Ever since John Cena announced his retirement tour, fans have demanded that he win the World Championship one last time. John is currently tied with Ric Flair at 16 World Championships in WWE. No other superstar has held the world title more times than them. This means that if John wins the championship one more time, he will win it a record 17 times. This has got the fans very excited.
He even announced himself for the Royal Rumble match recently. During his segment on Raw’s debut episode on Netflix, he made this announcement. This got everybody very excited and pumped up for the match. Since it is his farewell tour, we might see a lot more of him in WWE throughout the year. Recently, there have been a lot of rumors that he is going to win the Royal Rumble match. It now seems like the rumors are very likely.
The Franchise Player has been crucial in the development of WWE for over two decades now. He has carried the company on his back for the longest period of time. John used to be the most dedicated performer in WWE during his full-time days. Making him win the Royal Rumble will be a way for the company to thank him for everything he has done. John Cena is also a more popular figure than Ric Flair. Making him the man with the most World Championship victories will benefit the company more.
The fans are behind him to make history as soon as he can. This is going to be his last year wrestling in the ring. John Cena personally would want to go out with this achievement before he says goodbye to a beautiful wrestling career. A victory at the Royal Rumble match will also tie him with the most rumble wins. Currently, Stone Cold Steve Austin holds the record with three Rumble wins.
Wrestling fans react to possible rumors of Cena winning the Royal Rumble
The WWE Universe erupted when John Cena announced himself for the Rumble match. They started cheering all over the arena and are behind him to make history. Cena himself has told everybody on the roster that he is ready to take them on. It seems like he is going to make the most out of his last opportunity at the Rumble.
While a lot of sections of the fans want to see him win the championship this year at WrestleMania, some fans feel otherwise. They feel that he should work his way up to the championship level. Fans also want him to capture the Intercontinental championship before he retires. John has never won the Intercontinental Championship and would become a Grand Slam Champion if he does so. Most fans feel that he should not win the Rumble but win the world title later on.
John’s departure from WWE is going to be very upsetting for everyone. He has given everything his body can to the company. Multiple wrestlers have come and gone, but nobody has matched his level. The beginning of the farewell tour has been very passionate. However, when it comes to an end, it will be very emotional for everyone. This rumble will be the last of his legendary career.
