At WresteMania 31, Rusev is set to defend his United States Championship title against John Cena.

WrestleZone said the Russian fighter initially refused a rematch, saying that he has already defeated Cena last month at the WWE Fastlane pay-per-view. But this changed when Cena put Rusev in an STF after the latter trash talked the crowd a few days ago and Lana agreed to the fight on behalf of the unconscious champion.

According to Bleacher Report, this match is going to be a turning point for Cena's career though fans are disappointed that he has not been placed on a higher card. It added that his name has already made thousands shout in so many fights in the past, noting that his character is "as polarizing today as it ever has been and he's still the top guy in the company."

"There seems to be no legitimate reason why he's not being used in a top spot, and maybe that's the point," Bleacher Report added.

Some reports have also questioned why he is facing Rusev instead of Seth Rollins and Brock Lesnar since he has worked hard to make a name in the WWE.

Despite these realities, Bleacher Report said that Cena, win or lose, has already reached everything in his career with "no more mountains left to climb." But his fans expect him to still fight the hardest and show Rusev that this time it will be him, this time he will emerge as the winner.

But Rusev, for his part, is also expected to bring something to the match, like what he did when he overpowered Cena at Fastlane. According to an earlier WWE.com report, Rusev has never been pinned in his career prior to their matchup at Fastlane.

Opening the said match with a huge right that rocked Rusev, Cena was not able to maintain showcasing his skills. Rusev used his feet against Cena with the hope of finishing him early.

"Rusev then drove his opponent into the ringside barricade, sending a statement that he was looking to crush his prey for good," added WWE.com in its article.

We will see if Rusev will continue this kind of performance during the rematch.
