John Cena returns for the final WWE SmackDown of 2022 on Friday December 30 teaming with Kevin Owens to take on Roman Reigns & Sami Zayn.
Following the revelation on the December 16 episode of SmackDown that Owens had texted Cena (with a variety of emojis) about not having a match in 2022, Owens has now discussed the type of conversations the pair have had.
Speaking to Peter Rosenberg on the Cheap Heat podcast, Owens said:
“We text here and there.
“The text messages…I’m not going to say that I actually use the emojis that he described, but it’s a lot like that.
“We talk about some silly stuff.
“‘Remember when we had this match and this happened,’ stuff like that.
“We haven’t really discussed the upcoming SmackDown just yet.”
With SmackDown only a few days away, Owens also revealed the early morning message he received from Cena:
“He’s very excited.
“The last text I got from him was, ‘I LOVE WRESTLING’ in all caps.
“Unprompted.
“I don’t know what he was doing.
“No idea.
“I think it was 1 AM.
“I don’t know where he was in the world.”
The final episode of SmackDown for 2022 will feature more than just a Cena appearance, with a title match also on the card.
