Leaked: WWE’s Historic Plans for John Cena’s Retirement Tour Finale
WWE has reportedly finalized plans for John Cena’s anticipated retirement tour, marking the end of a celebrated wrestling career. As the 17-time world champion draws closer to his final matches, fans and commentators have speculated on how WWE will honor his journey in the ring.
John Cena’s Farewell Matches
Cena’s farewell tour begins with a championship storyline. This final stretch could fulfill his long-awaited goal of becoming a Grand Slam Champion. Cena is expected to capture a singles title at Survivor Series on November 29, 2023. The coveted title is believed to be the Intercontinental Championship, currently held by Dominik Mysterio.
Title Match Dynamics
Before Cena can secure this championship, Mysterio must successfully defend his title in a triple threat match against Penta and Rusev. A victory here would pave the way for Cena to challenge Mysterio at Survivor Series.
Prominent wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer has noted that following this potential title win, Gunther is set to be Cena’s farewell opponent. This match would mark Gunther’s return to the ring after losing the World Heavyweight Championship to CM Punk at SummerSlam.
Legacy of John Cena

Former WWE Superstar David Otunga spoke on the challenges of sharing a title reign with Cena, reflecting on his debut title win. He acknowledged that while the experience was prestigious, he felt more pride in his subsequent reign, emphasizing a sense of legitimacy and earned respect.
If everything unfolds as planned, John Cena’s final matches will encapsulate a career filled with monumental achievements. From a milestone title victory at Survivor Series to his emotional farewell against Gunther, this tour will celebrate his significant contributions to wrestling while inspiring future generations.
