The retirement match of John Cena in WWE marked the end of an era as he faced off against Gunther at Saturday Night’s Main Event XLII. The outcome was a shock to many as The Ring General emerged victorious by submitting The Cenation Leader, leaving a stain of defeat on Cena’s illustrious career.
Following his monumental win over the 17-time champion, Michael Cole, the official veteran voice of WWE, bestowed Gunther with a new moniker – “Certified Career Killer.” This title reflects Gunther’s impressive year, having defeated two wrestling legends in their farewell matches, namely Goldberg and John Cena. It is evident that WWE is placing its bets on The Ring General to be the new face of the promotion, signaling a passing of the torch from the iconic stars of yesteryears.
Despite Cena’s official retirement from in-ring competition, he remains an ambassador for WWE, known for his loyalty and legendary appearances on major shows. However, fans should not anticipate Cena’s immediate return to WWE television, as the promotion has officially listed him on the alumni page, indicating that his current contract may have expired, and he could potentially sign a legends deal with the company.
The focus now shifts to Gunther as he basks in the glory of his victory over John Cena, one of the most revered figures in WWE history. It remains to be seen what plans the creative team led by Triple H has in store for the former World Heavyweight Champion and when fans can expect to see The Cenation Leader make a cameo appearance for the promotion.
In conclusion, while Cena’s in-ring career may have concluded, his legacy in WWE endures, and the emergence of new talents like Gunther paves the way for an exciting future in professional wrestling. Stay tuned to Sportskeeda for all the latest WWE news and updates.
