The Greatest of All Time John Cena is returning at SmackDown​

You can see him! The Greatest of All Time John Cena is set to make an explosive return to SmackDown.

The 16-time World Champion and international film star has made several memorable recent appearances in WWE where he mixed it up with the likes of then-Bloodline allies Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn, Austin Theory and Grayson Waller.

What will happen when The Leader of the Cenation returns to the blue brand one night before WWE Payback?
​

Rey Mysterio & Santos Escobar take on Austin Theory & Grayson Waller​

One night before Rey Mysterio attempts to defend his United States Championship against Austin Theory at WWE Payback, The Legendary Luchador and his LWO protégé Santos Escobar will take on the combination of former titleholder Theory and the outspoken Grayson Waller.

Who will pick up invaluable momentum heading into the Sept. 2 Premium Live Event?
