John Cena referred to some CM Punk moments during his promo against Roman Reigns
SummerSlam 2021 has a huge WWE Universal title clash between Roman Reigns and John Cena.
Reigns has dominated WWE since his Tribal Chief character but Cena’s return caught many by surprise.
Cena was put into the title scene almost instantaneously and well, he had a one-on-one conversation with Reigns on SmackDown last week.
Both stars have traded barbs since Cena’s return but the Leader of the Cenation had some choice words for Reigns too.
He brought up a reference to CM Punk about running away with the title, jumping into the crowd and blowing a kiss:
“Roman, you are gonna put on a hell of a show. But I’m just gonna hang in there for 1, 2, 3. And then I’m gonna take your title, jump the barricade and run out of Allegiant Stadium as fast as I can. I may even blow you a kiss goodbye.”
This was something that Punk did to Cena in 2011 during a PPV. The former WWE star took the title from Cena and jumped into the crowd before blowing a kiss to Vince McMahon.
John Cena confirms CM Punk reference
While some would have doubted if this was really a reference to Punk, Cena more or less confirmed that it was after his activity on Instagram.
The former champion shared the photo from the moment where Punk blew a kiss at the PPV, and this was an interesting take before the big match at SummerSlam.
It is to be seen how the fight goes against Reigns at SummerSlam. Cena returning is huge for WWE and SmackDown’s rating for last week’s show was one of the best in 2021.
Cena and Reigns are two of the top talents in the business and this should be one of the best matches of the year.
