At the near end of May 2025, the WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event will be making a return to NBC. May 24 will see the main event take place at the Yuengling Center. And it has now been revealed that John Cena will be making an appearance there. Cena is, as of now, one of the most talked about wrestlers in the world. And now the latest news about one of his future appearances has made fans even more excited.

John Cena's upcoming WWE appearance revealed

After his unexpected heel turn at the 2025 Elimination Chamber, John Cena will be taking on Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 41. But fans have no idea what is next for Cena after WrestleMania takes place in Las Vegas in April. Whatever the results of the night between Cena and Cody Rhodes, Cena is sure to make other appearances in the ring in his last year in the squared circle. 2025 has been announced to be John Cena's retirement tour, so fans are eager to know what other events he will appear at.

Now it has been revealed that John Cena is promised to make an appearance at the WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event on May 24. The event will be a part of WWE’s Memorial Day weekend Tampa takeover. The SNME will be followed by NXT Battleground on Sunday, 25th May, and WWE Raw and NXT, which will conclude the takeover with their May 26 and 27 episodes.

Will John Cena come to Tampa to boast his record-breaking title belt?

John Cena will be going to Las Vegas next to face off against Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship title. Currently, Cena is tied with Ric Flair as the 16-time World Champion. But if he wins against Cody at WrestleMania 41, he will break the tie to have won 17 world titles, a historical record in the world of wrestling.

Then for his next appearance, Tampa's SNME could be where John Cena goes to boast about his achievement. His shocking heel turn after the 2025 Elimination Chamber is all anyone can talk about currently. With how brutally he ended up beating Cody Rhodes and became The Rock's champion for WrestleMania, John Cena has completely upended the storyline. Now fans are eager and impatient to know what happens next.
