The Cenation Leader is usually on a part-time status due to his busy Hollywood schedule. However, due to the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strikes which has halted several Hollywood productions and thus cleared up Cena’s schedule to book more dates in WWE. Furthermore, in recent interviews the 16-time World Champion stated that he would love to show up in WWE every single day. However, with each passing day, it’s becoming progressively harder for him to deliver a good performance in the ring. That being said, it’s not confirmed as of yet whether he will be wrestling at all of his scheduled appearances in the coming weeks.
