Possible update on why John Cena is set to miss this year's SummerSlam

John Cena recently celebrated his 20th anniversary in WWE. At one point, it seemed like he was ready to return to in-ring action at this year's SummerSlam.

So far, though, WWE hasn't confirmed a match involving Cena, despite him interacting with the likes of Theory and Seth Rollins on Monday Night RAW a few weeks ago.

Speaking on Wrestling Observer Live, Bryan Alvarez cited a potential reason as to why Cena won't be competing at this year's SummerSlam. According to him, the multi-time WWE Champion is involved in filming DC Comics' TV show "Peacemaker".

Alvarez said:

"I can confirm that being filmed right now is Peacemaker 2 and John Cena is involved," Bryan Alvarez said. "He's working on Peacemaker 2 as we speak. I presume that's why there have been discussions of him doing SummerSlam but then he showed up on Raw to announce 'someday I'll be back. I don't know when, don't know where but I'll be back someday.' Apparently, he's filming Peacemaker and that's why he can't do SummerSlam."

It now remains to be seen when Cena's next match in WWE will take place.
