An era came to an end when WWE legend John Cena bid goodbye to professional wrestling last weekend. However, the end has not been without controversies.
The end has not been satisfying to the fans who have had issues with John's entire retirement tour. Days after he called it quits, John Cena has opened up about the finishing leg.
The Rock and Travis Scott were very much a part of the WWE storyline until they weren't. During an episode of What Do You Wanna Talk About? podcast, by Cody Rhodes, retired wrestler John Cena shared how the plans kept changing, "'Hey, you have The Rock and Travis Scott'. Awesome, we can plan all this stuff. 'Hey, you don’t have those two guys anymore'".
John continued with a tinge of frustration, "Not once, not once, did you and I ever—not once, the whole world has had this conversation about like, 'Well, what would it would have been like if the two guys in it with their d–k in the dirt, not once, had a conversation about 'Man, what would it have been like if we had those guys?' No, it was, 'OK, what do you do next?'".
There was a lot of criticism and frustration among fans about how things went down, affecting a very special retirement tour for John Cena. The WWE, however, shared, "Let’s walk down hypothetical street. Let’s say everyone who showed up at the Chamber is active until August. That robs us of John Cena, Randy Orton, that robs us of John Cena, CM Punk, John Cena, Ron Cena, John Cena, AJ Styles, John Cena, Logan Paul, me, and you for the last one".
He further added, "So yes, the story that might have been might have had star power, and gravity, and who knows what, but what we got by just being like 'these are the pieces left'. What we got, for me personally, was beautiful".
After years of entertaining fans from the ring, John Cena, retired from in-ring competition on December 13, 2025 after a match against Gunther.
