Scott D’Amore Weighs In On John Cena Possibly Losing His Final Match

Scott D’Amore speaks on John Cena and his final match.

There is a belief within the world of wrestling that Gunther will be John Cena’s opponent when he steps into the ring for the last time at Saturday Night’s Main Event in December.

Many fans have praised this decision, but there is still a pocket of people out there that want Cena to face off with somebody else for his final bout.

During his last D’Amore Drop column, Scott D’Amore spoke about the rumors and gave his take on Cena possibly losing the match.

“There’s talk Cena’s final match on Dec. 13 will be against Gunther. Gunther would be a great match, but I don’t think Cena should necessarily beat Gunther. It depends, Ric Flair lost his final match to Shawn Michaels (I know, I know — I helped promote a final, final match years later, but work with me here) and that loss was as emotionally satisfying as any win. But … they did the heel turn that didn’t work. They beat Cena badly with Brock. Maybe giving the fans the high of a feel-good ending is the right decision after all? WWE has a big decision here. They can take the happy ending route with John and have him go out with the W. John has earned that, if indeed he wants it. He carried WWE for two decades. He proved this year that, at age 48, he can still go, and maybe the lights dim on his career with him standing tall? He deserves that kind of exit, one that feels final but respectful — something that lets people celebrate him rather than mourn the end.”

Cena will compete against AJ Styles at WWE Crown Jewel. Fans can check out the full lineup for that show by clicking here.

Back in September, Scott D’Amore revealed that Brock Lesnar was in talks with TNA back in 2007. Check out his full comments here.
