Fightful Select’s Sean Ross Sapp reported in a recent Q&A article that his sources denied a recent rumor about WWE officials current plans to separate John Cena from his record shattering Make-A-Wish for his current heel persona. This rumor had also claimed that WWE had trademarked the phrase “Break-A-Wish” as part of their plans for Cena’s heel run.
Sapp reported that the rumor claiming that it came from Fightful is just a “fake story credited to us” and “it’s not a real thing.” Sapp also reported that WWE officials actual plans for Cena’s heel character and presentation changes is a closely guarded secret within the company.
Besides the debunked “Break-A-Wish” rumor, another rumor involving Cena was also recently debunked. This rumor originated from PWInsider’s Mike Johnson who had initially reported that Cena would be receiving a Lifetime Achievement award as part of a special fan lunch event hosted by On Location on April 19th Las Vegas, Nevada. This special event is limited to just 20 fans at a “five-star restaurant” and a price tag of $25,000 per person.
