John Cena Gives Definitive Answer On Possibly Facing Triple H

John Cena finally addressed the possibility of facing Triple H on his WWE farewell tour.

The Game last competed in January 2021 when he squared off with Randy Orton on Monday Night RAW. The Chief Content Officer retired the following year due to serious heart issues.

Triple H has since been adamant that his wrestling days were behind him and he was only focused on his behind-the-scenes job. Nevertheless, that did not stop some experts from predicting he would come out of retirement to face John Cena in his final match.

The Undisputed WWE Champion recently addressed the possibility of facing The Cerebral Assassin during his appearance at the 2025 SummerSlam press conference.

When Michael Cole asked him if he wants to check other boxes in WWE before hanging up his boots, the 17-time world champion took the question to the audience in attendance. They immediately started suggesting potential opponents for Cena.

When a fan suggested Triple H’s name, Cena was quick to shut that idea down.

Hunter Hearst Helmsley? No, we can’t do that one. [19:21 onwards]
