John Cena had a surprise appearance at Money in the Bank 2024 in Toronto. The hostess of the PLE revealed him to the masses, and the crowd went wild. The energy was brought down a notch when Cena revealed the real reason for being present in the arena. The 16-time WWE Champion announced his retirement. After announcing the same, he also revealed that he would be present at Monday Night Raw when it moves to Netflix. Additionally, WrestleMania 41 will be the last Mania of his career.
Hearing this on live TV, WWE stars have jumped on the opportunity, trying to entice the fans into asking WWE to make these matches happen.
At first, we have Baron Corbin, who has shared a storied rivalry with John Cena. He tweeted how he wishes to have a piece of the WWE legend before he finally retires from wrestling altogether.

The current generation giant, Omos, also called out the former WWE Champion as he is virtually shouting for the Stamford-based company to give him a match with Cena. Although we don’t know when this could take place, if fans show interest in the same, it may happen.
GIVE ME CENA!!!!

Grayson Waller, who has once feuded with John Cena for a brief amount of time, also jumped on the opportunity, potentially asking for some in-ring action with him before he leaves. These two have also faced each other in recent times, making this possibility relevant for the fans.

While these matches would be a sight to witness, the long-term fans of The Cenation Leader might want him to wrestle an old rival to put an end to his wrestling run.
Who could be John Cena’s likely rival at WrestleMania 2025?
The Hollywood-superstar has made several foes in the leading wrestling promotion during his evergreen run as one of the most popular babyfaces. This is when he also encountered other superstars like Dwayne Johnson, Randy Orton, and AJ Styles, who can be considered some of his greatest foes. The wrestling legend doesn’t have much time left on his hands before he wrestles his final match in WWE. The time always flies by and we will soon find ourselves in WrestleMania season again in 2025. So, it is possible that the promotion will soon start planning his final foe.

Since Cena’s story with The Rock was wrapped up during their final championship match together, it is unlikely that the promotion will bring it up again just for one final match. Although there is no ‘unfinished’ business left between either of his rivals, we might see him go up against Randy Orton since he is an active wrestler on the roster and fans would probably like to see the two wrestle again. But if the favor is in Styles’ corner, it wouldn’t be bad booking either.
Would you prefer to see John Cena against his old foes or the new ones for his WrestleMania 41 match in Vegas?
