You can literally hear the pain in his voice when he’s speaking, he knows his time is up, but he loves the fans so much he wants to give em one last Mania Memory.
Who says his time is up? Just because he's almost turning 50 doesn't mean he's too old to retire. Rey is still wrestling in his 50's. Ric Flair continued to wrestle past his 50's and so did Undertaker.
I am born in the early 90's and I grew up watching Cena in my teens and him along with Randy Orton and HHH were my top 3 WWE Superstars back in the day.
when he was the face of the company, at least half the audience was booing him. Now that he's retiring you guys wanna act like he was always loved? let's no rewrite history
@@stopplzs to be honest. cena from debut to say end 2009 was goated. but for a few years after that he was booked as super cena and was burying everyone, it was annoying. it wasnt until 2013 where he started to put stars over etc.
@@zanescaliaYup, everything changed after his second match with Lesnar when Brock squashed him. Up until that point Cena had been annoying to watch cause you just knew he was going to win every single feud.
23 years of being in WWE cena. 16 time world champion. 5, United States champion. 2, Tag team champion. 2, Royal Rumble winner. And Money in the bank winner. You are one of the greatest WWE superstar in history. From Thomas Lowry from Belfast. Thank you John Cena.🙂👍
I chuckled when that reporter inquired about Cena's career being HOF worthy to HHH at the MITB press conference, and he nonchalantly responded, "Um, yeah. 🤨"
as cheesy as it may sound - when I was a young kid I didn’t have the best role models in my life. my father wasn’t the best parent and I was left alone to deal with life at a really young age. bullying, depression, and lack of support was a lot to take on as a child. but wrestling - specifically John Cena - gave me a foundation to build my mindset off of. whether it’s never give up or hustle, loyalty, respect - I owe it to this man for helping me find my inner strength and mottos to life at such a young age. I’ll be sad to see him retire, but he deserves his flowers. I hope he has the best send off ever - and i’m grateful to have watched him as I grew up. Never Give Up 🖤
When Mysterio, Orton, Punk, Sheamus, Styles retire, that's when I'll stop watching WWE. They are different from others who have no substitute. When Austin, HBK, HHH retired, and the Undertaker was part time, I barely watched WWE anymore but because of Cena, Mysterio, Orton, Punk, Sheamus, Styles and a little bit of Rollins and Roman, I had some hope of being with WWE and watching a little bit. Now that Cena has announced his retirement, I'm sure it will be time for me to stop watching WWE in the near future as well. When the time comes, that's when I feel very sad because the glory days of WWE are completely gone.
@@user-tk4bn6rn1f We all say that man, but don't count out this upcoming generation between WWE and AEW. There will be another talisman of the new era. Wrestling always has a way of bringing us back as fans.

I met John Cena at Comic Con with R-Truth. They were walking the floor without any security, he was probably the most sincerest person I’ve met in terms of famous people. I grew up watching him and it’s going to be such an emotional moment for me when he retires.
All the people who "hated" him used to like him they were just sick of the super Cena era , if they made him into a heel people wouldn't have been such haters for a while, but everyone recognizes his greatness
Hmm he might. But most likely would put his time in WWE to bed. Alot of speculation as to what awaits Cena post WWE. I know he has his acting gig and doing that full time but who know with WWE @@lightmohamed5700
The man carried WWE on his back for YEARS...after Stone Cold and The Rock were gone this man led the company into a new Era. Were there other greats there during that time ..yes but he was THE MAN.
Stop it.. he wasn't the only one.. He had other mates as well who were more present than he has been... Have u forgotten Randy? The Miz? Rey Misterio etc..

Young Cena to veterans: "Your time is up. My time is now." *Old Cena to next generation: "My time is up. Your time is now."* Edit: Appreciate the support. But don’t be sad. Be bittersweet. Remember everyone, it’s our time to make the decisions to enjoy life. Don’t wait until it’s too late. Remember that Cena has never turned heel in his entire career. A legend that we all witnessed.
Athletes retire but entertainers never do. Every single WWE Superstar "retires" but they don't ever truly stop showing up from time to time until they're actually dead

