John Cena will retire from WWE in-ring competition at the end of 2025. In a recent podcast episode, John Bradshaw Layfield (JBL) addressed whether the wrestling icon could interact with Bruce Prichard before bidding farewell to fans.
From CM Punk and Cody Rhodes to Logan Paul and Randy Orton, Cena has shared the ring with several wrestlers during his 2025 retirement tour. The 48-year-old has also paid homage to some of his greatest rivals by using their moves during his matches.
Prichard returned to WWE as a creative team member in 2019 after an 11-year absence. JBL, a temporary stand-in for the 62-year-old on Something to Wrestle, said he would like to see Prichard on television with Cena.
"I think it would be cool, and I think there is a chance. You know, Cena's going through kind of this great retirement tour where he's doing guys' finishes, he's doing all kinds of stuff that he wants to do. Good for him, he deserves every bit of it. I'm glad that he's getting to do all this, and so, yeah, if John wants it, I'm sure it'll happen, and I hope it does because that would be a lot of fun."During the episode, Something to Wrestle host Conrad Thompson hinted that Prichard will return to the podcast soon. JBL has been filling in for the WWE executive since November 2024.
