Following the start of his farewell tour, WWE star has invited former 16-time world champion John Cena to stop by NXT.
On the January 6 Netflix premiere of WWE Raw, John Cena returned to the company for the first time since Money In The Bank to kick off his retirement tour.
Announcing his entry into the Men’s Royal Rumble Match, Cena declared that his mission for his farewell tour is to become a 17-time world champion.
During his last lengthy run with the company, “The Doctor of Thuganomics” made a brief appearance on the WWE NXT program where he interacted with Bron Breakker in October 2023.
Speaking to Bully Ray on Busted Open Radio, former NXT Champion Ethan Page invited John Cena to come by NXT. He said:
“I’ve shared the ring with (Bully), I’ve shared the ring with many Hall of Famers, many big names, many legends, many of the most dangerous men in professional wrestling.”
“Just one step at a time to reach the top. (The Rock) is the top. I’m prepared for this. I’ve been prepared for this. I’ll continue to be prepared for this. There is not a single wrestler living that intimidates me.
“John Cena on this retirement tour, stop by NXT, pal. I’ll look you dead in the eyes. We can do something.
“There is not a single living, breathing wrestler that would make me feel anything other than excitement for the opportunity to take their spot and their money.”
