Speaking to Extra, Cena commented on The Rock potentially returning to WWE.

“I'd love it. First and foremost, I'm a WWE performer, but I'm also, at heart, a fan. I love The Rock, I love The Rock, and so do millions and millions of people. I think he would warm so many hearts if he came back. If there is anyone that has a greater sense of empathy of what he is trying to accomplish… I am trying to juggle everything and I haven’t been back in three and a half years and… I’m one thirty-sixth as busy as he is. For him to still be thinking about that, I think that is really special and really cool. I know he knows the effect his return would have and I think that’s also really special," said Cena. "I think you have to pay homage to those who paved the way, and without Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, I wouldn't be here in this goofy costume, so thanks.”

The Rock has been mum on his WWE future, recently saying there is nothing to tease regarding a potential return.

As for Cena, he is set to headline WWE SummerSlam against Roman Reigns.
