WWE legend John Cena has revealed his plans to retire from in-ring competition. During his appearance at WWE Money in the Bank in Toronto, Canada, the 16-time world champion announced that he will step away from the sport in 2025.
Cena disclosed that the 2025 Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber, and WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas will mark his final appearances in the ring.
Wearing a “John Cena Farewell Tour 2025” shirt, Cena addressed the fans, saying, “I’ve been in the WWE for over two decades and in that time, I’ve seen incredible waves of prosperity like we got right now. WWE is the hottest ticket in town, no doubt, but I have also seen true hardship, that’s when no one knows your name, nobody wants to be your friend, and only the most dedicated and hardcore fans stand by your side.”
He also mentioned his interest in being involved when Raw moves to Netflix in January.
Cena made his WWE debut in 2002. However, since 2018, he has taken on a more part-time role to focus on his movie career.
