The wrestler, who announced he was going to retire at the end of 2025, has won more titles than anyone in WWE history, overtaking Ric Flair.

Cena beat Cody Rhodes with a bit of help from rapper Travis Scott at the 41st WrestleMania near Las Vegas, USA, this weekend.

John Cena who announced his retirement in July last year, has not been wasting his last months on the circuit.

He shocked fans with a 'heel turn' at the beginning of March ahead of his two UK appearances in Glasgow and London.

With 30 appearances planned in total before his retirement in December, WrestleMania, Vegas is the biggest.

As well as the thousands of fans watching from inside the arena, it was the first time WrestleMania has been shown live on Netflix.

This gave 300 million people a chance to watch as part of their subscription to the streaming platform.
