John Cena continues to hint that his WWE career is coming to a close.
Cena was last seen on WWE TV when he made a surprise appearance on Raw for a quick six-man tag team match where he helped The Miz and R-Truth win. He had been involved the night before in the WrestleMania XL main event between Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns.
In previous interviews, Cena noted that he hopes to have one more run next year once his Hollywood acting commitments are wrapped up after Christmas. He also said while he still has rubber left on the tires, he knows he’s close to in-ring retirement and plans to retire before he turns 50, meaning he’ll be done by 2027.
While speaking with PEOPLE, Cena said the sun is setting on his WWE chapter. He said,
“I know my WWE journey is coming to an end, but fitness was a part of my life long before the WWE journey started. Fitness will be a part of my life, hopefully as long as my heart’s beating. So the WWE has been a great chapter in my life — it’s year 23 for me — and the sun’s setting on that chapter in the book, but fitness will never not be a part of my life.”
It’s unclear when Cena will make his next WWE appearance.
