Only 6 months left — Here's who John Cena could still face before WWE retirement!

Image via WWE John Cena 's farewell tour kicked off in January 2025 after he revealed he would retire this year at the 2024 Money in the Bank PLE. Since then, The Never Seen 17 has turned his back on the fans, won his record-breaking 17th World title, and had some remarkable matches. Cena has faced the likes of Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton, and R-Truth so far with only six months left on the last leg of his illustrious WWE career. As the clock ticks down on Cena's farewell tour, here are the top three matches that can still happen for The Cenation Leader: 3. AJ Styles — GrappleClips (@GrappleClips) The wrestling world erupted when AJ Styles and John Cena came face-to-face for the first time in WWE back in 2016. This led to a series of exciting matches between two of the biggest names in professional wrestling. Moreover, it was at the 2017 Royal Rumble event that Cena defeated Styles to tie Ric Flair's record of 16 World Championships. With Cena's farewell tour already midway through, WWE could revisit that historic rivalry one last time by booking a blockbuster match between The Champ and The Phenomenal One at a major WWE Premium Live Event. 2. Gunther Gunther is one of the rising forces in the modern era of the WWE landscape. He recently won his second World Championship from Jey Uso and regained his momentum. Moreover, he is also set to face another legend, Goldberg, in his retirement match at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event. Should he remain the World Champion till WWE Crown Jewel PLE and Cena remains the WWE Champion, this could set a huge 'Champion vs Champion' collision between them for the Crown Jewel Championship, much like last year. 1. Seth Rollins Seth Rollins is operating on a completely different level with Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker, and Bronson Reed on his side. Moreover, he currently holds the Money in the Bank contract, which almost guarantees him a World Championship win. Not only that, Rollins has teased cashing in his briefcase on John Cena on RAW and then at the Fanatics Fest. The two top competitors faced each other in the mid-2010s when Rollins was coming up as a singles performer. Having said that, there is a strong possibility that a last Cena vs Rollins match would take place for the Undisputed WWE Championship at a top WWE PLE.
