According to PWInsider.com’s Mike Johnson, 15-time WWE Champion John Cena will have shoulder surgery and will miss this year’s WrestleMania.
Since the report, Cena has confirmed it on Twitter:
This injury will reportedly keep Cena out for 6-9 months. Cena’s injury is just the latest in a string of injuries to top WWE stars (Seth Rollins, Randy Orton) and mid-level talents like Cesaro in recent months, thinning out the roster.
Cena just returned from a short absence off TV as he was filming a reality series for FOX. He was expected to continue his feud with U.S. Champion Alberto Del Rio.
