John Cena has been wrestling for decades now, but it’s no big secret that his in-ring career is winding down. The former WWE Champion is currently 47 years old and he recently confirmed that he will be looking to retire from WWE by the time he turns 50.
While talking about a possible retirement match on The One Show on BBC, John Cena noted that while he likely won’t choose his opponent for his final match the idea venue would be the O2 Arena in London.
“So I’ve gone by the construct in my life of never trying to pick my opponents because that’s way above my pay grade, but I’ve been an active advocate for London to be a host of WrestleMania. A lot of people think when I go out in the middle of the ring and I say that, it’s just for the local moment, like, ‘We’re the show, we want to make the show happy.’ Fans in the UK, WWE fans are the best, and fans in London specifically, they will let you know how they feel.
“I don’t think I’ll be able to choose my opponent, but if I could choose a venue, it’d be the O2 in London. So I hope we can make that happen.”
