John Cena has declared 2025 will be the final year of his WWE career, and his first stop is the Royal Rumble.
While The GOAT hopes to make the most of his year, a win in the men’s Rumble match looks increasingly less likely by the day.
Cena has not appeared on TV since the Raw on Netflix premiere. Too many stars have made better cases, and the world title scene is too complicated to easily slip him in.
This sets up for an unfortunate first loss for the 47-year-old, who can tell the story of his struggle to reckon with what he can still accomplish in his retirement year.
