John Cena vs Gunther: WWE is preparing for a historic night as 2025 moves toward its conclusion. John Cena’s legendary in-ring career is scheduled to end at Saturday Night’s Main Event on December 13.

   
John Cena faces off against Gunther in his final WWE retirement match at Saturday Night's Main Event, John Cena vs Gunther.

The event will take place at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C. A packed house is expected as fans gather to witness the final appearance of the 17-time world champion.


Cena’s retirement tour has spanned the entire year, making this show the final stop of a career that defined an era of sports entertainment. His presence adds major significance to WWE’s last marquee event of the year.


The evening will not revolve around a single match. WWE has lined up a full slate of bouts designed to deliver a strong year-end showcase.


With the opening bell approaching, anticipation continues to build across the U.S. capital for a night expected to leave a lasting mark on WWE history.


The spotlight will fall on the headline matchup known as “The Last Time Is Now,” a bout that will serve as the final contest of John Cena’s career. 


Standing across the ring from him will be Gunther, the dominant competitor known as “The Ring General.”


Gunther secured the high-profile opportunity by winning a 16-man tournament, earning the right to face Cena in Washington, D.C. 


Since qualifying, the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion has made it clear that he intends to end the night by forcing Cena to submit.


For Cena, the match represents one last test of the philosophy that defined his career. 


His long-standing message of perseverance will be put to the ultimate challenge as he seeks to conclude his time in WWE on a positive and memorable note.


The remainder of the event card underscores John Cena’s emphasis on spotlighting emerging talent. 


Several WWE NXT competitors are set to appear in high-visibility matches as part of the showcase.


A key attraction will feature NXT Champion Oba Femi taking on Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes in a non-title bout. The contest pairs a fast-rising prospect with one of WWE’s top stars.


Femi regained the NXT Championship at NXT Deadline on December 6 with a victory over Ricky Saints. He followed that result with a successful title defense against Je’Von Evans.


The Nigerian-born wrestler now arrives at the event during what many view as the defining stretch of his career to date. A strong performance on this stage could mark a major step forward in his ascent within WWE.


Je’Von Evans is also slated for a high-profile tag team contest on the show. He will join forces with TNA X-Division Champion Leon Slater, who adjusted his international schedule to be part of the event.


Evans and Slater are set to challenge WWE World Tag Team Champions AJ Styles and Dragon Lee. The championship belts will be on the line in a matchup that adds further depth to the card.


The women’s division will feature a major spotlight moment for Sol Ruca. The former NXT Women’s North American Champion is scheduled to face Bayley in what stands as the biggest opportunity of her career so far.


Bayley enters the contest as one of WWE’s most accomplished performers. Her résumé includes championships across multiple divisions, making the bout a significant test for Ruca.
