John Cena is retiring from WWE “despite any speculation or rumors,” the wrestler reiterated on social media.
The Peacemaker star has set his final match date for later this year and nothing is changing that.
“Despite any speculation or rumors, on July 6, 2024 I announced I would retire from WWE in ring participation. I am far from perfect but strive to be a person whose word has value,” Cena shared in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter. “12/13/25 will be my final match. I am beyond grateful for every moment WWE has given me. I am excited for 12/13 & look forward to seeing all of you one last time.”
On July 6, 2024, Cena made a surprise appearance at the Money in the Bank event in Canada, officially announcing his retirement from the WWE.
“Why am I here? Tonight, I officially announce my retirement from the WWE,” he said.
He would later on say, “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’s really loud, and your honesty, because it’s beautifully brutal. And most of all, thank you so much for allowing me to be with you here tonight to let the whole world know that we are planning something unforgettable, which also involves me returning to Toronto to kick some ass!”
After a year of doing WWE events, Cena confirmed that his last event would be WWE’s Saturday Night’s Main Event taking place on December 13 at the Monumental Sports & Entertainment’s Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C.
