The 17-time world champion is set to retire during the December 13th edition of Saturday Night's Main Event, which will take place in Washington, D.C. A 16-man tournament is currently taking place, with the winner determining who will face Cena in his retirement match.

Brodie Lee Jr. (aka Negative One) recently did a Q&A on Instagram and posted his responses to Stories. A fan recently asked him if he'll be around for John Cena's retirement match. The honorary leader of the Dark Order responded by claiming he'd be around, as he'd be the one facing him in the ring.

The AEW name was recently spotted with John Cena

Negative One made his first appearance in wrestling when he was just 8. This came following the sudden passing of his father, and he was around when they honored him in AEW. He was also given the title of honorary leader of the Dark Order.

He looks to continue his father's legacy by also becoming a wrestler, as he has been training at Natalya and TJ Wilson's wrestling school, Dungeon 2.0. It was then that he met John Cena, who was visiting the school earlier this month.

Brodie Lee Jr. even took to Instagram and posted their picture together before sending out a short and sweet message to the WWE legend. He thanked him and called him the Greatest of All Time.

"Thank you to the 🐐," he wrote.

As of writing, it is still unclear who John Cena's final opponent will be, as the Last Time is Now Tournament is still ongoing. But whoever this ends up being will be getting the opportunity of a lifetime.
