John Cena’s retirement tour in WWE has become a significant topic of conversation, especially following his memorable match against AJ Styles at Crown Jewel. With only four matches left before he hangs up his boots, excitement among fans is palpable as they eagerly anticipate which opponents he will face.
Speculation is rampant, with fans suggesting that Cena could take on notable AEW talents such as Chris Jericho and Adam “Edge” Copeland. Meanwhile, Natalya Neidhart, a seasoned WWE star, weighed in on her preferences for Cena’s final opponents during an appearance on the Busted Open Podcast.
Getting emotional about Cena’s impending retirement, Natalya expressed her hopes for Cena to battle Gunther and Dominik Mysterio, both of whom have been in the conversation among fans regarding worthy opponents. However, she surprised listeners with her addition of The Rock and The Miz to her list.
She expressed a strong desire to see The Rock return for an iconic rematch, emphasizing the historical significance of their rivalry. Furthermore, Natalya praised The Miz, highlighting his reliability and the chemistry they share in the ring, which has been showcased in their previous encounters. “He’s the guy that, if you want to get something off the ground, in my opinion, you turn to Miz,” she stated, noting his impressive and uninterrupted career in WWE.
When discussing Cena’s final match outcome, Natalya shared her insights about Cena’s character, suggesting he would prioritize giving back to the sport over winning. “Knowing John Cena and the kind of person that he is, I think he would probably refuse to win. He’s always about passing the torch,” she remarked.
As Cena continues his farewell tour, he has already faced a number of his legendary rivals, yet a rematch with either The Miz or The Rock is still on the horizon. With the final matches drawing near, the WWE universe watches in anticipation of what promises to be a fitting conclusion to Cena’s storied career. This retirement tour not only honors Cena’s legacy but also ignites the passion and excitement of wrestling fans as they look forward to potentially unforgettable showdowns.
