John Cena already announced last year that 2025 will be his final year in WWE, and during the first episode of RAW of 2025, he started his retirement tour. In this eight month period of 2025 so far, Cena has done a lot of things; he has also created records and done something that the fans were waiting to see for over 15 years.
The first thing he did was to turn heel at the Elimination Chamber event last March, after winning the men's Elimination Chamber match. When he was celebrating his victory at the end of the show, he shocked everyone when he attacked the Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, which cemented his heel turn.
Where will John Cena wrestle his final WWE match
At WrestleMania 41, he created history by winning his 17th World Championship, which is the highest number of world titles won by any WWE star as recognised by WWE. He broke the record set by Ric Flair of winning 16 World Championships. This was also his first and only World Championship run as a heel.
John Cena announced already that he will retire by the end of this year
He had the dream title defences during this run against two of his biggest rivals of all time; Randy Orton and CM Punk. But ultimately, before SummerSlam, where he defended his title against Cody Rhodes, he turned babyface again. He dropped the title to Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam, and after dropping the title, he was attacked by the returning Brock Lesnar.
Cena is presently having a feud with Brock Lesnar
It is heavily rumored that Brock Lesnar is going to be the final opponent of John Cena's professional wrestling career, and he will also have his retirement match against Brock Lesnar. Just read that John Cena requested to have this few, and that was the reason Brock Lesnar was brought back.
Despite nothing having been confirmed so far, Bryan Alvarez of Wrestling Observer Newsletter Saturday Night's Main Event show scheduled for December, is going to be hosting the final match of Cena's professional wrestling career. There has been no official confirmation made yet.
