John Cena is set to play a major role at WWE Payback this weekend. The wrestling legend and Hollywood star announced his return to the WWE ring this week on the SmackDown show. At the start of the night, Cena shared the news with the audience that he will be hosting the premium live event.
"I just found this out right before I ran down here," he said. "You have given me the opportunity to host Payback tomorrow night!" He was thankful for all the love and support from the fans, including the chance to wrestle in India for the first time this month and to come home to the WWE family.
Unfortunately, his announcement was cut short by Jimmy Uso who interrupted to accuse Cena of being just like Roman Reigns. Jimmy maintained that the only difference between Cena and Reigns was that Cena did his "taking" with a smile.
Cena wasn't going to let the insults stand and he quickly responded. "I got to stop you for a second," he said. "You've had a lot on your mind. I've been wanting to say this to you for three years, because I've only been thinking of one thing. The wrong Uso quit."
At that point, Jimmy attempted to take Cena out with a superkick, only to be dropped with an Attitude Adjustment. It looks like this could be the start of an exciting couple of months for Cena and WWE fans. WWE SmackDown airs Friday nights at 1am on TNT Sports 1.
