John Cena comments on his upcoming retirement.
John Cena is set to embark on his retirement tour in 2025, working from January to December as he says goodbye to fans one last time.
Speaking to ExtraTV, Cena was asked about his retirement, and if it will be bittersweet for him.
"It's going to be fun. Not bittersweet for me, it's going to be fun. I'm so grateful that I'm in a position where I still have my health and I'm able to carve out a large section of time and perform for a year, from January to December, and give everyone a heads up. A lot of times in WWE, sometimes injuries force retirement all of a sudden. One day you're there, the next day you're gone, or sometimes you say you're going to retire and it's part of the bit. You attack somebody and get a shot at the championship. This is my way, for an audience that has made me who I am, after 23 years of investment, to say, 'Hey, I'm going to give you six months, that's your warning. In January, we're going on tour and in December, I'm hanging them up. Let's all get together at various spots around the world the next calendar year and get loud and rowdy one more time,'" he said.
Cena has said that he will be part of the WWE Raw premiere on Netflix and WrestleMania 41.
Cena is set to star in "Jackpot," which hits Amazon Prime Video on August 15.
