John Cena\u2019s in-ring career with WWE<\/a> is coming to an end.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s considered to be one of the greatest pro wrestlers to embark on a career with the company and the dynasty that he helped create has seen him win 17 WWE titles, including the one he won at WrestleMania 41. Cena\u2019s final match will take place on Saturday at Saturday Night\u2019s Main Event against Gunther, who earned the right to take on the legendary superstar.<\/p>\n

Cena reflected on his career in an interview with Tom Rinaldi<\/a>, which aired Monday night. He was asked about a piece of criticism that stuck with him through his career.<\/p>\n

The Massachusetts native<\/a> said it was a three-word chant from the audience in the middle of his career \u2013 “You can\u2019t wrestle.”<\/p>\n

“The \u2018You can\u2019t wrestle\u2019 chants because I would do the same five moves every night and win all the time,” Cena said. “And what I hear from the audience is I\u2019m seeing other performers do these fantastic things and then at the end of the night, I see you do five moves and win because I\u2019m, in the throughline of the story, setting up a dynasty and if it ain\u2019t your guy, dynasties are tough. So, I\u2019ve learned that.”<\/p>\n

Cena said he didn\u2019t bristle at the chants. Instead, it drove him to be better and to expand his move set.<\/p>\n

“In hearing that line, I\u2019d just be into doing more stuff. And it looked janky and \u2018unorthodox\u2019 but I listened and I went back to wrestling school halfway through my career,” he said. “I went to newer performers and asked what you think I\u2019ll be good at? Can you teach me some stuff? And newer performers like Sami Zayn, like Kevin Owens, like when A.J. Styles first came, CM Punk. Teach me some stuff. How can I do better? Make you look good, that\u2019s always my lead, and what can you teach me? And that\u2019s from the audience, chanting at the top of their lungs, \u2018You can\u2019t wrestle.\u2019<\/p>\n

“Our audience will continue to lean in until they get you and it didn\u2019t get me. \u2026 I\u2019ll try to be better and not make it be a hard reset. I\u2019ll try to be better and be my authentic self.”<\/p>\n

Cena\u2019s career spanned 25 years with several championships under his belt. His retirement tour this year started at the Royal Rumble where he finished as the runner-up in the match.<\/p>\n

He won the Elimination Chamber match to go up against Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship. He stunned fans with a heel turn that could only draw comparisons to Hulk Hogan<\/a>. The heel persona only lasted a few months as he was back to the babyface fans grew to love and adore by the summer.<\/p>\n

He and Rhodes battled one more time<\/a> for the title at SummerSlam. He also had matches with Punk, Styles, Logan Paul, Brock Lesnar and Dominik Mysterio during the year.<\/p>\n
