This week’s episode of Monday Night RAW featured Austin Theory successfully defending the WWE United States Championship against Edge in the main event. After the show, Theory addressed John Cena returning to RAW in Boston, MA on March 6. It appears that Theory has an interesting reception planned for The Champ. He said,
“The headlines now, they certainly read Austin Theory is the now and the forever of the WWE. That little John Cena thing, you know? Two weeks away, Monday Night Raw, John Cena? I can’t wait for that because I can’t wait to bring him home and give him a warm, warm welcome to Monday Night Raw. You want to know why? Because things are a little different around here now. Now, now, the now! Remember that! No more questions!”
Theory will reportedly face Cena at WrestleMania 39 in what could possibly be a passing of the torch match.

We love supporting amazing organizations like this while also doing something fun for our fans at the same time.”
Varon, a seven-time women’s champion during her remarkable career in WWE and TNA/Impact wrestling, said, “We’re so excited about how quickly Dresslemania has grown and continues to get bigger year after year.
