CM Punk wants to do it one more time with John Cena before he retires from pro wrestling.
At Money In The Bank 2024, both CM Punk and John Cena were present on the card for surprise appearances. For Cena, he was in Toronto to announce that he would be beginning his retirement tour in 2025, and would wrap up his legendary career in December of next year. Punk on the other hand would interfere in Drew McIntyre's cash in of the Money In The Bank briefcase, costing the Scottish Warrior once again.
While speaking at the post Money In The Bank press conference, Punk was asked about Cena's announcement, with Punk noting that he told Cena that the two would do it one last time before Cena hangs up his jorts.
"I texted him right away, and I said, ‘Don’t leave before you say hi to me.’ He text back, ‘Haha, have a good one tonight.’ I immediately took that as, ‘Piss off, I’m leaving.’ I know he’s busy. He’s filming Peacemaker. I figured he was leaving right away. I was pleasantly surprised to run into him afterward. I told him, ‘I’ll be the guy that drags him out of retirement.’ This ‘retirement’ that he says he’s going to adhere to and this is it and when the final one happens that’s going to be it. 15 years, I’ll drag him out of retirement. Cena, to my career, means a lot. I don’t think there is many people up in that rare air, where if you talk about my career, I feel you have to talk about John. It makes me feel proud that I think if you talk about John’s career, I think you have to talk about me. We’re married in that respect. I’m proud of him. He gets to go out on his terms. I know that is important. I’m looking forward to what he does. I told him, ‘If it’s going to be one more time, we have to do it at least one more time.’"
Elsewhere during th post Money In The Bank press conference, John Cena was asked about the allegations of sexual abuse and trafficking made against Vince McMahon. You can read more here.
