John Cena
's final chapter in
WWE
is officially moving forward, and fans are getting more emotional with every update. After years of unforgettable matches and historic moments, the 17-time world champion is slowly saying goodbye. Now, after his big win at Backlash 2025, the location for his final match has been confirmed. And it is a special place for him.
The exciting news came right after Cena defended his title against longtime rival
Randy Orton
in a dramatic main event. The match had chaos, surprises, and a twist no one saw coming. But the biggest news of the night came from outside the ring. A news report has now confirmed that the final match of John Cena will happen in Boston, Massachusetts, this December.
John Cena wins at Backlash and then charges on R-Truth
Backlash 2025 ended with one of the most discussed matches in recent months.
John Cena
faced
Randy Orton
, a superstar he has fought many times in the past. This match felt like a throwback to their prime. Both men hit their finishing moves, and the crowd was fully behind them.
During the match,
R-Truth
suddenly ran in and stopped Orton from attacking Cena. Orton quickly hit Truth with an RKO, but the distraction gave Cena just enough time to take control and win the match. It was a shocking end, but what happened after was even more surprising.
Later, during the official WWE Backlash press conference, R-Truth showed up again to offer his support. But Cena did not accept it kindly. He slammed Truth through a table, making it clear he did not want help from anyone. This moment could lead to a possible match between them in the future.
John Cena's last Match will be in Boston this December
The biggest news came from a local news station in Boston after the Backlash. They shared where Cena will wrestle for the final time in WWE. This moment will be the end of his legendary career.
'John Cena's last match is scheduled for December at the TD Garden in Boston.'
This was announced by reporter Shayna Seymour on WCVB.
Although the exact day was not given, another report from Cory Hays at PW Nexus said that WWE has a show at TD Garden on December 13. That is likely when Cena will wrestle one last time. This is a special choice because Cena was born and raised in Massachusetts, and it's where his WWE story began.
John Cena is now on his retirement tour with 24 dates left. Most of them are appearances, not matches. Still, every step is bringing fans closer to the end. With his last match set for Boston, fans are ready to give him the send-off he truly deserves.

I still want to represent DC in IPL 2026: Aussie quick Mitchell Starc
Australia's pace spearhead Mitchell Starc has made it clear that he remains committed to the Delhi Capitals franchise and hopes to return for the 2026 edition of the Indian Premier League, despite his absence from the latter half of IPL 2025. Starc opted not to rejoin the Capitals after the tournament resumed post a 10-day suspension due to Operation Sindoor—India's counter-response to a terror attack in Pahalgam. While many Australian cricketers returned, Starc stayed back, citing personal reservations around safety and insufficient clarity at the time. The veteran quick emphasised that his decision was grounded in personal comfort and awareness of the broader situation rather than any lack of commitment to his IPL team. 'I'm happy to stand by what I felt was the right call for me,' he shared. Security and Uncertainty Prompted Decision Starc admitted he had concerns even before Delhi Capitals' 8 May match against Punjab Kings in Dharamsala, a fixture that was eventually abandoned after a power failure led to an emergency evacuation. The match's proximity to the international border only added to his unease, especially with wife Alyssa Healy present in the stands. The left-arm quick said the event reinforced his doubts and helped him reach a firm decision not to return when the tournament resumed. Repercussions Don't Worry Me, Says Starc Acknowledging that some may view his choice critically, Starc said he is prepared to face any consequences. 'Time will tell how it's perceived, but I stand by it,' he said, adding that different players had different comfort levels and situations, and he respected each individual decision. Lack of Information a Key Factor Starc stressed that a lack of timely and reliable information regarding the situation was a major influence. After returning home, he weighed the risks and decided to shift focus towards Test cricket, especially with the World Test Championship final against South Africa at Lord's on the horizon. Still Loyal to Delhi Capitals Despite the unexpected break, Starc reiterated his loyalty to Delhi Capitals. He said he has never been one to withdraw lightly from a tournament after being selected at auction and that his decision came under exceptional circumstances. 'I still want to be part of this group,' he said, hinting at a strong desire to return next season and continue his IPL journey with the Capitals. Australia Focused Ahead of WTC Final Looking ahead to Australia's WTC final, Starc said the team would stick to their strengths and continue playing their brand of cricket. 'We won't be changing how we play,' he remarked, confident that their tactical consistency will serve them well against South Africa.

WWE Money in the Bank 2025 predictions: 3 superstars unlikely to win the MITB ladder match
Image via WWE WWE Money in the Bank briefcase might not be in the destiny of some selected individuals this year. WWE has been producing some of the most stellar and mesmerizing PLEs ever since 2025 started. Following their last success, Backlash, the radar has shifted to their next Premium Live Event, Money in the Bank. The show is set to take place on June 7th at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California. The event will feature two explosive matches and the annual Money in the Bank ladder matches for the women's and men's divisions. Both sides have some top talents scheduled to compete for the coveted briefcase, which is almost a guarantee for a future World title reign. However, looking at this year's field, here are the top three WWE superstars unlikely to win the Money in the Bank ladder match: 3. Penta The start of the Netflix era on Monday Night RAW saw the arrival of former AEW star Penta. The luchador came with the intention to become a top singles performer after being a part of tag team wrestling for years. Moreover, he has proven his worth as an exciting attraction who has also competed in several high-stakes bout. However, WWE did not pull the trigger on Penta's victory in any of those matches. With Money in the Bank of a similar magnitude, it is unlikely that Triple H will give him the win, but rather take more time to build him up in WWE. 2. Alexa Bliss Alexa Bliss received one of the loudest pops in WWE history upon her return to the company after two years. She had a good start to her tenure, but disappeared from television and missed the entire WrestleMania season. She came back to SmackDown a few weeks ago and qualified for the Money in the Bank ladder. However, with ups and downs, Bliss, already being a former MITB winner and accomplished athlete, and most importantly, emerging stars like Roxanne Perez and Stephanie Vaquer in the match, Bliss is not looking to walk out the winner for a second time this year. 1. LA Knight LA Knight is one of the most popular WWE superstars on the current roster, and it is evident from the loud cheers he gets every time he makes an appearance. However, even at the height of his rise in 2023, when he was the heavy favorite to win Money in the Bank, WWE did not make that decision. Moreover, a new report by Vince Russo has stated that WWE CCO Triple H is not a fan of his work despite the fans' desire to see him succeed. This makes LA Knight's chances very bleak to win the match this year. Also read: What is John Cena's net worth in 2025? Current salary and more explored
