John Cena unexpectedly returned to WWE after the WGA strike took over Hollywood and hampered Cena’s progress as a Hollywood star. He was soon confronted by Paul Heyman on SmackDown who refused to acknowledge John Cena as the GOAT. The wise man for the Tribal Chief considers Roman Reigns as the GOAT and hence took Cena’s return as a hindrance.

Though Cena just wanted to interact with the WWE crowd, Heyman released The Enforcer of The Bloodline to prey upon Cena leading to a match at Crown.
