, and it'd be straightforward to book. Don't forget Cena's own history with that US belt, and how much he did for the secondary strap several years ago.

His open challenges provided some of the best TV matches in recent WWE history. Now, he could take that sort of thing to pay-per-view, albeit with a twist. Cena would be hunting for the title, not fighting off hungry newcomers, and he'd love Andrade's big bumping style.
