John Cena is currently on his highly publicized farewell tour and will feature at the 2025 WWE Clash in Paris on August 31, where he is scheduled to face Logan Paul. This match is part of Cena’s retirement run, with Paul joining the storyline after a recent confrontation. Cena’s long-standing issues with Brock Lesnar remain unresolved, but the Logan Paul feud has taken precedence for this event[1].

Cena announced his retirement from in-ring competition at Money in the Bank in Toronto. The 16-time world champion confirmed that the 2025 Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber, and WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas would be his final major appearances. He also stated his intention to participate when Raw debuts on Netflix in January[2].

On the August 22, 2025, episode of SmackDown from Dublin, John Cena verbally confronted Logan Paul and delivered his signature Attitude Adjustment during the segment. However, the night ended with Paul striking Cena using brass knuckles, intensifying their feud ahead of Clash in Paris[7]. Earlier, WWE Now previewed the event as Cena’s farewell appearance in Ireland, emphasizing the significance of his coming clash with Paul[5].

Cena’s ongoing rivalry with Cody Rhodes also remains notable; he previously returned for a high-profile street fight at SummerSlam, which was billed as one of his last major title defenses and led to a memorable ovation from fans in Newark[6][8].

WWE has published new dates for Raw and SmackDown, confirming that Cena will make his final appearance in Chicago on September 5, followed by a homecoming in Springfield, Massachusetts, on September 15. These events highlight Cena’s ‘last calls’ in key cities as his retirement approaches[4].
