He went on a retirement tour throughout this year, and overall, he had an amazing retirement tour. He granted all the wishes of the WWE fans throughout this dream run.
He had multiple major successes this year, including winning the 17 World Championship and also becoming a Grand Slam Champion for the first time in WWE. To become the Grand Slam champion in WWE, he needed to win the WWE Intercontinental Championship. So he defeated Dominik Mysterio on RAW last month to win the WWE IC title and become a WWE Grand Slam Champion.

His final opponent is yet to be determined
“WWE and wrestling in general – all around the world – and I’ve been around every walk of life in this industry; it’s like Hotel California: you can check out anytime you want, but you can never leave it. He’s embedded in it. He’s always going to be a big part of it, he’s very special to it.”
She also credited Cena for the success of Total Divas, “John wanted to help us girls make that show a success, to the point where like, he even put himself out there. He was a huge part of that show’s success. … When [Tyson Kidd] got injured, John – one thing that John did that was amazing for us and TJ’s morale, is – after TJ got out of the hospital – John took us out for dinner. … He made TJ feel seen and heard and like he wasn’t forgotten.” said Natalya.
