John Cena could've introduced a hot talent to the main roster like he did for SamiZayn and many others years ago

When John Cena received his free agent status many were confused, many questions arose to how did he even earn it? When can he use it? And why does he have it in the first place?

While Cena has been on the flagship show for the better part of the year, his unsuccessful run on Raw has seen him jump ship to the blue brand where he defeated the WWE Champion AJ Styles on his first night back, thus, earning a chance to compete for the WWE Championship at the 2018 Fastlane PPV.

Therefore, many thought Cena would stay on SmackDown Live for the time being. That is why it was surprising to see the 16 time World champion make an appearance on Raw this week.

While many knew it was WWE trying their best to promote the highly unanticipated Fastlane PPV, Cena was surprisingly involved in a match, and that match was against Goldust. However, the first singles bout between these two veterans surely did disappoint.

WWE should’ve used Cena’s unexpected appearance as an opportunity to give a young talent looking for validation a shot at the glory. Whether it could’ve been TJP, Pete Dunn, The Revival or any other young rising talent that needed a boost of momentum, Cena could’ve been the man that gave them that classic that would’ve launched their career.

WWE wasting yet another appearance from the 16 time World Champion is disappointing, as there is so much they can accomplish on an episode of Raw if they use him right.
