John Cena’s WWE Title chances are slim at WrestleMania 41 – Here's why

Despite bringing out his evil side after twenty years, there is still a possibility that John Cena will not leave WrestleMania 41 as WWE Champion.John Cena has given up his principles of 'Hustle, Loyalty, and Respect' after twenty years at the end of the 2025 WWE Elimination Chamber PLE. He finally embraced the hate and severed his ties with the fans who he believed had treated him abusively. Moreover, Cena has his sights set on winning wrestling for everyone at WrestleMania 41 by defeating Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship and etch his name in history as a record-setting 17th World Championship. However, despite his aggressive side finally being evident, here are three reasons Cena might not walk out of WrestleMania 41 as the Undisputed WWE Championship:The new WWE regime, led by WWE CCO Paul "Triple H" Levesque, has been throwing curveballs at every major step on the road to WrestleMania. In an effort to close out WrestleMania 41 in a dramatic manner like last year, there is a chance that John Cena might be screwed out of the match. It can happen by none other than the man who corrupted him to turn heel, The Rock, with a double turn. This could see Cody Rhodes giving in to The Final Boss' demands and Rock berating Cena to help Rhodes retain his Undisputed WWE Title. If not that, Steve Austin, who is rumored to appear at the show, can be the one to cost Cena the win.Cody Rhodes has been at the peak of his wrestling career, both inside and outside the ring. The American Nightmare has proven his worth as a top-tier in-ring competitor, which has led to some captivating matches and a remarkable year-long title reign in WWE. Cena himself has been open about his physical limitations, which have been evident on numerous occasions for the last few years. Cody Rhodes having more prowess than Cena in the ring today can lead to Cena's downfall on The Grandest Stage of Them All.Ever since John Cena began his farewell tour, the conversation around it has been about Cena winning his record-breaking 17th World Championship. WWE can save this historic moment for The Cenation Leader's final match in a WWE ring. This could be the perfect way to send off one of the greatest WWE superstars of all time by having him retire as the World Champion and have a storybook ending to his illustrious WWE career.Also read: “Because you realized at your best you can’t wipe my a**”: John Cena BURIES Cody Rhodes
