Earlier this year, the 47-year-old legend returned to express his desire to win his 17th world championship before retiring. After failing to win the Men's Royal Rumble, he claimed it would be best for business if he headlined WrestleMania, vowing to break his and Ric Flair's record for the most world title reigns recognized by the Stamford-based company. Cena earned his opportunity to face Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes at The Show of Shows after winning the Men's Elimination Chamber. However, he surprisingly turned heel and aligned with The Rock after the match.

Speaking on his and Mandy Rose's Power Alphas podcast, Sabbatelli predicted that Cena's final run would witness another twist that would see The Franchise Player turn babyface again.

"I don't know how to say this. I think John Cena has been such a legend for so long that we're all intrigued on his heel turn but, for me personally, it's like, I think he turns back. I don't know about WrestleMania, but I think [before he ends his Farewell Tour]. Yes, because he kinda gave this whole thing, this is, like, his last run; why would you be like the greatest babyface? So, I think there's gonna be some sort of twist at WrestleMania. I mean, this is my prediction," he said. [12:35-13:08]

"I have thought that and thought that and thought that from the beginning but something in my gut tells me Cody could retain. Well, and I'll tell you why. I think John Cena is really giving back to the business," he said.
