John Cena’s In-Ring Return Status for WWE RAW Netflix Debut CONFIRMED

WWE legend John Cena is set to kick off his highly anticipated retirement tour on the January 6, 2025, debut of Monday Night RAW on Netflix. However, Cena’s in-ring status for the event has been clarified, dashing some fan expectations.

WWE Confirms Cena Won’t Wrestle on Netflix Premiere

According to WrestleVotes, Cena is unlikely to wrestle on the Netflix premiere of RAW despite rumors of a possible match against Logan Paul. WWE officials have emphasized that a bout involving Cena would require significant promotion, which is not feasible for the January 6 show.

While there is mutual interest in a Cena vs. Logan Paul matchup, WWE reportedly prefers to save Cena for a more high-profile event later in the year. Previous reports indicate that WWE management would rather have Cena face a seasoned opponent for his farewell match than someone with limited wrestling experience.

Cena’s Role on RAW’s Netflix Debut

Although Cena is not slated to compete, his appearance on RAW will likely set the stage for future rivalries during his farewell tour, which is scheduled to run through December 2025. WWE fans can expect an emotionally charged segment where Cena addresses his legacy and outlines what’s to come on his final journey in WWE.

Fan Speculation on Cena’s Opponents

The WWE Universe is buzzing with predictions about who Cena might face during his retirement tour. While names like Logan Paul have been floated, fans are also eager to see Cena go head-to-head with other iconic stars such as Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, or even The Rock.

Cena’s farewell tour represents a pivotal moment in WWE history, and the company is taking steps to ensure that each appearance delivers memorable moments.

A New Era for RAW on Netflix

As WWE prepares to make history with its Netflix debut, Cena’s involvement underscores the significance of this milestone. Fans are eagerly anticipating how WWE will use this opportunity to elevate both Cena’s legacy and its programming.
