John Cena officially closed his career in the ring on December 13th, when he fell to Gunther at Saturday Night's Main Event. It was a surprising and controversial ending, but it won't be the last time fans see the 17-time world champion fighting in the ring.

According to Wrestlevotes Radio via Fightful Select, Cena will be the protagonist of a new documentary focused on his retirement. Production teams were filming during his last match and in the following days, gathering material that will form the basis of the project. The documentary is planned to be released in mid-2026. Although Peacock is the rumored platform for its release, there is still no official confirmation.
