John Cena and CM Punk are set to reignite their legendary rivalry at Night of Champions 2025 in a highly anticipated Undisputed WWE Championship match. The recent pipe bomb promo delivered by the Franchise Player on SmackDown has sent shockwaves through the WWE Universe, with fans eagerly awaiting the clash between these two iconic superstars.
In the aftermath of the electrifying segment, speculation has arisen that former Universal Champion Kevin Owens may make a surprise return at Night of Champions to aid Cena in his battle against CM Punk. Owens, known as The Prizefighter, took to social media to express his support for Cena following the promo, further fueling the rumors of his potential involvement in the championship match.
However, the likelihood of Owens making a comeback at Night of Champions remains uncertain due to his ongoing neck issues and the decision to pursue natural healing methods rather than undergoing surgery. While fans may be eager to see KO back in action, it seems unlikely that he will be able to participate in the upcoming event.
As for Cena’s future challengers, should he emerge victorious against CM Punk, all signs point to Cody Rhodes as a potential contender. The American Nightmare is currently competing in the 2025 King of the Ring tournament and is set to face Jey Uso in the semifinals on an upcoming episode of RAW. If Cody advances to the finals and defeats Randy Orton, he could be next in line to challenge Cena for the championship.
With the landscape of the WWE constantly evolving, the road to Night of Champions is paved with uncertainty and intrigue. As the countdown to the epic showdown between Cena and CM Punk continues, fans can only speculate on what surprises and twists await them at this highly anticipated event.
