John Cena BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
In the past several days John Cena has been at the absolute center of both WWE and pop culture news with a string of major headlines shaking both wrestling and entertainment circles. To start with the most biographically significant development John Cena has publicly confirmed that he is retiring from in-ring wrestling in 2025 as announced on July 25 at the Money In The Bank event in Toronto according to AOL. This retirement is accompanied by a farewell tour which Cena himself described at Denver's FAN EXPO as the most meaningful run of his career saying it fulfills a promise he made years ago to let the younger talent shine once he started to slow down—a touching full-circle moment for the 17-time world champion as reported by WrestlingNews.co.
Right now Cena is the reigning Undisputed WWE Champion after defeating Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 41 and he has successfully defended the title against Randy Orton and CM Punk Sportskeeda reports. Anticipation for his upcoming rematch with Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam 2025 is at a fever pitch with Cena promoted as the main event for August 2nd and 3rd. Social media went into overdrive after director James Gunn dropped the Peacemaker Season 2 trailer on July 27 with Cena uploading and hyping up the show on X alongside his wrestling schedule. Peacemaker Season 2 will stream on HBO starting August 21—a major cross-media push for Cena who now splits his time between Hollywood and WWE as addressed in a new interview with WrestleZone where he admitted he originally got into acting for the wrong reasons but has now grown into the industry.
In terms of business activity WWE rolled out 11 new live event dates for Raw and SmackDown across the United States with Cena making special appearances including his final Chicago appearance September 5 at Allstate Arena and a return to his home state of Massachusetts on September 15 at the Mass Mutual Center as posted by WWE. His farewell tour schedule is tightly packed with at least 15 matches including SummerSlam, WWE Clash in Paris, Crown Jewel in October, and Survivor Series in November according to Gerweck.net. The last match of his retirement tour is set for December.
Not to be overlooked is Cena’s enormous car collection which caused a social media stir on July 24 with an Instagram post showing off his 2025 garage—over 20 rare and high-performance machines valued at more than $80 million—a snapshot of his success both inside and outside the ring.
Publicly Cena appeared in San Antonio at a local coffeeshop just last week, posing for photos with staff as noted by MySanAntonio. Of course the online wrestling forums are abuzz with speculation that WWE’s creative team may “turn” both Cena and Rhodes at SummerSlam, flipping Cena back to his classic babyface persona and Rhodes into a villain—a move called for by longtime insider Vince Russo but at this moment this is purely speculative according to Sportskeeda.
Lastly on social media platforms Cena continues to trend with clips of challengers like Cody Rhodes calling him out for one last “real” fight, hyping their emotional SummerSlam showdown. All eyes remain on John Cena not just for the swan song of his wrestling run, but for the legacy he’s cementing in both sports and entertainment history.
