First Four Participants Confirmed for WWE’s Last Time Is Now Tournament – The field for WWE’s highly anticipated Last Time Is Now Tournament is beginning to take shape. During Monday’s episode of RAW, General Manager Adam Pearce announced the first four competitors, setting the stage for two major first-round matches.
Sheamus will face Shinsuke Nakamura, while Rusev will battle Damian Priest. Both bouts are scheduled to take place on the November 10 episode of RAW, marking the start of what’s expected to be an emotional and star-studded tournament.
The 16-man competition will culminate with the winner earning the right to face John Cena in his final match on December 13. Cena, who is entering the final stretch of his legendary career, is set to appear live on next week’s RAW — one of his last four appearances before officially retiring.
Four additional tournament participants will be revealed this Friday on WWE SmackDown, continuing the build toward what WWE is billing as a once-in-a-generation farewell for Cena.
The November 10 episode of RAW will also feature several championship bouts. Stephanie Vaquer will defend her WWE Women’s World Championship against Raquel Rodriguez following their tag team clash on Monday, where Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez scored a victory over Vaquer and Nikki Bella.
Meanwhile, Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss will put the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles on the line against The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane), adding another layer of intrigue to an already loaded card.
With Cena returning to Boston for what will be his final WWE appearance in his hometown, the Last Time Is Now Tournament is shaping up to be one of the most emotional and must-see events of the year.

- WWE Women’s World Championship: Stephanie Vaquer (c) vs. Raquel Rodriguez
