Billi Bhatti and sportskeeda.com, John Cena is currently penciled in to face Jinder Mahal for the WWE title at Summerslam. Cena will return on the July 4th edition of Smackdown, where he will be placed into an altercation with Mahal.
This altercation will take place during a championship program between Mahal and another Superstar that will culminate at WWE Battleground.
