Speculations are rife as WWE WrestleMania 40 approaches, hinting at a star-studded event with the possible comeback of John Cena, alongside two legendary figures in Philadelphia, as per recent reports.
There has been ongoing buzz suggesting that The Cenation Leader might grace this year’s Showcase of the Immortals with his presence, aiming for a brief, enjoyable stint that doesn’t interfere with his Hollywood commitments.
However, the feasibility of this plan largely hinges on Cena’s demanding schedule in Tinseltown.
Additionally, there’s talk within WWE circles of reintroducing heavyweights like Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Undertaker, and John Cena to WrestleMania 40 in some capacity.

According to insights from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, while nothing has been officially confirmed, there’s a growing belief that Steve Austin, The Undertaker, and John Cena will play a role at WrestleMania.
However, specific creative directions for Cena and Austin remain uncertain for now, with any potential plans kept tightly under wraps.
WWE is currently in the process of hashing out the finer details, contingent upon their willingness to invest in these potential returns and the legendary wrestlers’ interest in gracing The Grandest Stage of Them All once again.
Expanding on another front, former WWE writer Vince Russo recently shared insights into a unique storyline he pitched involving Vince McMahon and John Cena long before it came to fruition.
Reflecting on his time consulting in 2002, Russo revealed that he proposed an angle involving Cena and McMahon, emphasizing Cena’s potential, which was overlooked at the time.
However, due to McMahon’s preference for delaying such storylines, the idea didn’t materialize immediately, despite Russo’s enthusiasm.
As anticipation builds for WrestleMania 40, fans eagerly await official announcements regarding the potential returns of Cena, The Undertaker, and Austin, or perhaps they’ll be treated to a surprise appearance from these wrestling icons as the event draws near.