This is actually such a cool way to go out, he's doing a Michael Jordan Last Dance series, WWE version. Now that we know this is his last run, everything he does is going to be historically impactful. Enjoy this last run folks
This man better be in the Hall of Fame by next year. He’s done so so much for WWE, hate him or love him, he held that company up for a decade or longer.
well I think he'll be in the Hall of Fame because he just announced his retirement and he will retire from the company he been in for the past 20 years 😢😮. I respect John Cena. I just can't believe he's retiring from the business he loved for 20 long years. goodbye Cena. I wish you goodbyes.
@6:56 with the fans echoing in the back ground got me. Cena and wwe got me through a tough childhood.. watching wwe was my comfort show growing up. It’s just great to see him getting the love he deserves.
I just cannot believe this is it, we’re at the end of John Cena’s career. Feels like it was just 2005 and Chris Jericho brought out John Cena on the Highlight Reel after he was drafted to Raw. The huge pop the spinner belt, life was good. Now that will soon be 20 years ago and we’re fighting tears wishing that Cena didn’t have to go. I wish I could go back.
Man I remember that. Watched it live and it was in my hometown St. Louis! I just turned 10 and Cena was my favorite wrestler. I wish I could go back to those days it was so much fun! 😢
@@Gameboy-Unboxings Speak for yourself. I understand you may have been older but as a kid I loved it and loved it even more when I got a replica for my birthday lol. In the context of 2005 and Cena’s persona at the time as a hip-hop, street guy, it worked. They messed up by not having it exclusively for Cena because it looked goofy on anyone else.
@@Nunyabiznessboi it looked goofy on John, too, dude. That was the gimmick. It was literally a talking point for heel promos. Same as the spinner belt, which I'm glad you liked, but I grew up in that era, too, and there's not a lot of people who DID like the spinner belt. And almost nobody spun the spinner, they mostly just kept fidgeting with it to keep the logo facing upright when they moved.
@@harleyjackson3708 Yeah no. I remember the reveal after he beat JBL and everyone went nuts. Even the spinner US title was liked. The belt was customized for his character at the time and instead of giving others their own or just reverting back to the original title when he lost they had everyone wear it until it was retired which I said made them look goofy because it didn’t match their gimmick/character. Of course it was a gimmick. Literally everyone and everything in WWE is a gimmick to sell their character and having a blinged out title for rapper/thuganomics Cena was fitting. You know how many replicas of that belt they sold? How many chain gang pendants and headbands they sold? Which btw were both apart of hip hop culture and streetwear at the time. The belt did what it was intended to do which was sell his character and merchandise.
Remember his debut match against Kurt Angle in 2002 was a 12 year old kid now 34. Sure was a pleasure growing up and living my young adult life watching Cena
John Cena was my friends childhood hero. Unfortunately, he passed away during COVID and he would’ve been around to Cena all throughout WWE until his retirement. Being from Las Vegas, I’ll be attending WrestleMania to see John Cena one final time and sending it to the spirit of my friend. Thank you Cena and you too Anthony.
I am a Canadian here in Toronto Ontario Canada. I have watched this man come up here every time & compliment our country's fanbase, compete in the ring every night whether he was booked or cheered. First ballot Hall of Famer, a Legend, & one of the Greatest of All Time. Thank you, Mr Cena, looking forward to the journey to WrestleMania!!
It's crazy to see this man start and retire. My childhood was watching him, undertaker, triple h and hbk battle it out and I am so glad I witnessed those years
Nah. He needs to win, especially for everything he's done for WWE. He needs to retire the same way Sting retired this year: as a champion. Perhaps against Rock for The People's Championship.
@@Boe3 Rey Mysterio is still a full time wrestler and in the hall of fame. Ric Flair went into the hall of fame right before his last match. Cena's most definitely heading the 2025 hall of fame.
Cena is my childhood even my grandma knows him Cena when he started he was fighting kurt Cena growing up so fast Being the best wwe legend ever Cena is the one we will remember The biggest part of my childhood❤
I’m still lost of words of what John Cena said. John Cena tie with Ric Flair with 16 WWE championships. He won the royal rumble twice won the United States championship tag team championship money in the bank. It’s going to be a tough not see John Cena in the WWE ring. I want to say John Cena has earned and gain my respect as WWE fan since 2010. John Cena thank you for the memories and you are the Greatest of all time Hustle Loyalty and Respect. What John Cena did in and out of the ring he deserves to be in the hall of fame.
WWE IF YOUR SEEING THIS PLEASE MAKE CENA A 17 TIME CHAMPION!!! I’m not gonna force anyone to do anything I just want to see cena happy since he’s retiring! Sending love from New Jersey ❤
I literally bursted into tears seeing him pull out that shirt, make that run to the ring, and make a heartbreaking announcement. This guy got me through some tough times and I looked up to him. I’m going to miss him but it’s better for him to leave while he’s still healthy rather than with brain damage or permanent injuries. Thank You Cena for everything!!
As a John Cena fan born and raised in Downtown Toronto, Canada, I cannot believe the time is finally here.. Thank You Mr. Cena for being the reason why I got into wrestling, you’ll always be my favourite wrestler of all time. Now is the time to become a 17-Time World Champion! 🥲😢😭😤
I remember my first counterfit Cena t-shirt and backpack because we didnt had official merch in Romania in 2007. I remember crying when I couldnt stay late to watch RAW. Now im 30 and see this man retire, and I feel weird and nostalgic. I wish he would go for another 10 years, but sooner or later, the time is up.
John Cena was the first wrestler I saw on TV as a child on TV and I really enjoyed watching him. To the point that when I saw him lose, I couldn't believe it. I thought he was invincible. Seeing him announce his retirement was a day I thought I would ever see. What a legend he has been. I'll surely miss him as a WWE superstar. Thank you Cena 🙌🏼🫡
John Cena is one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. I remember my childhood with this wrestler. I watched him from 2012 to 2019. He is a symbol and source of inspiration for WWE fans. Yes, your time is up, John. I wish you the best in acting from Libya 👍🏻
Here I am 40 years old watching and reminiscing his entire career from a knock off vanilla ice to a 16-time world champion and the next hulk hogan. It’s truly been an honor, I can proudly say as a fan I never turned on you and booed you, even got too see my kids go nuts for you the way I did when you did an FU to big show at wrestlemania 20
John Cena is the first person I knew in wrestling 2010 and now retiring in 2025, it breaks my heart so much, he will always be my number one because I love him and good memories of him while wrestling are always the best in my life. Thank you for being a good reason for me to watching wrestling John Cena. I love you so much from Uganda 🇺🇬
Randy wins the title off Cody at SummerSlam and then Cena beats Orton at Mania for the title and vacates if after the match both Orton and Cena retire.
I love how John (sort of) wore the red attire that he wore at the MITB 2011. Its a different red attire but still kinda brings back a lot of nostalgia.
I have been a wrestling sicne 2002! I’m 22 years old! My entire life I have loved wrestling and WWE! A big part of that was John Cena! I was four months ago when John Cena debut and when he retired in 2025 I am going to be 23 years old!

