John Cena’s Last Bell
Manage episode 524099059 series 3568448
The bell is about to ring on a career that shaped a generation, and we’re here to call the night with clear eyes and full hearts. We break down a WWE vs NXT card built for pure match quality, no belts on the line, just pride, and weigh how each result could ripple into winter storylines. From the opening tag featuring AJ Styles and Dragon Lee against Je’Von Evans and Leon Slater to a high-wire test between Bayley and Sol Ruca, we talk chemistry, momentum, and why exhibition victories still matter when you’re chasing credibility.
Finally, we sit with the weight of John Cena’s farewell. We revisit our favorite Cena matches AJ Styles’ pure in-ring clinic, the CM Punk promo masterclass, and the wars with Randy Orton to track what longevity really takes. And we face the classic question: should legends leave on their backs to elevate the future? With Gunther looming as a perfect legacy collector, we talk tradition, emotion, and the kind of ending that honors two decades of work while setting the table for the next era.
