3 possible feuds for John Cena in 2019

John Cena is one of the greatest wrestlers of this generation, and he returned to WWE after a hiatus. Cena appeared on the first Smackdown Live episode of the year, and also appeared on Raw this week, which was the first Raw episode of the year. Cena is scheduled to take part in Royal Rumble this month, and he is one of the favourites to win.

Cena made his WWE debut in 2002, and his career achievement is astonishing. He has won a record number of titles in his career. He won the tag team titles four times, US title five times, and is a sixteen time World Champion. However, Cena is not a Grand Slam champion, as he needs to win the Intercontinental title to obtain the feat.

Cena has won the WWE world title a record sixteen times, and he is a joint record holder with Ric Flair. Hence, he needs one more WWE title reign to win the most number of WWE titles in history. Cena also won the Money in the Bank once, and the Royal Rumble match twice in his career.

Presently, Cena performs as a part-timer, but he might participate in big PPVs of the year. WWE's ratings were substandard last year, and Cena's inclusion will definitely help to improve the ratings. He has a bright chance to become the Intercontinental Champion, and he might become the Grand Slam champion this year. Moreover, he could also win his seventeenth WWE title.

Several elite superstars might face Cena this year. Here we discuss 3 possible candidates who can have a feud with the 16-time WWE Champion.

#3 Drew McIntyre

Drew McIntyre

Drew McIntyre could be an exciting opponent for John Cena, as he has established himself as a top guy. McIntyre performs on Raw, and he had an impressive segment with John Cena this week which led to a 6-man tag team match. The segment suggests that the two superstars might have a rivalry.

McIntyre has a long history in WWE. His first WWE run started in 2009, but his first tenure was substandard. He was also part of the stable 3MB, which had Heath Slater and Jinder Mahal. McIntyre was released in 2014.

Afterwards, he earned a reputation in the indies and came back to WWE in 2017 and became the NXT champion. In fact, he made his main roster return after Wrestlemania 34, and he has become a key superstar of the Raw. McIntyre won the Intercontinental title once and tag team titles twice. As a matter of fact, he won the Raw tag team titles with Dolph Ziggler last year.

McIntyre is certainly a favourite candidate to win the Royal Rumble. However, Cena and McIntyre could start a fresh feud if he manages to eliminate Cena in the Royal Rumble match. McIntyre can reach a new stature in his career if he can pin John Cena.

#2 Daniel Bryan

The WWE Champion Daniel Bryan

Daniel Bryan could have a feud with John Cena this year, and it will be entertaining for the WWE Universe. Bryan is the current WWE Champion, and he is scheduled to defend his title against AJ Styles at the Royal Rumble. His WWE title run has been awe-inspiring, and he has a good chance to hold the title for a long time.

Bryan had a rough start of his WWE career, and he struggled to attain notable success in his early days. Nevertheless, his Yes movement gained massive popularity and helped him to become a top guy of the company. He main-evented Wrestlemania 30, where he defeated Batista and Randy Orton to win the WWE World Heavyweight title.

Bryan is undeniably one of the best technical wrestlers of WWE, and he has won several titles in his WWE career. He won the US title once, the Intercontinental title once, tag team titles once and the WWE title five times. He also won the Money in the Bank contract once. Bryan is currently one of the best heels of the company, and his Yes movement is dead.

Cena might have defeated many legendary superstars, but he never pinned Daniel Bryan. Hence, he will be aiming to beat Bryan this year and win his 17th WWE title if Bryan stays champion.

#1 Undertaker

The Phenom

John Cena already faced the Undertaker last year, but the rivalry could continue this year. The Phenom squashed Cena in less than three minutes at Wrestlemania 34, and it was an embarrassing defeat in Cena's career. As a result, Cena might take vengeance at Wrestlemania 35.

The Undertaker is considered one of the greatest wrestlers in WWE history, and he has massive popularity. He has been wrestling in WWE for 29 years, and he has created a gigantic legacy in his long career.

Presently, Undertaker fights occasionally, but his matches are always enthralling for the WWE Universe. Undertaker faced numerous elite superstars in his career, and he also faced John Cena a couple of times. He won the tag team titles seven times, Hardcore title once, the world title three times, and the WWE title four times. However, Undertaker's most remarkable feat was the Wrestlemania streak, which was broken by Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania 30.

The 53-year old iconic wrestler is in the twilight of his career. He has a bright chance to retire this year, and John Cena could be a great choice to retire him at Wrestlemania 35.
