— Daniel Bryan has been moved from the “B’ shows to the “A” shows on the house show loops now that Cena is out due to injury.
— While John Cena and WWE are both publicly claiming that they expect Cena back by WrestleMania 30, the real expectation is that he will be able to make it back in time for the Royal Rumble, which is just under five months. That is believed to be pushing his recovery time slightly, something Cena has a habit of doing when coming back from injury.
