JOHN CENA RETURNS TO WWE RAW — MAJOR MATCH SPARKS FUTURE INTRIGUE

According to reports, John Cena has four matches left in his WWE career. His final match is scheduled for tonight's WWE Raw from the TD Garden in Massachusetts, where he hails from. In early 2025, the 17-time world champion committed to a 36-date tour at locations across the globe as part of his retirement tour.

Cena just has four more in-ring appearances left as his farewell bout, scheduled for December 13 in Washington, DC, approaches. According to sources, he will wrestle at each of them.

For months, John has been booked for tonight's Raw show. At first, it was thought that the 48-year-old would be present to formally launch the 16-man 'Last Time is Now Tournament,' in which the victor would get to face the WWE veteran in his final match.

However, in his second-to-last appearance on the red brand as an active Superstar, Cena is anticipated to accomplish much more, according to BodySlam.net. The report claims that John will compete on the show against Dominik Mysterio for the Intercontinental Championship. That fight had previously been anticipated to happen at Survivor Series in San Diego, Mysterio's hometown.

No matter how tonight's match turns out, Cena is also anticipated to enter the ring at next week's WWE Raw from Madison Square Garden in New York, according to a separate report by Bryan Alvarez of the Wrestling Observer.

Cena's opponent for MSG has not yet been revealed, but things could change following tonight's performance. Although Cena is still anticipated to compete at what will be his final PLE of his career, it is unclear if the schedule adjustment will impact his preparations for Survivor Series.

SCARY SMACKDOWN STUNT FUELS RIDGE HOLLAND AND BIG E COMPARISONS ONLINE

WWE veteran Stevie Richards slammed a dangerous German Suplex spot by Ilja Dragunov on SmackDown, comparing it to the move that broke Big E's neck. He warns that the US Champion's risky style threatens his long-term health.

A recent incident involving Ilja Dragunov has drawn attention to the risky element of wrestling, an art form with delicate margins.

With a recent match against Nathan Frazer as a highlight, Dragunov has upheld Sami Zayn's tradition and continued to defend his recently earned United States Title on SmackDown every week. But according to WWE veteran Stevie Richards, there were a number of dubious situations throughout the fight that he discussed on his YouTube channel.

After a fairly intense fight between Dragunov and Frazer, the champion chose to give the opponent a German Suplex as the action momentarily spilt outside. Stevie Richards was hauntingly reminded of the feared WWE moment when Big E notoriously fractured his neck while taking a belly-to-belly from Ridge Holland several years ago.

Hard bumps on the floor bothered Richards, who also noted that Dragunov murmured something to Frazer before making the move.

This reminds me of Big E and Ridge Holland. Why are you administering such suplexes on the ground? Additionally, he does not mention anything private before acting.

Stevie did not think there were any advantages to having such a dangerous place on a WWE SmackDown show, and he thought the most recent suplex was taken directly from the late Chris Benoit's move set.

He went on:

This is not protected in any way. The Benoit German Suplex is this one. Even if he did not land him on top of his head, the German suplex is still no-give. It is only visible to this side of the audience. Whatever happens with TV, you still have a live audience.

Stevie Richards is worried about WWE US Champion Ilja Dragunov, but he is impressed by Nathan Frazer.

Anyone would consider it a huge deal to compete for a WWE title on SmackDown, and it appears Nathan Frazer took advantage of a unique opportunity. The former NXT star's growth and nuanced moves in the ring, such as making each sequence appear like a real effort, especially impressed Stevie Richards.

Regarding Dragunov, Richards was quite direct in his evaluation, stating that if the WWE United States Champion wanted to have a longer career, he needed to adopt a safer in-ring technique.

By the way, Nathan Frazer has truly impressed me. This youngster is impressive. Dragunov to a certain degree, but I do not think his approach is sustainable for his long-term well-being. He is still doing these risky areas after recovering from surgery and a neck injury.

When can we expect to see Liv Morgan on WWE programming once more?

Following an unfortunate dislocated shoulder injury sustained during the June 16 episode of RAW, the former Women's World Champion has been absent from the WWE Universe. She may return sooner rather than later, though, based on a recent tease.

WWE Superstar Liv Morgan was present at Stranger Things Season 5's red carpet premiere. Morgan believed that Dominik Mysterio, the current double champion and member of The Judgment Day, would be the best WWE Superstar to defeat a Demogorgon.

"As the AAA Mega Champion and the WWE Intercontinental Champion, he can pretty much do anything," Liv Morgan remarked.

Regarding her professional life, Morgan acknowledges that she would be delighted to have Eleven as her tag team partner because she feels the two of them have a lot in common.

"Even after being knocked down, she always gets back stronger and more powerful than before," Liv Morgan remarked. She is the most recognisable. Since I would not have to do any work, she would make the ideal tag team partner. She would go above and above for me.

Morgan did not reveal anything when asked if she would soon be returning to WWE, but she hinted that it might happen soon.

Liv Morgan hinted, "I guess everyone will simply have to watch me."
