John Cena provides surprising update ahead of his final WWE match

Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena is months away from his final match as a performer in the Stamford-based promotion. Recently, The Franchise Player provided a surprising update regarding his final match.

After winning the title at WrestleMania 41, John Cena made it his mission to ruin wrestling by leaving the company and retiring with the Undisputed WWE Championship. The Leader of the Cenation has vowed to end his career in December 2025, when he's slated to have his final match in the promotion before hanging up the wrestling boots.

In an interview with Page Six, the 48-year-old veteran addressed his final run as an in-ring performer and provided a surprising update regarding his final match. The Franchise Player stated that the venue for his last match isn't finalized yet, but he doesn't want to spoil what's going to happen in the future. It was surprising that the venue for Cena's final match ever isn't planned yet, whereas the company often announces venues for events months and years in advance.

"Well, I don't want to downplay the action in WWE. There's always a bunch of action over there. And yes, I'm 48. My last match will be in mid-December. We're still trying to find out a place to do it. I said 36 dates in January. We're halfway through. It's been a lot of compelling TV, and I don't want to spoil it for anybody, but I think we're just getting started," Cena said. (From 00:00 to 00:19)

In an appearance on The Breakfast Club, the 48-year-old star revealed his new role with the company after his retirement. The 17-time world champion will become an ambassador for the promotion when he officially retires from in-ring competition.

"Our last match will be in December, and that's going to be the door shutting on me. Now, I will be an ambassador for the company because my life isn't the same without them. I love the WWE. I love the reach that they have. I love its fan base. So, I'll never not have wrestling in my life," Cena said.

It'll be interesting to see which star will be his final opponent.
