Becky Lynch Confronts John Cena On WWE SmackDown Live
“The Man” steps to the The Man.
The former 16-time WWE World Champion John Cena made his long-awaited return to WWE television during tonight’s SmackDown broadcast in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Cena showed up to a welcoming crowd as it was his first time on SmackDown Live since February 27th of 2018. Cena got on the microphone and was interrupted by former SmackDown Live Women’s Champion Becky Lynch.
Becky talked some trash to John Cena and told him that Nikki Bella was not going to be the only woman to drop him.

Becky and John were then interrupted by Andrade “Cien” Almas and Zelina Vega and then a mixed tag team match was made official between the two pairs. Towards the end of the match John Cena was pandering to the crowd and Becky tossed Cena out of the ring. Zelina Vega tried to capitalize and roll Becky up but Lynch countered into the “Disarm-Her” and tapped Zelina out.
