John Cena was on his longest WWE run in over six years, as fans were just happy to see him on WWE television every week. That run more or less ended after Crown Jewel, but he isn’t done wrestling just yet. To add to that, Cena also revealed his post-WWE retirement goals.

John Cena squared off against Solo Sikoa at the Crown Jewel Premium Live Event in Saudi Arabia. The Leader of Cenation was systematically dismantled and then brutalized by the young Samoan, as Cena lost the match. He would then tease retirement immediately afterwards.

While speaking on the Impaulsive podcast, the Leader of Cenation was asked if he wanted to compete in another match. Cena made it clear he does want to compete again as he isn’t done wrestling just yet.

Yes, I hope so. I’m not officially done. I know that I’m close. I’m close. I can feel it. Especially seeing you [Logan Paul] out there, doing incredible stuff. Our talent now, the product has become so crisp and so fast and so skilled. It is a different world. I love and I still feel fluent. I would like to say goodbye when I still feel fluent. It’s coming and to the point where…you know the moment in the sunset where it starts to go down, ‘Man, it’s going down real fast.’ That’s kind of where I’m at. I’m not done, but I need to decide when I am.”

The 16-time World Champion ruled out taking an executive role like Triple H but expressed a desire to contribute his time to the wrestling business. Living near the Performance Center, he envisions going in as a guest, engaging in conversations and mentoring talent and just imparting his wisdom, more than anything.

“No. What I would love to give to the business is my time. I live very close to the Performance Center and I would like to go in as a guest and that way I’m not obligated and they’re not obligated in any way. It’s stuff I do on my free time anyway. I love going in and picking people’s brains and have conversations. ‘So, who are you?’ ‘What does that have to do with anything?’ ‘Only everything. Let’s talk.’ I enjoy that.

Doing half a day there and then going back to normal life. I’m fortunate enough to have some other stuff going on and I’ll be focusing on that too, but I always want to be involved in the business. I get so passionate about it and it’s something that I love and I think I have a few pieces of wisdom that need to be passed on, I don’t think it should die with me. I’ll try to do that the best I can.”

John Cena also revealed the ideal spot for his final WWE match. Regardless, we’ll have to wait and see when Cena will return to WWE television in the future, as it might still be a while.
