The final match of John Cena is closing in, and the anticipation is reaching the sky. The ongoing tournament to determine his final opponent is getting more and more exciting, but Gunther remains the favourite to win the tournament and become the final opponent of The Greatest of All Time.

It is believed that John Cena will pass the torch to Gunther in his final match, and it will also establish that the Ring General has one of the biggest names in WWE. But before that event, he would have to defend his WWE Intercontinental Championship against Dominik Mysterio at Survivor Series this Saturday, where Mysterio stands as the favourite to take the title away from Cena.

John Cena only has two more appearances left in his contract, and the final match is definitely going to be one hell of an experience. And after seeing his performance at Crown Jewel Perth against AJ Styles, expectations for his final match are endless. Once again, we can expect a match of a lifetime. If it seriously turns out to be Gunther, everybody knows what he is capable of in the ring.

Other wrestlers also had high advantages of winning this tournament, like Solo Sikoa and LA Knight, but the chances of Gunther winning this tournament are higher than anyone, and it looks like this dream match is actually happening. WWE Hall of Famer Bubba Ray Dudley recently talked about the final match of John Cena and explained how it should be booked. Speaking on the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, he explained the following;

Gunther is rumoured to be his final opponent

“I have no problem with John starting off the show in D.C., having the match, maybe passing the torch to GUNTHER, and then being seen throughout the night with some of the other talent. I believe John’s mission on his last night is to be able to come in contact with and share the spotlight with as many talents as he possibly can, just to give them the rub, just to share the spotlight with. Obviously, whoever wins the tournament is getting the majority portion of that spotlight, and well deserved.”

“I’m going to go back to one name that we’ve been talking about for about a month, Joe Hendry,” Ray said. “This will be Joe Hendry’s last chance to ever be seen in a shot with John Cena. Nowhere near what we had suggested. And after watching NXT on Tuesday night, the opening match, in which Ethan Page and Chelsea Green looked phenomenal in their match against Joe Hendry and Thea Hail. Joe and Thea didn’t look that great.” said WWE Hall of Famer Bubba Ray Dudley.
