For many years John Cena was the face of the WWE, but now he rarely makes appearances on WWE programming. The 16 time WWE World Champion has been focusing on his acting career, but he did recently return to SmackDown to set up a WrestleMania match against The Fiend.
WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley recently spoke to Wrestling Inc. about John Cena’s WrestleMania match, and he explained why he thinks it will be Cena’s last.
“It’s gonna be very interesting and I think it adds another huge match as John Cena gave an impassioned promo and it leads me to believe this will be his final match. I would not be surprised to see The Fiend come out of Mania stronger than ever.”
The Fiend recently dropped the Universal Title to Goldberg at Super ShowDown, and the decision has been heavily criticized by the wrestling community. Although Mick Foley admitted he wasn’t happy with The Fiend dropping the belt, he explained why he doesn’t think the character needs the title.
“I think in the future [The Fiend] does not need a title. He’s an attraction in the same way as Roddy Piper never needed a title. I didn’t care for the way it was taken off of him, but he’s a guy who always lands on his feet. I think he’ll come out of Mania just fine and he’ll be a huge star for WWE for years to come. He’s got The Mandible Claw! How could he not?”
