The match, scheduled for February 1st at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, is one that Cena just doesn't want to compete in.
“I'm going to win the Royal Rumble,” he told the fans.
Now, Cena has stated that there would be a better chance of winning an Oscar than becoming a 17-time WWE Champion, which would be a record.
However, if he wins the Royal Rumble, he will automatically receive a World Championship match Wrestlemania 41Which gave him a chance in WWE history.
So, as Cena always says, never give up. It may be unlikely, but he seems determined to go out with a bang in his final year.
It's unclear how many events Cena will be participating in this year, but his recent appearances have indicated a very huge agenda in the coming months.
