John Cena is set to compete in his final match in WWE on December 13th, 2025, at Saturday Night’s Main Event. Fans have been buzzing with speculation about who his final opponent will be. While various names have been floated, a major pro-wrestling figure recently named a former WWE star as a potential opponent for The Cenation Leader.
Wrestling personality Konnan has identified Chris Jericho as a credible name for John Cena’s last match. Jericho, also known as Y2J, has been absent from All Elite Wrestling (AEW) since April of this year. However, rumors suggest that his contract with Tony Khan’s promotion may soon expire, possibly opening the door for a WWE return down the line.
Speaking on *Keepin’ It 100 OFFICIAL*, Konnan shared the prospect of a match between Cena and Jericho at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event this December. He mentioned that if Jericho is able to get out of his AEW contract early, WWE might make this dream match happen before Cena’s final showdown. The 61-year-old said it would be incredible if WWE could keep such a deal under wraps.
He commented,
*”Well, let me just say this—if this guy could get out early, and nobody knew about it, that would be incredible. A real surprise.”*