xie wanted him to stop, so he stoped
I can't believe that time has come, been watching this guy for like 20 years.
There will never be another John Cena
@@chriswilliams1024or taker or Orton or lesnar or triple h, not another cm punk or Rey mysterio or many wwe legends
Dude same.. this man is a legend
Technically been watching him for roughly 14 years with a few cameos every couple of years in between.
@@SadVIad Wish he showed up a little bit more the last couple of years.
My childhood lmao once I dressed up in full purple John Cena gear at wwe😢
I just cannot believe this is it, we’re at the end of John Cena’s career. Feels like it was just 2005 and Chris Jericho brought out John Cena on the Highlight Reel after he was drafted to Raw. The huge pop the spinner belt, life was good. Now that will soon be 20 years ago and we’re fighting tears wishing that Cena didn’t have to go. I wish I could go back.
Man I remember that. Watched it live and it was in my hometown St. Louis! I just turned 10 and Cena was my favorite wrestler. I wish I could go back to those days it was so much fun! 😢
The spinner belt and "life was good" should never ever be used in the same sentence.
@@Gameboy-Unboxings Speak for yourself. I understand you may have been older but as a kid I loved it and loved it even more when I got a replica for my birthday lol. In the context of 2005 and Cena’s persona at the time as a hip-hop, street guy, it worked. They messed up by not having it exclusively for Cena because it looked goofy on anyone else.
@@Nunyabiznessboi it looked goofy on John, too, dude. That was the gimmick. It was literally a talking point for heel promos. Same as the spinner belt, which I'm glad you liked, but I grew up in that era, too, and there's not a lot of people who DID like the spinner belt. And almost nobody spun the spinner, they mostly just kept fidgeting with it to keep the logo facing upright when they moved.
@@harleyjackson3708 Yeah no. I remember the reveal after he beat JBL and everyone went nuts. Even the spinner US title was liked. The belt was customized for his character at the time and instead of giving others their own or just reverting back to the original title when he lost they had everyone wear it until it was retired which I said made them look goofy because it didn’t match their gimmick/character. Of course it was a gimmick. Literally everyone and everything in WWE is a gimmick to sell their character and having a blinged out title for rapper/thuganomics Cena was fitting. You know how many replicas of that belt they sold? How many chain gang pendants and headbands they sold? Which btw were both apart of hip hop culture and streetwear at the time. The belt did what it was intended to do which was sell his character and merchandise.
2025: John Cena is retiring
2030: John Cena is back for one more time
Sooner I'd bet.
S-So cynical!
It's once in a lifetime!
Remember his debut match against Kurt Angle in 2002 was a 12 year old kid now 34. Sure was a pleasure growing up and living my young adult life watching Cena
Isn't that time when he spouted out "Ruthless Aggression" 😂 man time flies
John Cena made wwe awesome
25 years old now, this man was on my TV when I was 4 years old….cant express how thankful I am of this man being a part of my childhood.
John Cena was my friends childhood hero. Unfortunately, he passed away during COVID and he would’ve been around to Cena all throughout WWE until his retirement. Being from Las Vegas, I’ll be attending WrestleMania to see John Cena one final time and sending it to the spirit of my friend. Thank you Cena and you too Anthony.
Man Cena and Taker was my whole childhood this shssstt hurt man

