An old rivalry will be rekindled at WWE Live Manila when John Cena battles the Big Show on September 9 at Mall of Asia Arena.

After Tuesday’s shock announcement of the 15-time world champion’s inclusion to the already stacked roster of wrestlers coming to PH’s shores, the face that runs the place will now be bracing against the World’s Largest Athlete when they return to the country in about a month.

Cena will be joining the bevy of Raw superstars, headlined by Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, Finn Balor, and Chris Jericho, when the WWE returns to the Philippines for the first time in seven years.

Also in the match card are the WWE Tag Team Champions The New Day, new WWE Women’s Champion Sasha Banks, Charlotte, bitter rivals Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn, Cesaro, Sheamus, The Club members Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson, Neville, Bo Dallas and Curtis Axel, the Golden Truth, and the Shining Stars.

Show was just in the country last Tuesday in a one-day promotional tour, treating fans to a meet-and-greet session to hype up the event.

Cena and Show has had numerous encounters in the past, most memorably their match at WrestleMania XX for the United States Championship where Cena made himself a legitimate star, lifting the then-500-pound giant for an Attitude Adjustment.
