One of the biggest heel turns in pro wrestling history occurred at Elimination Chamber, when John Cena aligned with The Rock and Travis Scott. Yet while his new villainous persona started off strong, in recent months, many fans have deemed the storyline a letdown.
Therefore, after he stated during this week’s episode of SmackDown that he had flushed his legacy down the toilet for shock television and just wants to be remembered, fans have been debating whether he has officially turned back babyface. And now, seemingly confirming this, Cena has posted a literal baby’s face on Instagram ahead of his match with Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam.
48-year-old Cena announced during last year’s Money In The Bank premium live event that 2025 would be his final year as an in-ring performer. Subsequently, fans would speculate about who the guaranteed future WWE Hall of Famer would wrestle during his final bouts, with a few babyface vs. babyface matches being predicted. However, Cena’s heel turn put a whole new perspective on who he will wrestle during his retirement tour, seeing him face beloved good guys like Cody Rhodes, R-Truth, and Randy Orton.
