WWE legend John Cena appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon this week, and the 16-time World Champion opened up about his upcoming retirement, the creative plans for his farewell matches, and his role in Peacemaker Season 2.
Cena’s appearance comes just days after his shocking loss at SummerSlam, where Brock Lesnar made a stunning return to attack him — leading many fans to believe the two would meet again. But as Cena revealed on the show, that’s not the plan.
John Cena Confirms His WWE Retirement Timeline
Cena didn’t hold back when addressing his career’s final stretch.
“It’s been incredible… people are finally understanding — I’m done in December.”
This reaffirms what Cena has said on other platforms: December 2025 will mark his final WWE match. Fans can expect the rest of the year to be filled with nostalgia, emotion, and high-stakes encounters.
No Brock Lesnar for His Farewell Tour
Despite the buzz following Brock Lesnar’s SummerSlam attack, Cena shut down rumors that “The Beast” would be his next opponent.
“My next opponent isn’t Brock Lesnar. WWE has a very specific plan for my last run.”
This confirms that WWE has different storylines lined up for Cena, possibly revisiting other rivalries before he hangs up his boots.
Working Closely with Triple H for Final Matches
Cena revealed that he’s actively collaborating with Triple H and WWE’s creative team to make sure his farewell tour feels special.
“We’re making sure every match counts and that the fans get the most exciting send-off possible.”
This suggests that WWE’s long-term booking for Cena’s final matches will be carefully crafted to satisfy both new and longtime fans.
The Peacemaker Secret Was Easy to Keep
Switching to his Hollywood career, Cena also discussed filming Peacemaker Season 2.
“They were all focused on the farewell tour — I just had to smile and change the subject.”
Cena will juggle his WWE farewell schedule with promoting the new season, keeping his star power strong in both industries.
A Farewell Grounded in Gratitude
Closing out the interview, Cena shared heartfelt thanks to the WWE Universe.
“They’ve been with me for over 20 years. I owe it to them to go out in a way they’ll never forget.”
