– As noted, WWE confirms that John Cena vs. Roman Reigns will be confirmed for the No Mercy pay-per-view on RAW from Memphis, TN. This was not originally the plan. We found what the deal with that.

The reason why they’re having the match at ‘No Mercy’ instead of ‘Survivor Series’ has to do with transformers. John Cena is playing bumblebee in an upcoming transformers spin-off movie and after the Nakamura bump that he landed on the back of his neck from when Nakamura dropped him on his head. The Production company behind transformers said: “We want zero wrestling during the production of the movie.” Which means that John Cena is not going to be there for ‘Survivor Series’.

So we’re gonna have no John Cena for ‘Survivor Series’. Which we’re going to lean on heavily because someone else who’s missing that ‘Survivor Series is Brock Lesnar. He’s not going to be there either.

So that’s why we’re getting Brock Lesnar Vs. Braun Strowman and John Cena Vs. Roman Reigns on the same PPV at ‘No Mercy’.
