Cena is currently in the closing stages of his Retirement Tour that began earlier this year. The 17-time World Champion has had a rollercoaster last run, which includes him turning heel, winning the Undisputed WWE Championship, and also losing once again to Brock Lesnar. The Last Real Champion has just five appearances remaining in his current run, with his next appearance set to be at Crown Jewel in Perth, Australia, on October 11. He will battle AJ Styles at the event.

Veteran says John Cena must win his final WWE match

The curtain is set to close on John Cena's in-ring career, as the 17-time World Champion will be hanging up his wrestling boots on December 13. While the opponent for Cena's final outing inside the squared circle is not known yet, many have speculated that he may put over an up-and-coming star on his way out.

However, wrestling veteran Jim Cornette believes that The Unseen 17 should come out on top in his last match, stressing that the 48-year-old is leaving the wrestling business forever.

On a recent episode of his Drive-Thru podcast, Jim said:

"Yes [Cena must win his final match]," Cornette said. "I know a lot of people are saying, 'Oh, don't you know, Jim? It's wrestling protocol. They should do a job on the way out.' When you're leaving the territory, yes, not when you're leaving the godda*n business."

John Cena has just five more appearances left in his WWE Farewell Tour. The Franchise Player will be in action at Crown Jewel, where he will face AJ Styles in a singles match. After that, Cena will be present on the November 10 and 17 episodes of RAW before making his final premium live event appearance at Survivor Series: WarGames later that month.

Finally, his retirement match will take place at Saturday Night's Main Event on December 13.
