“When I heard him say he was retiring at the end of next year, I had mixed emotions”

“When I heard him say he was retiring at the end of next year, I had mixed emotions,” said Mike “The Miz” Mizanin. “I’m proud that I’ve been able to share the ring with him and learn from him. I’m still using what I’ve learned from him in and out of the ring. I’m also sad. This is it.”

CM Punk at Comic Con:

“If I had to tag up with somebody to beat some people up? It would probably be Larry. Everybody’s asking me, because Cena has announced his retirement — obviously they want to see us fight each other, I think there’s something to me and him tagging. I think that could be pretty interesting.”

“It’s going to be fun. And not bittersweet for me, it’s going to be fun. I’m so grateful that I’m in a position where I still have my health and I’m able to carve out a large section of time and perform for a year from January until December, And give everyone also a heads-up. A lot of times in WWE, sometimes injuries force retirement all of a sudden. So one day you’re there and then the next day you’re gone. Or sometimes you just say you’re retiring and it’s part of the bit, like you want to attack somebody and get a shot at the championship.

This is my way, for an audience that has made me who I am after 22-23 years of investment, to say, ‘Hey, I’m going to give you six months, that’s your warning. And then in January we’re going on tour and then in December I’m hanging them up. So let’s all get together at various spots around the world the next calendar year and get loud and rowdy one more time.'”

I don't wanna say lame because it's obviously not but I really hope they don't just go the safe route with this and just do rehashes of matches from yesteryear. I wanna see him one or two TakeOver cards and NXT weekly shows aswell.

John Cena hopes London is included as part of his “The Last Time Is Now: 2025 Farewell Tour” in WWE.

During a recent talkSPORT interview, “The Greatest of All-Time” spoke about his final farewell tour in WWE, and how he hopes that London and other U.K. and Canadian hot spots are included in the mix.

“I really hope so,” Cena said of London. “As you know, I’m retiring from in-ring performing next year and we’ll start in January and we’ll do our last match in December 2025. I really hope there are some UK dates involved in that farewell. I meant what I said, and I said the same thing in Canada, the UK and Canada have been such strong supporters of the WWE, through thick and thin.”

Cena continued, “I campaigned for WrestleMania to be located in London because I think London has absolutely earned the right to host the Grandest Stage of Them All. Nick Khan and Triple H were just there talking to the mayor of London. Hopefully, I don’t know, things work out and maybe WrestleMania in London in the future. It’s not going to happen in 2025, so unfortunately, I won’t have a match there, but if it does, I will absolutely be there as a fan.”​

Haven’t they run PLEs at the 02 arena the last few years?

I’m sure they’ll be an opportunity for him to work London
