5 Rookie Superstars Who Should Face John Cena in September 2023

1 years ago By Jhon Woug

John Cena, a true WWE phenomenon, has left an indelible mark on the wrestling world. From his early days as The Doctor of Thuganomics to his legendary battles with the likes of Brock Lesnar, The Undertaker, Rey Mysterio, and the late Eddie Guerrero, Cena’s legacy is etched in gold. As he prepares to make his long-awaited return to SmackDown on September 1st, fans are abuzz with speculation about which new talents might step up to face him. Let’s dive into the top five prospects who could potentially cross paths with the living legend.

  • Trick Williams

The charismatic Trick Williams has captured the hearts of the WWE universe with his impeccable mic skills and undeniable in-ring talent. Despite being on the rookie team for a relatively short time, he has garnered a loyal following. Trick Williams’ physical presence, combined with his ability to work the crowd, makes him the embodiment of a true main event WWE superstar. Should a match between Cena and Williams materialise, the buildup alone could ignite a fire that burns down the house. This potential clash might just bring the iconic dawn of a new era. If there’s anyone who could carry the torch for the future, it’s undoubtedly Trick Williams.

  • Carmelo Hayes

The current NXT champion, Carmelo Hayes, has been on an impressive trajectory. His rise from North American Champion to engaging in feuds with other promising talents like Bronn Breaker has made him a central figure in NXT 2.0. The tantalising possibility of Hayes ascending to the main roster and locking horns with Cena is on the horizon. Such a showdown could serve as a defining moment for Hayes, placing him in the spotlight alongside a 16-time WWE World Champion. While the timing might need careful consideration, Carmelo Hayes is undoubtedly a strong contender to seize the opportunity to face the legendary John Cena.

  • Ilja Dragunov

This is one of the most legit names on this list. If you like seeing a hardcore wrestling match with submissions and suplexes, then you are going to like Ilja Dragunov. One of the fastest-rising names in NXT, whom Cena may face if he does decide to stick around a little longer. This match will be for cult wrestling fans all across the globe.

  • Bronn Breaker

A scion of wrestling royalty, Bronn Breaker has captured attention like wildfire since joining the revamped NXT roster. Boasting both NXT and NXT UK World Championship titles, Breaker is making waves. His recent heel turn adds depth to his character and potentially paves the way for a compelling rivalry with Cena. Breaker’s multifaceted skills align with Cena’s US open challenge era, and a clash between the two could be a defining moment for Breaker’s ascension to the main stage. A tantalising prospect, this matchup holds the potential to set the stage for Breaker’s rise as the next big thing in WWE.

  • Dominick Mysterio

Aptly known as “Hard Dom,” Mysterio Jr. has taken on the role of WWE’s resident heat magnet. His uncanny ability to provoke audience reactions has positioned him as a powerful heel. The NXT North American Champion’s potential clash with Cena carries immense weight. This rivalry could serve as a transformative moment for both stars, with Cena possibly passing the torch to Dominick, who’s slated to be one of the next big antagonists in the WWE universe. The combustible mix of Dominick’s heat and Cena’s legendary status would undoubtedly create a buzz-worthy showdown.

As we eagerly await Cena’s impending return, the wrestling world is buzzing with anticipation over the potential matchups that lie ahead. These five prospects stand on the precipice of greatness, with each having the chance to etch their names alongside the legendary John Cena. Whether through fiery confrontations or monumental clashes, these rising stars are poised to shape the future of WWE in the most thrilling way possible.
