John Cena vs. AJ Styles, Cena Shirt Pulled and Top WWE News from Week of June 4

Following the huge recent announcement of the return of the brand extension and SmackDown going live on Tuesday nights, the past week has been much slower in the news department.

Let's take a look at some of the biggest stories from the last seven days.

Muhammad Ali Dies

A bit of sad news hit Friday, when NBC News reported the death of one of the greatest boxers of all time, Muhammad Ali.

Ali, born Cassius Clay, has more accomplishments to his name than can be listed in a single article, among them being an Olympic gold medal, three World Heavyweight Championships and 37 Sports Illustrated covers.

Ali also served as the special guest referee for the main event at the first WrestleMania, featuring Hulk Hogan and Mr. T battling Paul Orndorff and Roddy Piper.

The word "legend" may not have been invented for Muhammad Ali but there's no one else it describes better...What a life!

One of his most unique credits is a victory over Superman in a special issue from DC Comics, which saw The Man of Steel deactivate his powers to see which fighter would claim the mantle of Earth's greatest champion.

In what is considered a precursor to modern MMA, Ali fought wrestling legend Antonio Inoki to a draw in Tokyo in 1976. It may have been a publicity stunt, but it was fun to watch.

WWE usually reserves tribute videos for former wrestlers who have died, but it wouldn't be surprising to see an exception made during Monday's Raw. Rest in peace, Muhammad Ali.

Dream Match Scheduled for Money in the Bank

We have to lighten the mood a bit after the last story, and what better way to do that than to mention how two of the biggest wrestling Superstars in the world will finally step into the ring together.

WWE.com has confirmed that at this year's Money in the Bank pay-per-view, John Cena, the man who has led WWE for more than a decade, will take on AJ Styles, the face of TNA for almost as long, for the first time.

Management could have waited until WrestleMania to give fans something this big, but the company opted to boost a B-level PPV with what is one of the most anticipated matches in years.

Styles and Cena are polar opposites in almost every way, but the thing they share is a deep passion for pro wrestling.

Regardless of how you feel about both men, it's hard to imagine any wrestling fan not being excited about seeing two of the most recognizable names in the business engaging in what should be an outstanding contest.

John Cena Shirt Pulled

A new John Cena shirt bearing a strong resemblance to the Pabst Blue Ribbon logo has been pulled after the brewer threatened legal action, according to Sean Ross Sapp of Wrestling Inc.

This isn't the first time one of Cena's shirts has been inspired by another company. One of his previous designs was clearly a reference to John Deere, and another was an obvious homage to the AWA logo.

The new design still looks a bit like the old one, but there is enough difference between the two that PBR wouldn't be able to claim trademark infringement.

The Rock to Play World's 1st Superhero

The Rock is one of the busiest men in Hollywood, and he is about to add another credit to his growing resume. He announced through his Instagram account he will soon be playing Clark "Doc" Savage.

For those of you who are unfamiliar, Doc Savage is considered by many to be the first proper superhero, even predating Superman.

Savage was the spiritual predecessor to characters such as Batman because he did not possess any powers, instead using his physical skills, intellect and a slew of futuristic gadgets to defeat his enemies, many of which have since become reality.

The Rock will also portray Shazam villain Black Adam in an upcoming film based on the DC superhero, making Doc Savage the second comic-book character he will portray on the silver screen.

This isn't the first time Savage has been adapted for a film. Ron Ely played him in the 1975 flick Doc Savage: The Man of Bronze. Check out the trailer for the original in the video above.

Goldberg in WWE 2K17

WWE's Twitter account had been teasing an announcement for weeks by posting cryptic images along with the hashtag #Hatch, and we finally found out what it all meant during Raw on May 30.

Bill Goldberg will appear in WWE 2K17 as a special pre-order bonus. The former WCW champion has been in a few WWE video games before, but this is the first time he will be included in three years.

Goldberg's run with WWE was disappointing for fans who watched him storm through everyone in WCW during the Monday Night Wars, but he is still remembered for his undefeated streak and being one of the few new talents to get over during the nWo years.

The WWE Universe has been wondering whether Goldberg would return for a final match, and while being included in a video game doesn't mean he will actually wrestle, this news has given fans hope he could make one last appearance to end his career the right way.

What do you think? Should Goldberg return for one final match? Which Superstar do you think he should face if he does?
