Reason For John Cena Taking Time Away From WWE Revealed?

In regards to WWE United States Champion John Cena taking time off after Hell In a Cell this month, wrestling author and reporter Scott Keith wrote the following on his blog. This should be taken as a rumor until confirmed.

"A friend in the fitness industry is working on a fitness-themed reality show for FOX. The show is set to air in the spring. He and a few others were told this week that the filming window is set for Oct. 26 to the first or second week of January, and that it will take 6-8 weeks to do everything. They also found out that the host of the show is going to be John Cena. I'm guessing this explains his rumored hiatus after HIAC."

As noted, Cena isn't scheduled to return until WWE's annual post-Christmas live event tour. Sources have ruled out Cena taking time off for injuries and a wedding to Nikki Bella is highly unlikely.
