John Cena will begin his farewell tour next month, starting with the premiere episode of WWE RAW on Netflix.
2025 will mark Cena’s final year as an active wrestler in WWE, culminating in his last matches at Elimination Chamber: Toronto, Royal Rumble 2025, and WrestleMania 41. This has sparked curiosity about his final opponent at The Showcase Of Immortals.
According to a report from WrestleVotes, a match between Cena and former WWE United States Champion Logan Paul was initially considered for WrestleMania 41.
However, although the Cena vs. Paul match has been talked about, it reportedly faced “resounding disapproval” from various members of WWE’s creative team.
The prevailing sentiment is that this matchup should not be Cena’s last at WrestleMania.
The report states, “Sources indicate recent rumors of Logan Paul vs. John Cena at WrestleMania have, at the very least, been discussed.” The report continues, “However, the idea has been met with resounding disapproval from several within creative. The general feeling is that this shouldn’t be Cena’s final WrestleMania match.”
As we previously reported here on eWn, Paul announced his official arrival on the RAW roster and proclaimed himself a future “WWE World Champion” during the RAW on Netflix Kickoff event.
Cena’s farewell tour is planned to extend through December 2025 and will showcase the final matches of his WWE career.
