John Cena advertised for WWE Crown Jewel

John Cena is being advertised for WWE’s next event in Saudi Arabia.

The social media accounts for Saudi Arabia’s Riyadh Season posted a video on Saturday promoting this year’s state-sponsored festival. In the video, it was said that WWE Crown Jewel will include “the participation of John Cena.”

Crown Jewel is taking place on Saturday, November 4 and will stream live on Peacock/WWE Network.

Cena made his return to WWE at the beginning of this month. He’s set to appear on every SmackDown from now through the end of October.

Cena’s return to WWE coincides with the Hollywood writers and actors strike, which has halted most film and television production.

On Friday night’s episode of SmackDown, Cena was a guest on The Grayson Waller Effect. After Jimmy Uso crashed the segment, the show ended with AJ Styles saving Cena from Uso and Solo Sikoa. Cena and Styles joined together to fight off the attack.

Cena also reunited with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in a backstage segment on Friday’s SmackDown.

There is still one WWE PPV left before Crown Jewel. Indianapolis will host Fastlane on Saturday, October 7.
