John Cena will be returning for his retirement tour in 2025.
He said he will work 36 dates next year, including the Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber and WrestleMania 41.
According to DirtySheetsNet, one of the major reasons why Cena is having a retirement tour that will last one full year (where he will appear a lot on RAW on Netflix) is because The Rock was a major part of the deal WWE signed with Netflix, but he won’t be able to appear much over there:
“There are internal discussions in WWE about how they’re going to get The Rock and Roman Reigns on Netflix.
There’s a strong belief that the reason John Cena has been brought back and put on a one-year deal — which The Rock was heavily instrumental in — is because WWE wants to combat the situation they’re in.
That situation involves The Rock showing up on the USA Network (for SmackDown) for his program with Cody Rhodes.
While The Rock was instrumental in securing the Netflix deal and guaranteed that he and Reigns would be appearing on Netflix, at the moment, those two aren’t set to be on Netflix.
I’m sure Rock and Roman will be on the first episode of RAW on Netflix, but we know Roman Reigns is on the SmackDown brand, with The Bloodline storyline on SmackDown, and Cody Rhodes will be there.
That looks like the initial destination for The Rock unless they can find a way to work around this, and there are internal discussions about that.”
