The heart of the matter
In response to the possibility of leaving WWE, Cena stated that he doesn't see himself ever being disconnected from WWE. Cena further added that no matter if it's an on-camera role or an off-camera/backstage role, he'll never retire.
I think whether it’s an on-camera role or an off-camera role, I don’t think the word ‘retire’ I’ll ever use that.
Cena also mentioned that he wants to pass the knowledge he has gained over the years, to young newcomers, helping them in the process.
So I know that time is limited because it’s a physical, performance-based thing, and I’m 42, so I know that window is kind of coming to a close, but I don’t think I’ll ever be retired. I would love to be able to pass on the knowledge and wisdom that I have about live performances to up-and-comers and hopefully help people out.
What's next?
Someone of the stature of Cena taking the role of a backstage role as an advisor to new talent certainly seems like a promising idea.
Would you like for Cena to take on the role of a backstage advisor or producer somewhere down the line?
