John Cena announced at Backlash the creation of the John
Cena Classic, a one-night event featuring WWE Superstars
taking on NXT talent where the audience will have their say
on who would be crowned the John Cena Classic champion.
Cena said that the idea was born after the Saturday Night’s
Main Event which had his final match, where Sol Ruca, Je’Von
Evans, and Oba Femi were all featured and made a big splash.
The 17-time champ noted that he’s putting a lot of effort
into this project especially since his name is attached to
it. He mentioned that everyone who will be part of the show
could eventually end up champion, even those who lose their
match.
Cena gave no date or location where the John Cena Classic
will take place but it did sound like it will be a new
premium live event on the WWE calendar.
