WWE Raw from Brussels, Belgium saw John Cena make his highly anticipated return to the ring as a heel, sending shockwaves through the crowd and sparking intense reactions from fans. The scene was set for Cena’s first appearance since turning heel at WWE Elimination Chamber.
A well-received contract signing between Bianca Belair, Iyo Sky, and Rhea Ripley stole the show, showcasing the tension between the three women. In another segment, Cody Rhodes dropped a scathing promo on John Cena, calling out Heel Cena’s whiny behavior and threatening to retire him at WrestleMania 41.
Other highlights from WWE Raw included a dominant win for Penta over Ludwig Kaiser in a No Holds Barred match, Dakota Kai’s victory over Ivy Nile, Jey Uso’s quick defeat of Austin Theory, and Seth Rollins’ underwhelming promo. The night culminated in Bron Breakker emerging victorious against Finn Balor to retain the WWE Intercontinental Championship.
However, it was Penta’s post-match intervention that stole the show, as he handed Breakker the IC Title, setting up a potential showdown between the two at WrestleMania. With Cena’s return sparking controversy and tension among the WWE roster, it remains to be seen how this will play out in the coming weeks.
