WWE icon John Cena is officially embarking on his farewell tour, set to kick off in early 2025. The 16-time world champion, who revealed his retirement plans at Money in the Bank in July 2024, will make his first appearance on WWE’s Netflix debut of Monday Night Raw on January 6. Cena’s tour will include approximately 36 dates around the world, culminating in his final WWE appearance in December 2025. The retirement tour will also mark his last Royal Rumble on February 1 in Indianapolis—a fitting farewell as Cena, a two-time Rumble winner, sets his sights on history.

Throughout his career, Cena has become a WWE staple, known for memorable rivalries and record-breaking moments. With 16 world titles under his belt, he is now just one victory away from surpassing Ric Flair’s legendary championship record. Cena’s farewell season promises an emotional ride for wrestling fans worldwide, building toward his final WrestleMania appearance at WrestleMania 41, his last Mania main event.
