As John Cena begins his 2025 retirement tour, wrestlers the world over are lining as much as get one final shot at “The Champ,” together with some Superstars who do not even work for WWE.
That is proper, in a current interview with Sports activities Illustrated, Nic Nemeth successfully referred to as out Cena to take his skills to TNA for a one-time rematch within the Impression Zone, marking his first look exterior of WWE in over 20 years.
“Yeah, it could be [special]. Completely, as a lot as I want to hog it, irrespective of who was in that second with him, that will be cool as h*ll, as a result of he is finished a lot for thus many different folks, and it is a huge yr to get every little thing in,” Nemeth advised SI. “He is not even going to have the ability to get to every little thing as a result of everyone’s in all probability, similar to Tanahashi, like everybody’s like dying to get within the ring with him yet another time as a result of it is the final one, however man, it could, it would be game-changing for, [TNA].

With TNA and WWE formally getting into a multi-year working settlement to deliver stars from one promotion to the opposite and vice versa, what as soon as appeared like a longshot delusion now might grow to be an actual risk. And the most effective half? Nemeth does not need to do it alone, as he’d be right down to get the band again collectively alongside Huge E and AJ Lee to essentially get followers again of their 2013 emotions.
“I simply noticed Huge E on TV; I used to be like, ‘You already know what? It might be humorous if Cena was doing one in every of his Monday Night time RAW nights, and he got here out, after which Huge E got here out, after which AJ Lee got here out on the stage, after which I got here out on the stage.’ And it simply jogged my memory of 2013, the place we had six months of battles with John, and he broke that, my briefcase, excessive of my head possibly 45 instances in that six months,” Nemeth stated. “And I stated, ‘That may be a pleasant visible. That’ll be a pleasant second for followers to have all these returns and have a second.’ So possibly you may have it occur, and possibly you may have John present as much as one in every of our reside Impacts, or at Genesis or one thing; I’d similar to a second, simply seeing the three of us, as a result of we had a pleasant little, ongoing off-and-on year-long factor with John. That’d be actually cool.”
Now granted, getting Lee and E into the angle is simpler stated than finished, as the previous does not work for both firm, and the latter is not cleared for bodily contact after a 2023 neck harm. Nonetheless, if Nemeth can get Cena in a TNA ring earlier than he calls it a profession, it could make for one heck of a press release, as few had that on their bingo card even per week in the past.
