The WWE Universe is expecting to see Roman Reigns and John Cena square off inside the ring at SummerSlam. Although the match-up is not confirmed, it is in the works.

With that said, John Cena made his return at the Money in the Bank PPV hoping to face ‘The Tribal Chef’ for the Universal Championship.

This Friday on SmackDown, Paul Heyman addressed John Cena on behalf of Roman Reigns and said that when these two people have a microphone in their hands, the WWE Universe can expect some verbal banters.

While cutting their promos, Heyman shut Cena’s mouth in such a fashion that the WWE Universe found it hilarious and the leader of Cenation was left speechless.

John Cena was out of words for the first time in a while

John Cena kicked off this week’s SmackDown and challenged Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship at WWE’s second-biggest pay-per-view of the year; SummerSlam.

The 16-time world champion hyped the crowd for the SummerSlam match-up where the crowd was chanting his name and called out Reigns, repeatedly, to no avail. Instead of ‘The Tribal Chief‘, his counsel Paul Heyman came out to address Mr. Cena.

Heyman said that Cena is not a worthy opponent for the ‘Head of the Table’ and he is not interested in meeting Cena. While making his way back, Heyman made a cruel mockery of John Cena’s entrance music and his hand signs, which left Cena short of words.

The WWE Universe present in the attendance found this mockery extremely hilarious, and so does the internet.

Reigns came out later that evening and addressed the challenge issued by Cena earlier in the show. He said that the former champion still thinks that he can run this business.

He then insulted Cena for his hand signs, his merchandise, his entrance music, and lets him know that he is not worthy.
