A few fans also claimed that they thought Moxley will show up after Seth Rollins looked for a partner to team up with him for the main event match against The Usos.
I thought it was Dean Ambrose and my heart literally dropped 😭

Especially when i heard "no one's insane enough to team up with u", Mox's WWE character was literally the definition of insanity

John Cena and Jon Moxley got mentioned on WWE SmackDown
Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns will collide at the 2022 WWE Royal Rumble Premium Live Event. Prior to that, they had a very interesting confrontation on tonight’s episode of WWE SmackDown and fired shots at each other.
Rollins brought up The Usos’ assistance in Reigns’ matches and added that it was just like how he and Jon Moxley did it in The Shield. Rollins, Reigns, and Moxley (known as Dean Ambrose in WWE) formed one of the most dominant stables in professional wrestling – ‘The Shield’.
The WWE Universal Champion also fired a shot at Rollins and mentioned Seth always had the same stuff to say. He further asked him if John Cena was writing the promos for him.

Speaking of Moxley and Cena, it is highly unlikely that the two will appear in WWE soon. Moxley is currently signed to AEW and Cena is busy with his movies and television series.
Nevertheless, the fans will certainly hope that they get to see these two superstars return to WWE soon.
