John Cena shocked the world by turning heel during his farewell tour at the Elimination Chamber PLE. He is currently in his 17th reign as WWE world champion and has vowed to ruin professional wrestling. However, Cena might turn back into a babyface soon after hearing the heartbreaking news of R-Truth's WWE release.
The Last Real Champion faced off against R-Truth at Saturday Night's Main Event. This match was made official after Truth interfered in the John Cena vs. Randy Orton match at Backlash, following which Cena put Truth through a table during the post-show press conference.
Cena beat Truth in the match, but hesitated to use the championship belt against him, before ultimately hitting him with a low blow to pin him. After Truth's release, Cena could start blaming himself for this incident as he defeated him in his last TV special match.
The guilt could overpower Cena and push him towards becoming his older self. Cena could finally turn back into a babyface, potentially around SummerSlam. He could also push WWE to rehire Truth after this to pay for his actions.

While this is all speculation, it will be interesting to see whether John Cena blames himself for Truth's release.
