Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena's final run has already consisted of several matches against his popular rivals in the Stamford-based promotion. Meanwhile, Sam Roberts predicted that The Franchise Player's final match would feature a major twist involving Bron Breakker.

Bron Breakker became a notable name in the Stamford-based promotion when he had a long run with the NXT Championship. The second-generation star continued the momentum when he moved to WWE's main roster, as he captured the Intercontinental Championship on two occasions.

In an appearance on INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet, WWE analyst Sam Roberts predicted the former two-time NXT, Intercontinental, and one-time NXT Tag Team Champion would be John Cena's final opponent in the company.

"I would want it to be Bron Breakker. because he's a heel. It's like, you're not going to give an up-and-coming babyface a victory over a heel John Cena, because the whole point is that nobody's going to beat him," Roberts said. [H/T - CVV]

Roberts pitched an interesting scenario for the match's finish and wants to see the 17-time world champion return to his roots as a babyface ahead of his final match in December 2025.

"Bron Breakker just gets him with a small package. 123, John Cena made one mistake. Bron Breakker wins. Bron Breakker gets to celebrate. And then, because John Cena didn't get killed, we can then still have a moment for the heels to leave and the babyfaces can come out and congratulate John," Roberts said. [H/T - CVV]

John Cena might never face his former WWE rival again

John Cena crossed paths with CM Punk in the Elimination Chamber match in Toronto before winning the clash and later turning heel heading into WrestleMania 41. A feud between the two former rivals was teased, with the match ultimately occurring in Saudi Arabia, and The Leader of the Cenation walking out of the event with the win.

Speaking on the Night of Champions Post-Show, Triple H reacted to the show and spoke highly of the main event. During this, The Game seemingly confirmed that this might be the final encounter between the two in WWE.

"It is just two generational stars coming together one last time. I think as much as it meant to fans here and around the world. I think that's what it meant to John Cena to see CM Punk. I'm glad we were able to put that fight together to deliver it here in Saudi. I'm glad they got to do it before John called it a day," Hunter said.

The Franchise Player is now slated to defend the title against Cody Rhodes at WWE SummerSlam.