Right!
Yeah I thought he was doing throwback for a second.
I am a Canadian here in Toronto Ontario Canada. I have watched this man come up here every time & compliment our country's fanbase, compete in the ring every night whether he was booked or cheered. First ballot Hall of Famer, a Legend, & one of the Greatest of All Time. Thank you, Mr Cena, looking forward to the journey to WrestleMania!!

HOLLA, THE FANS IN [Insert Name of City and Country] ARE ALWAYS AMAZING!
It's crazy to see this man start and retire. My childhood was watching him, undertaker, triple h and hbk battle it out and I am so glad I witnessed those years
John Cena , Messi , Ronaldo , Eminem , lebron James , the era of Goats is coming to an end soon
get LeBitch off the list!

eminem? lol
@@widehalkfacts, bro confused 😂
eminem? lmfao
His last match should be a last man standing match. Never gives up mentally but his body gave up in the end.
Nah. He needs to win, especially for everything he's done for WWE. He needs to retire the same way Sting retired this year: as a champion. Perhaps against Rock for The People's Championship.
His last opponent must be Randy Orton.
Last man standing matches are so lame though
It called getting old
Cena needs to win his last match…wwe bury him for the past years
I think we found who is going to lead the 2025 Hall of Fame class
2026 because he will be performing in 2025
@@Boe3 Rey Mysterio is still a full time wrestler and in the hall of fame. Ric Flair went into the hall of fame right before his last match. Cena's most definitely heading the 2025 hall of fame.

Being the best wwe legend ever
Cena is the one we will remember
The biggest part of my childhood❤
My favorite Cena year was definitely 2004 - 2006. He defined the ruthless aggression era.
I am crying after watching this..I cannot believe how the years comes and go..20 years of hustle loyalty and respect 20 years of never give up.

I’m still lost of words of what John Cena said. John Cena tie with Ric Flair with 16 WWE championships. He won the royal rumble twice won the United States championship tag team championship money in the bank. It’s going to be a tough not see John Cena in the WWE ring. I want to say John Cena has earned and gain my respect as WWE fan since 2010. John Cena thank you for the memories and you are the Greatest of all time Hustle Loyalty and Respect. What John Cena did in and out of the ring he deserves to be in the hall of fame.
john cena 16 time champ for one company..flair hasnt
John is the greatest of all time!
3 time US Champ
Cena needs one more title run even a short one.
@@biggbosssolo69cena cant hold a candle to flair though😅
They better have a hell of a story plan for him. Dont want to see him messed around like they did Kurt Angle.
oh yah that was the worst. i watched his last match at wm in ny where he lost to baron corbin. so dumb
His match should be the main event, like HBK’ last match was.
It's Hunter, he is gonna treat the whole thing with respect.
Randy Orton should be John Cena last opponent
@@harrylewis1071 I quit match or iron man match for them
For my generation, Cena was our Hulk Hogan. Still remember his debut against Kurt Angle.

