Backstage Update on Plans For John Cena’s Nexus Angle

The plan right now is for John Cena’s ongoing angle with Nexus to last through the early part of 2011, says a report in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.

Although WWE has not figured out the week-to-week structure for the angle, in which Cena, against his will, has been forced to join and support The Nexus, sources say the company has a definitive plan in place for the angle’s conclusion.

That conclusion is tentatively scheduled for January, with whatever ultimately happens being used as fuel for a WrestleMania feud.

WWE has at least discussed the idea of turning Cena heel, but the general feeling is that angles like this are better served for getting a babyface over as a stronger babyface.
