WWE this week sent a mobile text alert announcing that John Cena will make his return to WWE TV on the Memorial Day edition of WWE Raw, taking place on May 30th.
WWE.com added the following:
“The WWE Universe has not seen Cena compete in a match since January when he injured his shoulder. As he mentioned in the tweet, original projections had him being out of action for upwards of nine months, but following intensive rehab and his surprise appearance at WrestleMania 32, The Leader of The Cenation will defy all expectations and make his official return to WWE next month.
“What impact will Cena’s re-emergence have on WWE? Find out when The 15-time World Champion returns to the longest running episodic program in television history on May 30!”
Cena confirmed the news with a tweet this week that will certainly have captured the imagination of the WWE Universe.
They said the surgery recovery time is 9 months, but I’m ready to go in 5. This #MemorialDay Cena is back on #Raw. #NeverGiveUp