I’m not gonna force anyone to do anything I just want to see cena happy since he’s retiring!
Sending love from New Jersey ❤
I literally bursted into tears seeing him pull out that shirt, make that run to the ring, and make a heartbreaking announcement. This guy got me through some tough times and I looked up to him. I’m going to miss him but it’s better for him to leave while he’s still healthy rather than with brain damage or permanent injuries. Thank You Cena for everything!!
As a John Cena fan born and raised in Downtown Toronto, Canada, I cannot believe the time is finally here.. Thank You Mr. Cena for being the reason why I got into wrestling, you’ll always be my favourite wrestler of all time. Now is the time to become a 17-Time World Champion! 🥲😢😭😤
I remember my first counterfit Cena t-shirt and backpack because we didnt had official merch in Romania in 2007. I remember crying when I couldnt stay late to watch RAW. Now im 30 and see this man retire, and I feel weird and nostalgic. I wish he would go for another 10 years, but sooner or later, the time is up.
It went from “you can’t C me” to you won’t see me💀
“ “ After this” ……. U can’t see me ! “ on the back of his shirt
It hits hard. 😢😢😢
@@user-tk4bn6rn1ftrue and its sad to see him hang up hes hat sneakers armbands shorts and wristband all together but it is what it is
@@therandomcommunityguy Yeah.
John Cena was the first wrestler I saw on TV as a child on TV and I really enjoyed watching him. To the point that when I saw him lose, I couldn't believe it. I thought he was invincible. Seeing him announce his retirement was a day I thought I would ever see. What a legend he has been. I'll surely miss him as a WWE superstar. Thank you Cena 🙌🏼🫡
John Cena has done loads for wwe
Same, John Crna was the first person saw.
I grew up watching this guy..
Ever since he became the U.S champion the first time and the rest is history..damn i'll miss this guy..my childhood 😢
John Cena is one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. I remember my childhood with this wrestler. I watched him from 2012 to 2019. He is a symbol and source of inspiration for WWE fans. Yes, your time is up, John. I wish you the best in acting from Libya 👍🏻

that's what i was thinking i thought this was an old video but he's retiring
Wasn’t it 2011 but dang I did miss those days 🥲🥲
That's not his prime bro
Super Cena of 2007 says otherwise.
His prime is Green
Here I am 40 years old watching and reminiscing his entire career from a knock off vanilla ice to a 16-time world champion and the next hulk hogan. It’s truly been an honor, I can proudly say as a fan I never turned on you and booed you, even got too see my kids go nuts for you the way I did when you did an FU to big show at wrestlemania 20
John Cena is the first person I knew in wrestling 2010 and now retiring in 2025, it breaks my heart so much, he will always be my number one because I love him and good memories of him while wrestling are always the best in my life. Thank you for being a good reason for me to watching wrestling John Cena. I love you so much from Uganda 🇺🇬
Wow, we're all getting older.... I miss everything back then. I realised we were growing up with this man :(
I really never liked John Cena until the last five years when I realized he was always helping other wrestlers out and was all about the business.
That man has a massive heart and passion in the business love him or hate him he always gives it all thank u cena over 2 decades of wwe
@cagonzal13 hell yeah. I mean, look what he did for Kenny from the Spirit Squad😄😄😄once I found that out I was a Cena fan
He’s the Superman of the WWE truly
Yeah but before the last 5 years, he had spent 5-10 years burying a lot of talent. It was Vince's booking tho and not Cena's fault
@censedfear marks lol he didn't bury anyone its entertainment
think like an individual not like a sheep
Yup, I think Cena is going to do his farewell tour before he retires.
Cena coming for a slice of that Dirty Dom pie!
I agree 👍
I mean that is literally what he said. What a hot take.
or some new storyline in working
Thanks, Captain Comprehension.
After he retires, the wwe will change forever…. We love you and we’ll miss you cena. (We literally cant see him anymore now)
Wow I remember seeing John on day one with his big shoes and free style Rap.

Anyone else hope his last match is with Randy Orton? Heel or not, seeing those two go one more time would be MONEY.
Randy wins the title off Cody at SummerSlam and then Cena beats Orton at Mania for the title and vacates if after the match both Orton and Cena retire.
@@AloneInTheParkOrton isn't gonna retire anytime soon
