Is John Cena retired from WWE?

John Cena is just one of the many WWE Superstars who have branched out from wrestling. Now that he has found success in acting, it looks like his time with the sport is numbered.

The last time fans witnessed Cena in action was at last year's SummerSlam against Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship. He later appeared again on an episode of RAW to celebrate his 20-year anniversary and, in his speech, talked about whether he'd wrestle again.

The June 27 episode of the Red brand opened with the veteran being welcomed by the locker room. Later in the WWE RAW episode, he delivered a heartfelt promo where he recalled his career. John also shared that although he won't retire from wrestling just yet, he can't give a definite return date.

"It's been 20 years and I'm 45 years old. So I only state that because I don't know when you're gonna see me in the ring again. I'm not saying you won't, I just don't know when that's gonna be. So I need to say this now, it ain't just gonna be one, don't worry about it. But, I don't know when that's gonna be." [1:33-2:07]
