World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) has officially announced the retirement of wrestling legend John Cena. The 47-year-old wrestler personally confirmed his retirement during a surprise appearance at the Money in the Bank event in Toronto, Canada, on Saturday.
“Tonight, I announce my retirement from the WWE,” Cena declared to a captivated audience. He revealed that his official retirement from in-ring competition will occur in 2025, with WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas being his final match. Cena also announced that the 2025 Royal Rumble and Elimination Chamber would mark his last appearances in those events.
The 16-time world champion expressed mixed emotions about his decision to retire, reflecting on the incredible “waves of prosperity” he witnessed throughout his career. “WWE is the hottest ticket in town,” Cena remarked, emphasizing the ongoing success and popularity of the industry.
During his heartfelt announcement, the audience responded with chants of “Thank you Cena,” to which he graciously replied, “What an incredible gesture of kindness. I wanna say thank you. Thank you so much for letting me play in the house that you built for so many years. Thank you so much always for your voice because it is so loud and your honesty because it is beautifully brutal.”
Cena’s illustrious wrestling career is paralleled by his success in the acting world, with notable roles in major films such as “Fast & Furious” and “Suicide Squad.” His acting career will continue to be a significant focus for him as he promotes his upcoming movie, “Argylle.”
John Cena’s retirement marks the end of an era for WWE, but his legacy will undoubtedly endure in both the wrestling and entertainment industries.
