# Theory Fires Back At John Cena After Cena Mentions Him In TikTok

We brought you the story of [John Cena mentioning Theory on TikTok](https://wrestletalk.com/news/john-cena-favorite-wwe-star-possible-future-opponent/) as WWE continues to celebrate [Cena Month](https://wrestletalk.com/news/wwe-celebrating-cena-month-in-honor-of-his-20-year-anniversary/) but now Theory has responded.

WWE star turned Hollywood mega star John Cena is celebrating his 20th anniversary with the company all month including chatting with WWE’s official TikTok account where he named Theory and made an ‘watching you’ gesture towards the camera repeatedly in reference to Theory.

Theory has now responded and is not looking to waste any more time, writing:

> “Stop playing dress up and do something then @JohnCena”

Theory continues his run as the United States Champion, for now anyway, as he is set to face Ali at Sunday’s [Hell in a Cell premium life event](https://wrestletalk.com/event/wwe-hell-in-a-cell-2022/) on Peacock.

With notable WWE lore being that Vince McMahon hates it if talent tease matches without a plan for a payoff, could we actually see Theory vs. John Cena sometime in the near future?

Cena and Theory have previously teased a WWE clash, with the current US Champion [sharing a SummerSlam match graphic](https://wrestletalk.com/news/theory-huge-summerslam-match-john-cena/) to Instagram last month.

Theory more recently discussed the possibility of a SummerSlam bout with Cena, which you can read about [right here](https://wrestletalk.com/news/theory-face-john-cena-summerslam/).
