<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-text-align-center">John Cena&#8217;s Challenger for Backlash</h2>



<p>John Cena kicked off the April 25 episode of WWE SmackDown but was quickly interrupted by Randy Orton. The Viper had a lot to say following his RKO on RAW, and claimed that he had known Cena for almost 25 years, and in that time, he had never seen this side of him.</p>



<p>Randy claimed that Cena needed to fill the void, and to do that, he should have some kids, because it would make him a better human being. Cena claimed he had spent 25 years raising other people&#8217;s children before shouting at a six-year-old in the audience.</p>



<p>Orton claimed he was here to stay in WWE, and Cena was just a guest, but Cena claimed that he was manipulating him because he was allowed to do other things outside of WWE. </p>



<p>Orton claimed that he was not going to allow him to ruin wrestling, but Cena noted that he would erase Orton&#8217;s family when he leaves WWE and takes the title with him. Orton pushed for Cena to put the title on the line then and there, but he refused. Cena instead pitched a match at Backlash, before assaulting Orton and stomping him down. </p>



<p>Cena went for a shot with the title, but Orton dodged and hit an RKO, before posing with the championship. </p>

<p>Cash Wheeler thanked Hathaway and announced FTR would no longer support Daniel Garcia, claiming they’d put his TNT Title reign above their own goals.

<p>MVP and Benjamin gave MJF a thumbs up—Benjamin doing so only out of respect for MVP. Lashley remained hesitant, prompting MJF to offer him his car. They all walked backstage, where MJF handed over the keys. Lashley and Benjamin got in the car, but Lashley still gave a thumbs down as he drove off, leaving MVP to manage an irate MJF.</p>
