John Cena Set for Another Major WWE Twist After Heel Turn
WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray suggests on Busted Open podcast that John Cena will not remain a heel throughout his retirement tour following recent turn.
WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray believes John Cena will not maintain his heel persona throughout his retirement tour. The wrestling legend shared this prediction during a recent episode of the Busted Open podcast.
Cena shocked fans at Elimination Chamber when he turned heel after winning the Men’s Elimination Chamber match. The 16-time World Champion earned a championship opportunity against Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania but later aligned with The Rock when Rhodes refused to align with The Final Boss.
The conversation on Busted Open podcast addressed what might happen with Cena’s character after WrestleMania. Bully Ray offered his perspective on the situation.
I don’t think John Cena is going to remain a heel throughout his retirement tour. Let’s just go by this final 10 months. I don’t believe Cena runs it out as a heel. As a matter of fact, I’ll take a guess here, and listen, I was not right about the Cena heel turn at all. I’m the one who said, ‘Nah, don’t think it’s gonna happen.’ I think Cena is the heel up until WrestleMania.

This prediction comes after Cena maintained a babyface character for over two decades of his WWE career. The unexpected heel turn at Elimination Chamber marked his first major character shift in his announced retirement tour.
The 47-year-old superstar had previously announced his intention to retire from in-ring competition, with his current run serving as a farewell tour spanning approximately 10 months.
The alliance with The Rock created a dramatic moment when both icons joined forces against Rhodes after the Undisputed WWE Champion declined The Final Boss’s proposition.
Cena is scheduled to challenge Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania, with his newly formed alliance with The Rock adding an unexpected dimension to the match.
