John Cena said he was already medically cleared in an interview done at the beginning of the week with Complex Sports.

In the interview, Cena said he felt he could have come back two weeks ago.  He said he can do anything they ask of him to do and when they call, he’ll be there.

“If you ask me today, I should’ve been back two weeks ago.  I’ve logged almost 400 hours of physical therapy.  I got 111 visits in 12 weeks time.  I go every single second I can.  People say I have a Wolverine-like style of recovery.  I was given a nine month quota to come back and after three months I can tell you that I am ready to do asked of me possible.  It’s a matter of when they call me.”

What is notable about that is if Cena’s return was looked at to be a major surprise, he would have never answered the question that way since he’s basically saying he’ll be back imminently.
