“I don’t have much time left”: WWE megastar John Cena prepares his fans for the final end of his wrestling career

He is the record-breaking champion in the WWE, was the biggest star there for many years and the money-printing machine par excellence. The wrestling empire calls John Cena the “GOAT” by default, the greatest of all time – in the eyes of those in charge, he is also greater than Hulk Hogan, Bret Hart, Steve Austin, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, the Undertaker.

Like his colleague and former rival Johnson, Cena is now a full-time Hollywood actor, but he still appears in the ring for WWE at irregular intervals.

Now, however, Cena is getting his fans in the mood more clearly than ever: Soon this will be over!

John Cena plans to end his career with WWE

“I turned 47 last year and I don’t have much time left in WWE,” Cena makes clear in an interview with People: “I’m just trying to figure out when I’m going to close that chapter. “

The 16-time WWE and World Champion explains: “I wouldn’t be who I am without WWE – professionally and personally – and I swore to myself that I would never want to stay there for purely selfish motives. “

He always tries to “give everything for my audience – and I have to admit that’s why I started working on my exit strategy when I was 45. “

“Doing what’s best for the company “

Cena ended his full-time career a few years ago, ushering in the twilight of the gods, and Roman Reigns has been at the top of the division ever since – who has also begun to scale back his workload and look towards Hollywood.

Cena last had a lengthy interlude with WWE in the fall – aided by the writers’ strike in the film industry – at the Saudi Arabian event Crown Jewel, WWE pitted him against the up-and-coming talent Solo Sikoa and let the latter win in dominant fashion.

How and when Cena wants to hang up his shoes for good, he left open. “I just want to do what’s best for the company,” he said, “Whether it’s a big last match or just one last match or whatever I can do to make everybody realize that the chapter is over: I’ll listen to what WWE has to say. “
