The Farewell Tour of John Cena
After one of the most recognisable characters in WWE history, John Cena, announced his retirement tour at the Money in the Bank event, the wrestling community is in a state of flux. After being a mainstay of the WWE for over twenty years, Cena said that WrestleMania 41 will be the pinnacle of his remarkable career. But before the big show ends, Cena will still be appearing in 30 to 40 events, so fans won’t have to say goodbye just yet. Without a doubt, WWE is doing all in its power to make sure that John Cena’s exit is as unforgettable as his career.
From the Viewpoint of Chris Jericho
Chris Jericho, an AEW star and veteran of over thirty years in the wrestling industry, commented on Cena’s upcoming retirement after the news of Cena’s retirement. In an exclusive AEW Dynamite episode, Jericho commemorated his thirty years in professional wrestling and provided a unique viewpoint on what it means to put up the boots after such a legendary career.
During his appearance on the McGuire on Wrestling podcast, Jericho was questioned on his response to Cena’s retirement tour. When the interviewer said that Jericho’s career will outlast Cena’s, Jericho spoke with his customary wisdom and humility.
A Great Connection with the Fans
“My career has already surpassed John Cena’s in length. No, it’s really fantastic. I think that’s a wonderful way to go about it, because John’s always had a tremendous passion for wrestling, and he has a great relationship with the people,” Jericho said. He underlined that Cena’s choice to go on a retirement tour is a reflection of his close relationship with the professional wrestling community and his desire to repay the supporters who have helped him along the way.
A Considerate Exit Strategy
“John isn’t the kind of man to make casual remarks, so I’m sure he’s been working with the corporation to make sure this is done well. People know this is it. For both John Cena and his fans, I’m confident the next year and a half will be absolutely amazing, “said Jericho. His remarks emphasise how carefully Cena has planned and how dedicated he is to making sure his farewell tour is an appropriate homage to his career.
A Legendary Rivalry
WWE fans will never forget the memorable events that resulted from Jericho and Cena’s several meetings in the ring. They fought in a WWE Championship Match at SummerSlam 2005, which was one of their most memorable meetings. In their most recent bout, which Cena won, they competed at the 2013 Royal Rumble. Jericho respects Cena clearly because he knows the ability and commitment that Cena brought to each game.
What’s Next for Cena and the WWE
While Cena gets ready for his last year and a half with WWE, rumours are swirling regarding the milestones he could hit on his way to retirement. A possible 17th World Title reign has been discussed, making Cena the wrestler with the most world titles in WWE history. An accomplishment of this kind would be a worthy conclusion to a career full of amazing highs and unforgettable experiences.
Cena’s retirement tour presents a challenge as well as an opportunity for WWE. It’s an opportunity to honour one of the greatest wrestlers of all time, but it also signifies the end of an era. To make sure that Cena’s goodbye is as magnificent as his career has been, the corporation probably won’t hold back.
Jericho’s Onward Travels
Chris Jericho, in the meantime, is still doing well in AEW and is exhibiting the same drive and commitment that have defined his career. His thoughts on Cena’s retirement tour provide insight into the regard and companionship that elite wrestlers, even from different organisations, have for one another.
