John Cena and Cody Rhodes will be in the same building for the first time since the Elimination Chamber as WWE Monday Night Raw heads to Brussels, Belgium.
Cena has earned the opportunity to become a record 17-time World Champion at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas next month after outlasting CM Punk, Seth Rollins, Logan Paul, Damian Priest and Drew McIntyre in the Men’s chamber match.
His upcoming showdown with the WWE Undisputed Champion, Rhodes, has certainly increased in anticipation following a shocking conclusion to the Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event (PLE).
After Rhodes emphatically rejected a request from the The Rock, he was attacked by Cena after being lured in for an embrace and was ultimately left laying in the middle of the ring as those in attendance at the Rogers Centre in Toronto, Canada looked on in utter disbelief.
Cena has not appeared live on WWE television since his shocking turn. But Rhodes has. However, the WWE Undisputed Champion made it clear on Smackdown last Friday that he is tired of addressing the attack and wants to confront his WrestleMania opponent face-to-face.
Well, the ‘American Nightmare’ will get his wish on Monday as Cena is scheduled for an appearance.

Set to speak to the WWE universe for the first time since the Elimination Chamber PLE, will Cena offer an explanation as to why he is now aligned to The Rock?
In addition to Cena and Rhodes being under the same roof, four matches have already been announced including an Intercontinental title defence for Bron Breakker as he looks to fend off Finn Balor’s challenge.
Jey Uso, the number one contender for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, has a score to settle with Austin Theory, Penta goes one-on-one with Ludwig Kaiser in a No Holds Barred match and Dakota Kai battles Ivy Nile.
Elsewhere, Seth Rollins has plenty to say after being attacked by Roman Reigns last week, whilst the Women’s World Championship match between Iyo Sky and Bianca Belair at WrestleMania will be made official.
