As for John Cena's wrestling status, he is currently making regular appearances on WWE TV and house shows. Cena received one of the biggest pops in recent memory when he confronted Roman Reigns at the end of the Money In The Bank pay-per-view.

The last time he wrestled Roman Reigns was at the 2017 WWE No Mercy event. The Tribal Chief defeated Cena in what many dubbed a "passing of the torch" moment. Cena raised Reigns' hand as well, following the loss.
