That’s right; John Cena will be one of 29 competitors in the men’s 2025 Royal Rumble. If he wins, he’ll earn a world championship match at Wrestlemania in April — giving him the chance to add a 14th title belt to his cabinet before heading back to Hollywood.

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.

Cena cut a well-received promo on Raw's 6 January Netflix debut. At the start of his retirement year in wrestling, Cena ran through his career - from his early spell as OVW's prototype to the present day - then referenced breaking the record he currently shares with Ric Flair (in WWE canon) and winning a 17th World Championship.
