Did WWE Just Give Away the WrestleMania 41 Result? John Cena's Schedule Raise Eyebrows
John Cena's post-WWE WrestleMania 41 schedule has sparked speculation among fans. The 16-time World Heavyweight Champion is set to challenge Cody Rhodes for the WWE Undisputed Championship at WrestleMania 41.
Cena earned his title shot by winning the Men's Elimination Chamber match. He stunned fans by turning heel and attacking Rhodes. Before the assault, The Rock offered Rhodes a chance to become his personal champion and give his soul to The Final Boss.
Cody Rhodes refused, and John Cena initially seemed to support his decision, even hugging him. However, after a signal from The Rock, Cena suddenly attacked Rhodes with a low blow. This marks his first heel turn in 20 years and delivers one of the most shocking moments in WWE history.
After turning heel, John Cena, The Rock, and Travis Scott brutally attacked Cody Rhodes, leaving him bloodied in the ring. Reports suggest that Travis Scott slapped Rhodes during the attack, causing an injury.
Despite this, Rhodes is set to appear on the upcoming edition of WWE SmackDown. Meanwhile, Cena is scheduled to appear on WWE RAW on March 17, 24, and 31 in Brussels, Glasgow, and London.
However, WWE recently advertised Cena for SmackDown in May and June, long after WrestleMania 41, which takes place on April 19 and 20 in Las Vegas. This unexpected booking has led fans to question whether Cena will dethrone Rhodes and become the new WWE Undisputed Champion at WrestleMania 41.
WWE recently shared an update on John Cena's schedule after WrestleMania 41. He is currently advertised for SmackDown on May 30 in Knoxville, Tennessee, June 13 in Lexington, Kentucky, and June 20 in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Since John Cena is a part-time star due to his Hollywood commitments, his post-WrestleMania bookings have sparked speculation. With WWE advertising him for SmackDown in May and June, many now question whether Cena will walk out of Las Vegas as the new WWE Undisputed Champion in April. Only time will tell what happens next.

An incredible, timeless performer with an unmatched ability to entertain and bring a smile to anyone he encounters, be it the fans or every single person lucky enough to have had the privilege to work alongside him. His kindness, humility and infectious good nature makes him one of the most beloved people I've met in this industry and the void that his absence will leave in our locker room is immeasurable. I love you, dude.' The Miz, who teamed with Killings as part of 'The Awesome Truth' during a memorable run in 2011, posted to X: 'Forming Awesome Truth with you was one of the best runs of my career.

You're forever a star, a genius, a pro and someone who's presence will always be felt. You're cemented in history as one of the BEST. Love you!!' 3 R-Truth in action against JC Mateo during SmackDown at First Horizon Center on May 30, 2025. WWE via Getty Images Killings' WWE career was notable inside the ring, too.
