John Cena announces tournament to determine final WWE opponent; Major tease made at SNME

The Goat is set to retire in just 1 month!

John Cena officially had a video package at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, once again confirming his in-ring career is coming to an end.

Speaking to an emotional crowd, the 17-time world champion reflected on his journey and said he made a promise to walk away when he could no longer perform at the level the WWE Universe deserves. Cena made it clear this decision was not about nostalgia but about respecting the business and his fans.

He stated that he will not wrestle again after his upcoming farewell match. The announcement drew loud cheers from the audience, with many recognizing that they were witnessing the end of an era. Cena’s speech carried both humility and pride, marking the beginning of his final chapter in WWE.

John Cena reveals a tournament to determine his last opponent

In a major twist, John Cena revealed that his final opponent will not be chosen by him or WWE management. Instead, it will be determined through a 16-man tournament that begins November 10 in Boston, the city where his WWE career began more than two decades ago.

The upcoming tournament will feature top names from Raw, SmackDown, NXT, and even competitors from outside WWE. A video package aired highlighting several of the entrants, including Dominik Mysterio, Rusev, Penta, Drew McIntyre, and Gunther. Cena emphasized that his farewell match will be earned, not gifted, setting the stage for one of the most competitive lineups in years.

This announcement has already generated huge buzz across the wrestling world. It ensures that Cena’s final bout will not only celebrate his legacy but also showcase the next generation of talent capable of carrying WWE forward.

Dominik Mysterio could miss out on John Cena’s farewell match

Dominik Mysterio’s name has been floated as a potential finalist in the tournament, but his spot is far from guaranteed. The Intercontinental Champion has been on a dominant run in recent months, defeating top contenders such as AJ Styles.

However, his triple-threat title defense against Penta and Rusev at Saturday Night’s Main Event could change everything.

With Mysterio retaining the championship, it still looks difficult that he will be facing Cena with the tournament on board. Still, given his current standing in WWE, the young star remains a strong candidate to face Cena in what would be a symbolic passing of the torch.
