John Cena is expected to add two more names to the John Cena Classic during tonight’s WWE SmackDown, and the early run sheet has given away who could be getting the invitations. The November 13, 2026 episode of WWE SmackDown will feature Cena continuing to recruit talent for his December event, with Fatal Influence now part of those plans.
According to the early run sheet, Cena is scheduled to invite Fatal Influence to the John Cena Classic during a backstage segment. That puts Fallon Henley and Lainey Reid in line to receive invitations, although WWE hasn’t officially announced them as participants yet.
Fatal Influence also includes Jacy Jayne, who is scheduled to face Charlotte Flair on tonight’s show. The rundown doesn’t clarify whether Jayne will receive an invitation alongside Henley and Reid or if Cena’s offer is specifically for the tag team.
Cena has been making the rounds on WWE television to personally invite wrestlers to the December 14 event. So far, five names have been officially confirmed:
- Cody Rhodes
- Zilla Fatu
- Noam Dar
- Romeo Moreno
- Kelani Jordan
As Ringside News previously covered, Cena invited Dar and Moreno during the November 10 episode of NXT. He also invited NXT Women’s Champion Kelani Jordan that same night.
The John Cena Classic takes place December 14 at Disney’s ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando, Florida. The event will air on Netflix as a special episode of Monday Night RAW, with main roster wrestlers facing NXT talent.
