The 47-year-old legend remained a babyface for over two decades. However, he shockingly turned heel last Saturday at Elimination Chamber, attacking Cody Rhodes and aligning himself with The Rock. After winning the Men's Chamber Match, a villainous and ruthless Cena will now challenge The American Nightmare for the Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania 41.

Speaking on his 83 Weeks podcast, Bischoff predicted that Cena would revert to being babyface before the end of the year:

"[Do you think Cena will remain a heel the whole year?] No, but it's going to be da*n near close to a year. He'll see the light but it won't be until the very end. That's what I would do," he said. [25:45 - 26:03]

Another WWE Hall of Famer thinks John Cena will turn babyface again

While addressing John Cena's heel turn on the Busted Open podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray predicted that John Cena will become a babyface again before ending his Farewell Tour.

The wrestling legend speculated that the Leader of the Cenation would only remain a heel until WrestleMania 41:

"I don't think John Cena is going to remain a heel throughout his retirement tour. Let's just go by this final 10 months. I don't believe Cena runs it out as a heel. As a matter of fact, I'll take a guess here, and listen, I was not right about the Cena heel turn at all. I'm the one who said, 'Nah, don't think it's gonna happen.' I think Cena is the heel up until WrestleMania," he said.
