WWE superstar John Cena has confirmed his participation in the upcoming 2025 Royal Rumble, scheduled for February 1, at Indianapolis’ Lucas Oil Stadium.
This event will mark a pivotal moment in Cena’s illustrious career as he approaches his previously announced retirement from in-ring competition.
Last July, during WWE Money in the Bank, John Cena revealed his plans to retire in 2025, setting the stage for a farewell tour that would culminate at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas on April 19 and 20. As part of this farewell, John Cena announced that the 2025 Royal Rumble would be his last appearance at the iconic event, a statement that has now been solidified with his latest confirmation.
While it remains unclear whether Cena will participate in the traditional 30-man Royal Rumble match or compete in a separate bout, his presence at the event is guaranteed. Fans are eagerly anticipating what could be one of the final chapters in the career of the 16-time world champion.
Cena’s history with the Royal Rumble is storied and significant. He has twice emerged victorious in the event, first in 2008 and again in 2013.
Despite stepping away from in-ring competition, Cena has assured fans that his relationship with WWE will continue. He has agreed to remain involved with the company “for an extended time to come,” ensuring that his influence and presence will endure beyond his active wrestling days.
Cena’s farewell tour kicks off when the first-ever Raw on Netflix will take place at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles. Cena has confirmed his attendance at this historic event, which will serve as a prelude to his final Royal Rumble appearance.
