GUNTHER Addresses Retiring John Cena On WWE Raw

WWE

GUNTHER has addressed retiring John Cena and making him tap out in his retirement match to kick off tonight’s WWE Raw show.

John Cena’s WWE career is now officially over, with his final match taking place at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event on December 13.

On the night, Cena was defeated by GUNTHER, with the Ring General making Cena submit, his first tap out in over 20 years, in a finish that both shocked and upset the crowd.

On tonight’s WWE Raw, GUNTHER kicked off the show in Hershey with him being greeted by a load chorus of boos.

GUNTHER would gloat about retiring Cena, saying that he did what he said he would do, and that is make him give up, and that he tapped out like a ‘little bitch’.

GUNTHER would then return to the back, where he laughed off both Alpha Academy and R-Truth, before Raw General Manager Adam Pearce demanded he leave the building.

When GUNTHER went to leave, he was greeted by AJ Styles, who was waiting by GUNTHER’s car as he went to leave.

GUNTHER would then drive off, doing a You Can’t See Me gesture to AJ in the car before doing so.
