New WWE WrestleMania Opponent Rumored For John Cena
After WWE Elimination Chamber, the company kicked off a storyline where John Cena was trying to “earn” his way into WrestleMania. Before he even elicited the name of The Undertaker, a showdown with the Deadman was rumored, and despite Cena shooting that down during his promo on Raw, that speculation persisted.
Well Sports Illustrated’s Justin Barrasso shared some details of a new potential opponent after Tuesday’s WWE Smackdown Live broadcast.
Breaking: Per WWE sources, Rey Mysterio is backstage working out details tonight at SmackDown for a match at WrestleMania. The rumored opponent is John Cena.
— Justin Barrasso (@JustinBarrasso) February 28, 2018
Smackdown took place at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, so Rey being there for any reason–even to visit with friends–makes sense.
Our take:
An unconventional opponent for sure, but honestly The Undertaker speculation seems to be more hope than anything. He clearly retired at the end of WrestleMania 33, and his words on the WWE 24 special taped for the WWE Network seems to confirm that.
Rey Mysterio looked great at the Royal Rumble, and it doesn’t seem like he was part of the first round of Lucha Underground tapings.
What say you? Would you be down for Cena vs. Mysterio at WrestleMania 34?

Former WWE Star Reveals How Company Tests Wrestlers for an “Attitude Problem”
A former WWE star took to social media to explain, in brief, how WWE evaluates its talent to determine whether they have an “attitude problem.” The post offered a glimpse into the company’s behind-the-scenes vetting process, suggesting that behavior and professionalism are actively monitored during a wrestler’s time with the promotion.
While the explanation was limited, the revelation underscores WWE’s focus on maintaining locker-room culture and managing talent dynamics. Fans and industry observers may read the post as further evidence that character and conduct behind the curtain can be as consequential as in-ring performance.
