John Cena, one of WWE’s most iconic superstars, made a grand appearance at the WWE Raw on Netflix premiere on January 6, 2025. The event, held in Los Angeles, marked the beginning of Cena’s farewell tour as an in-ring wrestler. Fans were thrilled as Cena took to the ring to share his thoughts and make a major announcement.
Cena began his speech by thanking Netflix for bringing WWE Raw to a global audience. He said, “The audience has gotten a lot bigger, and I’m grateful to Netflix for letting the world experience Monday Night Raw.” He also expressed his gratitude to WWE for giving him the opportunity to stand in the ring one last time in Los Angeles, a city he holds close to his heart.
The 16-time world champion then shifted focus to his farewell tour. He emphasized that 2025 is all about creating unforgettable moments for his fans. “This year is about making memories,” Cena said. He also addressed the rumors about his potential opponents, naming stars like CM Punk, Drew McIntyre, Gunther, and Logan Paul.
However, the highlight of the night was Cena’s announcement about the Royal Rumble. He declared that he would not only participate in the 30-man Battle Royale but also aim to win it. “I’m not just going to the Royal Rumble; I’m going to win the Royal Rumble!” Cena proclaimed. This statement sent the crowd into a frenzy.
Cena admitted that winning the Royal Rumble would be a tough challenge. He humorously pointed out that he hasn’t won a match in a long time. “It would take a miracle,” he said, referring to his chances of winning his 17th world title. But Cena, known for his never-give-up attitude, remained optimistic. “Nothing is impossible for me,” he added.
The Royal Rumble is one of WWE’s most prestigious events. Winning it guarantees a title shot at WrestleMania, WWE’s biggest annual event.

The WWE Raw on Netflix premiere was a star-studded event. Alongside Cena, other big names like The Rock and Logan Paul were present. The move to Netflix has brought WWE to a wider audience, and Cena’s farewell tour is expected to be a major draw for viewers.
As Cena prepares for his final year in the ring, fans are cherishing every moment. His speech in Los Angeles was emotional and heartfelt. He thanked his fans for their unwavering support over the years. “You’ve been with me through thick and thin, and I can’t thank you enough,” he said.
