Not even the biggest stars in WWE can resist a good Twitter beef.
Sunday, after Battleground went off the air, Cena mentioned Roman Reigns on Twitter saying that the lackluster pay-per-view could have used WWE's Big Dog.
Because technology is miraculous, Reigns responded and took a little swipe at the Battleground show:
Up Next: John Cena Wants Feud With Roman Reigns
Told yall I'm The Big Fight. Heard Philly was a little quiet tonight, better bring their best when we return!! #Raw #MyYard #B2R https://t.co/dETfoN2sXe

When Reigns' says "better bring their best," he could be talking about the Philadelphia fans specifically. Or he may be speaking of WWE needing to improve their product. John Cena only heard the latter:
Pride...always comes before the fall.Don't get too far ahead of yourself young man.But if U want a BigFight careful what u wish for... #RAW https://t.co/oPOTH5gVx2

Young man? Dad Cena is in full effect and he's ready to swat something with a newspaper. Cena's tease would bring out a final Tweet from Reigns:
Real tough guy on Twitter. If u want it, you know the way to MY Yard. #Raw https://t.co/UUSRaQnMVB

Sounds like a challenge to us. John Cena is the only "free agent" in WWE, so if he prefers, he can just pop up on RAW anytime he likes.
As of today, WWE could not draw up a bigger match. Throw in the ramifications of Cena metaphorically handing over the WWE to Reigns after the match and now we have astronomical implications.
As soon as WrestleMania 33 ended, the rumor was for Roman Reigns to fight Brock Lesnar exactly one year later in New Orleans. The idea of involving Cena changes everything, though. From this vantage point, it feels like WWE could not craft a better story. Any deviation from Reigns vs. Cena would simply be foolish.
WWE clearly plans on keeping Cena's options open. The Face that Runs the place will make his WWE return July 4th on SmackDown Live. However, Cena has been given a free agent title which means he will be able to jump between Raw and Smackdown - the only wrestler in the company with that power.
Reigns/Cena feels right, if not inevitable. However, sometimes these dream matches stay in our imagination. In 1992 when it seemed all too logical to have Hulk Hogan vs. Ric Flair at WrestleMania 8, nothing happened. To this day it's seen as one of the biggest missed opportunities in WWE history. However, it's hard to see WWE making the similar mistake twice. Stay tuned, folks.
