5 Former WWE John Cena Rivals Left Off the Farewell Tour

#2. Seth “Freakin” Rollins

When asked about his favorite wrestlers, John Cena mentioned a few of his wrestling soulmates, a long list that included Seth “Freakin” Rollins. As fans may recall, they had an iconic rivalry in the summer of 2015.

Their SummerSlam bout is remembered for Jon Stewart’s random interference. However, remove Stewart from the equation, and you have a five-star classic. Rollins and Cena had fantastic chemistry together in the ring, and Triple H should have put them in the ring together during Cena’s farewell tour.

There was a brief confrontation at Night of Champions 2025. During the climax of CM Punk vs. John Cena, The Vision, led by Seth Rollins, interfered. Rollins and Cena had an intense staredown amid all the chaos.
