John Cena recently returned at the Money in the Bank PLE and shocked all the fans in attendance by announcing his retirement. He will embark on a retirement tour until the end of next year, performing in his final Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber, and WrestleMania. Many superstars, including Seth Rollins, have expressed their desire to wrestle the 16-time world champion before he retires.

In an interview with You Heard, Seth Rollins discussed various topics related to American football. During the conversation, he was asked about John Cena‘s heartbroken announcement and his retirement tour until the end of 2025. The Visionary remarked that Cena was the type of guy who always wanted to do everything in a grand fashion.

He said Big Match John had a larger-than-life personality and expressed his desire to share the ring with him once again. The Doctor of Thuganomics clarified that after wrestling in his last Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber, and WrestleMania, he wouldn’t stop and fight until the end of the year. Rollins and Cena were both involved in a heated rivalry in 2015, where the former defeated the latter and became a double champion.

This year 2025 is gonna be a special year for John Cena. He is not the type to do things small. If you've seen anything John's ever done in WWE... you know that John is larger than life and he is a big personality. I hope I can get back in the ring with him at least one more time before he hangs'em up.

Apart from his appearance at the Money in the Bank PLE, he last appeared at WrestleMania XL to help Cody Rhodes finish his story. On Raw after WrestleMania, Cena helped The Miz and R-Truth defeat Judgment Day. Fans are excited to see when he will make his in-ring return. Meanwhile, The Architect was brutally attacked by Bronson Reed on the latest episode of Raw.

Seth Rollins talked about the former WWE superstar Gable Steveson getting picked up by the Buffalo Bills

Former WWE superstar, Gable Steveson unfortunately failed to replicate the success he achieved at the Olympics. He was released from the company a few months ago, along with some NXT wrestlers. After his release, the Olympic gold medalist was picked up by the Buffalo Bills of the NFL. Seth Rollins had a few words to say about him.

While speaking in the same interview, the former World Heavyweight Champion stated that Steveson was an incredible athlete. He mentioned that the 24-year-old superstar had worked at the Performance Center for several years, and there were no complaints about his athleticism.

I'm always amazed at the transition of the skillset, right? This guy Gable Steveson is an Elite athlete, came to WWE, and worked out in the Performance Center for a number of years. But the fact that he was able to just go from high-level Olympic wrestling, right into Buffalo Bills camp is bonkers to me.

What amazed Rollins was Steveson’s ability to transition from Olympic wrestling to the NFL. His only official match in WWE was against Baron Corbin at NXT: The Great American Bash. The match ended in a no-contest, and many regard it as one of the worst matches of 2023. Only time will tell how his journey progresses in the NFL.
