WWE WM 41: Possible Opponents For John Cena’s Final WresteMania Match in 2025

The 2024 edition of Money in the Bank premium live event in Toronto, Canada delivered some of the most unforgettable moments in WWE history but nothing was perhaps bigger than John Cena's return to drop a bombshell regarding his career.

In a highlight promo of the evening, the former franchise player of the WWE delivered an emotional speech about his upcoming retirement from in-ring competition in 2025, an announcement that took the pro-wrestling fraternity to a frenzy.

In the post-Money in the Bank conference, it was further clarified that John Cena will compete in his last WrestleMania match in the 2025 edition in Las Vegas. With that, the rumour mill is also running rampant to find out his opponent at the Show of Shows.

According to the odds released by BetOnline, Randy Orton emerged to be the odds-on favorite to be Cena's WrestleMania 41 opponent as he leads the pack with +150 odds. Current top stars like Cody Rhodes (+200), CM Punk (+500), The Rock (+800) and Roman Reigns (+900) are also there.

Some of the legendary WWE Superstars like Batista, Kurt Angle, AJ Styles, and Stone Cold Steve Austin also made it to the list while an emerging star Bron Breakker (+1400) is also listed to battle Cena in a WrestleMania showdown.

Interestingly, already retired WWE Superstars like The Undertaker, Triple H, and even Ric Flair have also been included in the cut. At a glance, the probable list of Cena's 'Mania opponents is given below:
