WWE Legend Makes Big Prediction for John Cena at Royal Rumble
John Bradshaw Layfield discusses John Cena’s potential Royal Rumble victory during recent Something to Wrestle appearance, highlighting historic implications.
During an appearance on Something to Wrestle, John Bradshaw Layfield shared his analysis of the upcoming Men’s Royal Rumble Match, selecting John Cena as his predicted winner.
I don’t know how you couldn’t go with Cena. I mean, it’s such a great story. I just don’t know how you wouldn’t go with him. You’ve got a 16-time world champion, one of the greatest of all time, and carried the company during a G-rated era, which had to be the hardest role of any champion ever.
Cena has announced his intention to retire from in-ring competition at the end of 2025. The 47-year-old currently shares the record for world championship reigns with Ric Flair at 16 titles.
A victory at Royal Rumble would mark Cena’s third win in the annual match, joining Stone Cold Steve Austin as the only competitors to achieve this milestone. Cena previously won the Royal Rumble in 2008 and 2013.
