John Cena on WWE Raw

John Cena is set to appear on WWE Raw for the very last time in his career in Madison Square Garden.

John Cena is now on the final straight of his iconic career as he gets ready to compete in his very last match at Saturday Night’s Main Event on December 13th.

Cena’s last weeks in the company have taken on added significance after he defeated Dominik Mysterio to capture the Intercontinental Championship, making him a WWE Grand Slam Champion. A 16-man Last Time Is Now tournament is currently underway, with the winner earning the right to face Cena in his very last match and that will continue when Raw heads to Madison Square Garden.

John Cena To Kick Off WWE Raw

Now Raw General Manager Adam Pearce has given an indication to fans tuning in when they can expect to see John Cena on that show, as he took to social media to say:

Monday Night Raw comes to you live tomorrow night from the world’s most famous arena – Madison Square Garden.

And it does not get any bigger as this will mark the final appearance for the Never Seen 17 greatest of all time and brand new Intercontinental Champion, John Cena. John will kick off the broadcast tomorrow night.

The returning Gunther will clash with NXT’s Je’Von Evans in the Last Time Is Now tournament, while Solo Sikoa will tangle with a mystery opponent.
