John Cena broke the internet when he speculated about a potential match with AJ Styles<\/a> during a recent episode of Raw. Cena last wrestled against Brock Lesnar in a losing effort at Wrestlepalooza<\/a>. Fans were disappointed with both the match and its outcome. Now, Cena has made a bold claim.<\/p>\n

John Cena Says He Doesn\u2019t Pick His WWE Opponents<\/h2>\n

John Cena initially hinted at a match with AJ Styles but later clarified the next morning that he doesn\u2019t choose his opponents. The Cenation Leader knows how to set things in motion. Cena then suggested that WWE should always listen to the fans. The 17-time World Champion directly addressed AJ Styles, asking if he was listening.<\/p>\n

Cena also tried to catch Triple H\u2019s attention by using a variation of the \u201cAre You Ready?\u201d catchphrase, asking the WWE Creative Head if he was listening<\/a>. Interestingly, Cena\u2019s interest in facing Styles stands out, as the Hollywood superstar has not targeted anyone specific during his retirement tour. The tour began with his appearance on the Raw Netflix debut episode on January 6, 2025.<\/p>\n
