WWE Announces Special Tournament To Determine John Cena's Final Opponent

John Cena is currently on his final run as a professional wrestler, and he has had some over-the-top matches. His recent match against 'The Phenomenal' AJ Styles at the WWE Crown Jewel in Perth was a certified banger, and he is closing in on the end of his career in wrestling.

At the 41st Saturday Night's Main Event in Salt Lake City, Utah, the WWE played a video package featuring John Cena, who gave some big news about his much-debated opponent for his final career match.

The WWE will host the "Last Time Is Now" tournament, in which 16 wrestlers from Raw, SmackDown, NXT, and wrestlers not signed with the promotion will compete for the opportunity. It indicates that TNA wrestlers can compete for the coveted chance, given that WWE has been actively working with them for some time.

John Cena also said that the tournament will feature superstars whom he has faced in the past, as well as wrestlers he has never crossed paths with.
