The WWE Universe was fully behind Truth, and they probably will be in Tampa as well when he takes on Cena. The match may not headline the show as no title is on the line, but it could very well be the opener.
The feud has essentially been singlehandedly carried by Truth. Fans only saw a few brief interactions between the two stars, but the veteran ultimately helped John Cena defeat Randy Orton at Backlash 2025 without even realizing it. It was following this that he was put through the table in the post-show Press Conference.
It's going to be interesting to see what the fallout of this all is going to be.
