Despite the confusion, the United States championship match will still be opening WrestleMania 39.
Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful was able to get WWE to clarify to him that John Cena vs. Austin Theory will still be opening the show for WrestleMania 39 despite the match being featured as the main event for night 1.
Cena returned to “WWE Raw” on March 6 in front of a home crowd in Massachusetts, but originally declined Theory’s “gift” of a match at WrestleMania 39.
After a little bit of goading, though, which included Theory accusing Cena of giving up on the WWE Universe, he accepted. Should he win Saturday night, he’ll become a six-time United States Champion.
