10 Predictions For John Cena Returning To WWE

9. A Chris Jericho Feud

Having John Cena's big return on the night after Payback makes most sense. The May 1 special is already looking good, and the current cycle should be allowed to play out. On the May 2 Raw, a new cycle then starts for Extreme Rules, and Cena should be there to kick things off with a bang.

In order to boost Raw's rating, WWE should announce Cena's return during Payback, telling viewers to tune in on Monday to see him.

He'd then come out for the main event, announcing he's back in a bid for his sixteenth world title. But before he can call Roman Reigns out, Chris Jericho interrupts.

Y2J would put over the fact that he's the best in the world, and would challenge Cena to a match at Extreme Rules. Cena would accept, and raise the stakes by offering a cage match.

This booking makes sense as Cena's first feud back. Jericho is a relatively big name and is doing well in his heel role. The two men have a solid chemistry, both in the ring and on the mic. It would make for some compelling television.
