John Cena already holds the record for most world title reigns with 17 after beating Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania 41.
To make fighting for the spot as John Cena’s final opponent a big deal, including wrestlers from all around the world is a good idea. WWE should make use of their acquisition of AAA by including the current face of the promotion, El Hijo Del Vikingo.
According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter (h/t WrestleTalk ), WWE's plan as of "a few weeks ago" was for John Cena to beat Dirty Dom for the Intercontinental Championship at Survivor Series before defending it against Gunther in his retirement match in December.
As John Cena’s retirement tour winds down, one of his former rivals remains unconvinced that the 17-time world champion is truly finished with his in-ring career. Current WWE star Rusev recently shared his thoughts on Cena's impending exit.
