John Cena Sr. has shared who he hoped would face his son in John Cena’s final WWE match.
Cena is set for his last appearance at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event on December 13, where he’ll face the winner of the Last Time Is Now tournament finals between Gunther and LA Knight. It has been highly speculated that WWE plans for Gunther to be Cena’s final opponent in his last match.
However, his father said he doesn’t believe Gunther needs the spotlight from beating Cena. Instead, he listed the names he personally wanted for Cena’s farewell match. On the All Axxess Podcast, he said he wishes WWE had booked something different for the final match.
He said, “So my thought is — is there anybody that needs the rub? I think he’s given the rub along the way, especially with Dominik Mysterio… Who else do I think he should face? I really wish that Kurt Angle was able to get back in the ring, because that would be an outstanding last match for Cena and Angle.”
“And I say this all the time, I really truly believe that [Baron] Corbin should not have been Angle’s opponent for his retirement match — it should have been Cena. “Who would I like to see John face? Obviously I just kind of emphasized that. I would say Kurt Angle number one. I would say Adam Copeland number two. I would say Chris Jericho number three. And a wildcard on my part, I’d love to see John Cena face JBL. Those would be my four choices.” [H/T: f4wonline]
Despite fans being skeptical that he will actually retire, John Cena once again said that he’s not coming back for another match.
