#2. Oba Femi beating Cody clean

Apart from the Cenation Leader's final match, the SNME also features a unique champion vs champion bout between NXT titleholder Oba Femi and Undisputed WWE Champion, Cody Rhodes.

While the American Nightmare is a favorite to beat The Ruler, the creative may leave everyone in shock by letting Oba beat Rhodes clean, building him as a future main eventer.

#1. Batista makes an appearance

Almost all of Cena's arch-rivals made an appearance during his retirement tour. Interestingly, the Animal who shares a significant history with John could shockingly return.

Batista could be part of John's retirement celebration at the end of the show, alongside other superstars; it would be a perfect moment where all the Ruthless Aggression Era legends could reunite to celebrate Cena's iconic WWE career.
