Once upon a time, his promos were considered the highlight of WWE shows, but that magic has been missing in this run since he returned at the Money in the Bank event.

John Cena slams Solo Sikoa on Smackdown
On last week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown, Paul Heyman delivered a promo in which he warned John Cena about the consequences of facing The Bloodline member Solo Sikoa. Responding to Heyman’s statement, Sikoa claimed that Cena would be unable to use his voice after their fight at WWE Crown Jewel 2023. However, the leader of Cenation remained unfazed by Solo Sikoa’s remarks and used his greatest weapon, his voice, to deliver a scathing 90-second promo.
In the latest episode of SmackDown, Sikoa made his way to the ring with Heyman by his side. Once they entered the ring, Sikoa shared the instructions he had received from his Tribal Chief. He addressed John Cena and expressed his frustration since he would have to wait until the next day to face him.
The order given by Roman Reigns was to hand over the microphone to Cena so that he could say goodbye to the audience before it was too late. Getting furious over that statement, John Cena delivered a cutting promo where he confidently claimed that he could still defeat Solo Sikoa in just 90 seconds and also accused Sikoa of only getting his job because of his famous cousin.
The greatest wrestler of WWE also mocked Sikoa for his self-proclaimed status as a tough enforcer, likening him to “a cheap imitation of wrestler Taz”. After that, Cena ended the segment by saying, “So do me a favor, Solo. Tape your thumb up extra tight, because it’s only getting stuck up your ass tomorrow. Yeah, that was about 90 seconds,” and then left the ring. Solo Sikoa and Paul Heyman were left stunned by such a heated promo.
Many fans felt excited after witnessing such an energetic promo from Cena after so many months, and they were also delighted by the fact that he taught Sikoa a lesson.On Twitter, one fan’s tweet gained significant attention when they wrote, “Cena cooked his ass with a bad throat lmao.” The fan’s tweet is provided below:
