“Nikki 2.0”: Fans React as John Cena and His Wife Share a Close Moment After Triumph Over Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn

WWE legend and actor John Cena made his anticipated return on the last SmackDown of 2022. And in turn, kept his streak of wrestling at least one match since 2001. His team featuring Kevin Owens took on The Bloodline’s Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn. The Doctor of Thuganomics, like many times in his career, ended up on the winning side. However, his actions at the ringside after the match melted a lot of the audience’s hearts.

Cena has overseen a level of dominance in the squared circle, which is very rarely seen. His record-equalling feat of 16-world titles is very hard to emulate. The Cenation Leader thwarted many obstacles for becoming the household name he is nowadays. His wife Shay Shariatzadeh was in attendance for her husband’s return match. And Cena planted a kiss on her forehead while returning to the locker room area.

The couple entered wedlock back in 2020 in an attorney’s office in Florida. Cena is an established actor now with multiple roles under his belt. His tight schedule means that he seldom gets the time to compete with his previous employer. But whenever he gets a chance to dazzle in the ring, The Doctor of Thuganomics never disappoints. A case in point is his recent appearance at SmackDown.

Cena was previously engaged to former WWE superstar Nikki Bella. However, the duo called off their wedding back in 2018. The much-loved couple dated for around 5 years before The Cenation Leader proposed to Bella at WrestleMania 33. They had just beaten the power couple, The Miz and Maryse, before the surreal moment. The cancellation of the planned marriage broke many hearts.

Fans react to the moment

Fans were quick to notice The Cenation Leader’s movements after the match. The reactions ranged from being awestruck to fans taking a dig at the actor’s previous relationship with Bella.

John Cena is no doubt one of the best to ever grace the squared circle. Seeing him share a moment with his wife would have melted many hearts. It’s natural to mention a celebrity’s previous love relationship, but both parties seemed to have moved on from that despair. It’s high time that fans should do the same. Nevertheless, seeing their favorite superstar in the ring after a long time would have surely evoked nostalgia among many loyalists.
