John Cena has been absent from WWE television in recent weeks, and a new report provides an explanation. Cena appeared at the WWE RAW on Netflix premiere on January 6th. There, he kicked off his farewell tour and declared for the Men’s Royal Rumble match.

After nearly two decades as the face of WWE, Cena will hang it up at the end of 2025. That means he will compete at the Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber, and WrestleMania for the final time. There is a chance that he will also compete at SummerSlam as well in August.

John Cena would be interested in starring opposite CM Punk in a movie role. While speaking with Cena for an interview published on Thursday, Collider asked which WWE wrestler he’d most like to work with in an action-comedy film. Cena named Punk as his answer, saying he thinks fans would like to see their dynamic play out on screen.
