John Cena could be engaged in a dream showdown during his retirement tour

John Cena's retirement tour could feature several dream matches that fans have long imagined, potentially including a showdown between Cena and Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship. A clash between the Ring General and the Cenation Leader is something fans have eagerly anticipated for quite some time.

Earlier this month, reports surfaced implying that a match between Gunther and Cena is envisioned to be part of Cena's retirement tour.

With Gunther currently holding the World Heavyweight Championship after defeating Damian Priest at SummerSlam this year, the possibility of this match being for the title is even more enticing.

Given Gunther's dominant reign, it seems unlikely that he will lose the championship anytime soon. If he retains the title into next year, fans could witness John Cena competing in one final World title match before his retirement.
