5 WWE Superstars John Cena could face at SummerSlam 2021 apart from Roman Reigns

#2 John Cena could challenge WWE Champion Bobby Lashley at SummerSlam 2021

John Cena vs. Bobby Lashley

If John Cena does not go after Roman Reigns, he may end up facing WWE's other world champion. Bobby Lashley has shown incredible dominance since the formation of The Hurt Business last summer, with his WWE Championship reign furthering the dominance of The All Mighty.

The WWE Champion is on a roll and is set to have a big summer. If he keeps the title heading into SummerSlam, he will have a marquee match at the event. Lashley may face Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam, but if The Beast does not return in time, Cena is a good alternative.

Even if he does return, Lesnar could feasibly move to SmackDown and challenge Reigns. John Cena would then take on Bobby Lashley in one of the key matches at SummerSlam. The feud sounds exciting, especially MVP battling it out on promos with the 16-time world champion.

The two have faced each other before, with Lashley's WWE Title match against Cena at The Great American Bash 2007 marking the end of his first run with the company. 14 years on, they are both much bigger stars. Will John Cena get to 17 world titles, though?
