Former WWE Champion John Cena is currently in the final leg of his retirement tour with the promotion. The 48-year-old has had several memorable moments during his last run as a wrestler, but none would come close to the epic match that he had with AJ Styles at Crown Jewel 2025.

On the surface, the final match between John Cena and AJ Styles seems to have come about after the former gauged interest from fans online. According to a new report, however, internal plans for this WWE Crown Jewel match have been in place for a while.
