John Cena is chasing his 17th WWE World Championship. At WrestleMania 41, he will challenge Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship in hopes of breaking Ric Flair’s record and winning his first title since 2017.

The 47-year-old superstar became the #1 contender after winning the 2025 Men’s Elimination Chamber Match by last eliminating CM Punk. He also tied Triple H’s record of winning four Elimination Chamber Matches.

Cena hasn’t won a televised singles match in six years. His last televised win was against Triple H at the 2018 Greatest Royal Rumble Premium Live Event. In recent years, he has lost to Solo Sikoa, Austin Theory, and Roman Reigns.
