John Cena To Compete In Last Royal Rumble Match Of His Career At WWE Royal Rumble PLE

John Cena has officially confirmed that the 2025 Royal Rumble will be his final appearance in the iconic match. In a post shared via WWE’s X (formerly Twitter), Cena revealed that his upcoming participation in the Royal Rumble on February 1, 2025, at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis will mark the last time he competes in the event.

Cena, who previously announced that 2025 would be his final year as an active WWE performer, made sure to emphasize the significance of the moment, calling it a “history-making” event.

“In 2025, there will be myriad of history-making events,” Cena said. “The last time I will ever compete in a Royal Rumble event is February 1, Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana, and you want to make sure you’re there. It is my last Royal Rumble as the road to WrestleMania kicks off, February 1 at Lucas Oil Stadium, Indianapolis, Indiana. Act fast as tickets are on sale this Friday. The last time is now and you should hurry up because after this, you can’t see me.”

While it’s unclear if Cena will appear in any matches prior to the Rumble, speculation continues to swirl, especially given the upcoming shift for WWE Raw to Netflix in January. Cena has an extensive legacy in the Royal Rumble match, having competed in it eight times since his debut in 2003. He won the match in both 2008 and 2013, and has had several notable finishes, including runner-up spots in 2005 and 2010 and third place in 2018.

This announcement adds even more excitement to the road to WrestleMania 40, with fans eager to see Cena one last time in one of WWE’s most anticipated annual events.
