John Cena’s anticipated clash with Brock Lesnar won’t take place at WWE Clash in Paris later this month, but it remains a possibility for later in the year. During the August 11 episode of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer shared that WWE is saving the high-profile Cena vs. Lesnar match for the fall. While Cena was developing a storyline involving Lesnar, Meltzer was surprised when WWE decided to have Cena face Paris’s Logan Paul instead.
Meltzer clarified that this switch doesn’t mean the Lesnar match is canceled. He explained that WWE is featuring Logan Paul in Paris, even though the original plan involved Lesnar. The match with Lesnar is expected to happen sometime between September and November.
If WWE holds off on the Cena vs. Lesnar showdown until the fall, fans could witness one of the biggest matches of the year during Cena’s farewell tour. With Cena’s contract nearing its end, every appearance has become highly significant, and adding “The Beast Incarnate” into the mix promises a thrilling event.
