While WWE has kept relatively quiet on the matter, multiple outlets have reported that John Cena underwent surgery to repair a broken nose last week. The injury, suffered when Seth Rollins drilled him in the face with a flying knee during a match on Monday Night Raw, will likely keep him out of action for at least a few more weeks.
But, despite the fact that he's been told to slow down and heal up, Cena is still doing whatever training he can in advance of his latest too-soon return from a significant injury:
It was 'suggested' I 'slow down' for a few weeks. I'm sure this is what 'they' meant. #NGU #whowillyoubetoday pic.twitter.com/VVJzksyIPI

I will be the guy who actually listens to his doctors, which is why I'm not John Cena, I suppose. Also, genetics. Whatever.
It's still expected that Cena will wrestle Rollins for both the US and WWE world heavyweight championships at SummerSlam on Aug. 23, 2015, in Brooklyn, New York. He's not advertised to return to television until Raw six days before that.
From the looks of it, there's no doubt he'll be ready to go.
