The Royal Rumble is scheduled for February 1st, 2025 at Lucas Oil Stadium.
Cena aims to secure a victory at the Royal Rumble to pursue his 17th World Championship at WrestleMania 41. He may appear on the final RAW before the Royal Rumble to address his participation in the match.
John Cena Sr. discussed his son’s potential WrestleMania 41 opponent on What Were They Thinking?
The last podcast I did with Bill Apter…he wanted to know who I thought Cena should face. Should it be Rhodes? Should it be The Rock? Definitely not Dwayne Johnson. I don’t think it should be Cody Rhodes. I think he should face the guy that I think is a great technical wrestler. He’s still holding that belt and that’s Gunther.
