WWE RAW Netflix debut episode is set to become one of the biggest milestones in WWE history. The global giant will host a star-studded extravaganza in Hollywood, Los Angeles, at the Intuit Dome on January 6th. Moreover, a huge announcement on the last RAW of 2024 has excited the fans even more for the highly anticipated show set to debut on Netflix.
During the December 30 edition of Monday Night RAW, which was their last show on the USA network, it was announced via a vignette that John Cena’s Retirement tour is set to begin on WWE RAW Netflix debut show. This announcement sparked a huge wave of excitement among Cenation fans, who had been waiting for it since Cena made the announcement at WWE Money in the Bank 2024 Premium Live Event.
Will John Cena wrestle at the WWE RAW Netflix debut show?
John Cena became one of the biggest WWE superstars of all time for his over two-decade-long career. However, Cena shocked the world at the 2024 Money in the Bank PLE and said that he would retire from in-ring competition at the end of 2025 after completing his Retirement Tour.
With the last leg of Cena’s illustrious career set to begin at the WWE RAW Netflix debut show, fans might be wondering if John Cena could also have the first match of his retirement tour at the event. Considering the magnitude and scale of the event, Cena wrestling a match could be a huge addition to their match card.
A logical booking could see some nostalgic act take place, with 16-time WWE Champion hosting his popular ‘Open Challenge’ from the past. Should Cena host the challenge, a young and rising star like Bron Breakker could answer the challenge and gain a massive push by becoming John Cena’s first opponent on his retirement tour. However, if Cena does not wrestle his first match at the WWE RAW Netflix show, he could possibly announce the first match of the tour, which could be the Men’s Royal Rumble, considering that he is already announced to be at the event.
