That said, according to one source, if that\u2019s the direction, it\u2019s been kept very quiet behind the scenes.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>That\u2019s a major shift from earlier speculation pointing directly at Club WWE being the focus of Cena\u2019s appearance. Cena kicked off the hype earlier this week when he claimed his Backlash announcement could change WWE itself.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cIn just a few days, I have a major announcement inside this building that is going to shock the very foundation of WWE. From its fans to its superstars, champions down to its rookies.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>He followed that up by calling it \u201chistory-making news\u201d that would change the WWE experience for fans and talent alike.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cI am SO excited to break some history-making news! I can\u2019t promise it\u2019ll be perfect but I can promise it will change the WWE experience for Superstars and fans!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Now, with WWE apparently keeping details locked down backstage, fans are back to guessing what Cena is really about to reveal at Backlash. Whatever it is, WWE clearly wants people talking heading into the event.<\/p>\n<p>What do you think John Cena\u2019s big WWE Backlash announcement really is?
