It has been reported that John Cena will not be part of the WWE Crown Jewel event and his replacement for the World Cup tournament has been reportedly revealed.

It has been stated, countless times in recent weeks that despite being advertised as a participant in the WWE World Cup, John Cena is refusing to be part of the show which takes place in Saudi Arabia next Friday.

Whilst WWE is still advertising Cena as a participant in the tournament which also features; Randy Orton, Jeff Hardy, Rey Mysterio, The Miz, Kurt Angle, Dolph Ziggler, and Seth Rollins, he is not actually expected to take part.

According to the Wrestle Votes Twitter account, the currently planned replacement is going to be Bobby Lashley. This would be an interesting choice as Lashley is currently working through an injury, but more will likely be revealed this Monday on WWE Raw.
