All good things must come to an end. Even in pro wrestling. Although the finish usually can be interrupted a handful of times after careers lead to retirement. John Cena is the latest WWE legend to say he is about to end his ring career. The 17-time world champion will leave the sports entertainment juggernaut after what has been a spectacular farewell tour in 2025. Cena turned heel, something fans wished for over many decades. He's back being a beloved babyface and that is what happens when a good guy gets his comeuppance. Fans can stand by their man -- or woman -- just so long as they are not in-vince-able, pardon the phrasing. Babyfaces need to take beatings and suffer or else that thin line will lead to the audience turning on them. It happened to Cena and his fandom has come full circle. So, how is the final bell going to toll for John Cena and who will he face?

John Cena and Jey Uso and Logan Paul.WWE is doing its best to build drama over who Cena's final opponent will be. There is a 16-person tournament underway to determine the challenger. The perfect answer would be to have a Royal Rumble-gauntlet type event where everyone gets to share the spotlight before another talent comes in after a few minutes. The actual point is that the spotlight should be on Cena, win, lose or draw and the opponent will just be a trivial note in WWE history.
