John Cena spoke with Canoe.com about his current in-ring absence with WWE while doing a media tour for "Bumblebee". Cena said the following about being gone from WWE for so long, "I do apologize for being away for so long, but I have these wonderful opportunities to try and be a part of another storytelling universe that I truly enjoy, The WWE is the place that for the past 15 years I’ve had the absolute most fun. I very much look forward to getting back there.”
The multi-time WWE champion is slated to begin filming on a new movie January 20 in Vancouver, British Columbia. In the interim, John will be appearing on WWE live events. John said the following on why he made the decision, “I was given the choice of taking one month to catch my breath and live what I would call a normal life. It took me about two seconds to turn that down. On December 26th, I return to Madison Square Garden and do a nice live event run with the WWE right up through the middle of January. None of these shows are televised. I’m literally just doing it because I want to get back to a place I feel most comfortable and to working with people I can call my family. And I want to have some fun.”
Cena commented on the fan reaction the live event appearances will likely get from the fans, "I know that my return is going to come with some mixed opinions — especially because I’ve been away and I’ve got a stupid haircut now — but that’s what’s great about the WWE audience. They are fanatical. They are obsessive. They are loud as hell and it’s going to be a fun experience. I’m glad I can come back.”
