#3. John Cena might bring a new Undisputed WWE title

John Cena's Spinner Championship got a massive heat from the fans, and as Cena has all the plans to ruin wrestling for them, The Cenation Leader will not hesitate to bring a new Undisputed WWE title.

Fans might see the veteran bringing up an updated version of the spinner title, as he wants more nuclear heat from the WWE Universe. An angle like this will enhance Cena's final run as World Champion, making it even more special to watch.

Additionally, during the post-show conference, the Champion confirmed that he will appear on RAW to ruin wrestling. Therefore, it's likely that he will bring the new title ton the show.

#2. A match against Randy Orton at Backlash 2025

Even before WrestleMania 41, John Cena and Randy Orton were anticipated to clash at the Backlash 2025 Premium Live Event. This speculation gained widespread attention after The Viper was prominently featured in the official post for the Backlash PLE.

So, as Cena is advertised to make his appearance on SmackDown after WrestleMania, it's likely that he will be confronted by the Legend Killer. This confrontation will set up Orton vs. Cena for the next PLE, with the Undisputed WWE title on the line.

Also, due to the history between these two stars, the Apex Predator appears to be the perfect opponent for John Cena's 17th World title reign.

#1. John Cena might create a new faction of his own

The Rock was notably absent from WrestleMania, suggesting that he might not return to the company anytime soon. With The Franchise Player now the Undisputed Champion, he might create a new faction to ensure a lengthy title reign.

This could be done to make things interesting even in the absence of The People's Champion, and when The Rock returns, he will align himself with Cena's new potential faction.
