John Cena made his much-anticipated return on Smackdown Live on last night. He wanted to make this night a memorable one by stepping into the ring with a new challenger. He eventually went to do so but the night will be remembered for a different reason. None other than the most popular superstar of the roster confronted him to set up a heated confrontation. Becky Lynch is the name concerned who owned the franchise player during an exciting segment.

WWE fans gave a warm welcome to the return of John Cena. His presence was much needed to boost up the TV ratings for Smackdown Live. He went straight to call any one of the locker room to compete in a match. But instead, Becky Lynch interrupted the session to confront him. She not only blasted him with a heel promo but also took shots to the personal life of John Cena.
Becky Lynch told that the Cenation Leader should be careful enough after returning to the show. Otherwise, ‘Nikki Bella would not be the only one to drop him’. Now it was something that we like to call pipe-bomb. The Man was not finished with this. She continued to own John Cena throughout the segment. These two teamed up in a mixed tag team match where Cena was inching closer to pick up the win.
But Lynch came from behind and threw his partner out of the ring. She locked in the dis-arm-her on Zelina Vega to get the submission win. Even after the match, John Cena wanted to shake the hands of Becky Lynch. But he instead received a mockery of his ‘you can’t see me’ gesture.

“When Becky Lynch came out there and not only staked her claim but said listen, if I got to go through you to get it, I’ll get it done. When I looked into her eyes, I knew she meant it. And that’s very rare. I hope the other WWE superstars, regardless of gender were paying attention to the attitude of Becky Lynch. Because sometimes, you’ve got to announce your presence with authority.”

John Cena also added that he might have done the same thing during his heyday. But he is no more the marquee superstar and can’t think of doing the same, nowadays. This was his decency to acknowledge that things indeed changed around here. Becky Lynch, on the other hand, continued her rant on the social media towards the franchise player. You can take a glimpse of the post, as given above.
