John Cena Set to Compete on 11/17 WWE RAW at Madison Square Garden – John Cena has officially announced that he will step inside the ring on Monday Night RAW one last time. His final match on WWE’s flagship program is set for the November 17, 2025 episode, which will air live from Madison Square Garden. Cena released a statement reflecting on his long history with RAW, confirming that the upcoming bout will mark his final appearance on Monday nights as an active competitor.
“Over 23 years you’ve allowed me to have 544 matches on WWE Raw. The most in WWE history. My favorite match.. is my next one! Which will be our LAST ONE!”
Cena’s farewell match taking place at MSG adds historic weight to the moment, as the arena has been home to many of his most notable WWE milestones. His opponent for the November 17 match has not been revealed, but anticipation continues to build as the date approaches. Cena encouraged fans not to miss his last MSG appearance on RAW, stating it will be their final chance to watch him compete on Monday nights during the live broadcast on Netflix at 8 p.m. EST.
The match is part of Cena’s “Last Time is Now” retirement tour, which concludes on December 13 at Saturday Night’s Main Event in Washington, D.C. This final run has already been filled with emotional moments, including Cena capturing the Intercontinental Championship for the first time just a week earlier when he defeated Dominik Mysterio in Boston to become a Grand Slam Champion.
Cena’s final RAW match headlines what is already shaping up to be a major night for WWE. Women’s Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch is scheduled to defend her title against Maxxine Dupri, adding championship stakes to the event.
Additionally, the “Last Time is Now” tournament — designed to determine Cena’s final opponent — continues on this episode with two first-round matches. Solo Sikoa will compete against a mystery opponent, while GUNTHER goes one-on-one with NXT standout Je’Von Evans. Both matches could have major implications for who ultimately stands across the ring from Cena in his retirement match next month.
As the countdown to November 17 continues, WWE fans are preparing to witness the end of an era. Cena’s final match on RAW marks another step toward the conclusion of a career that has helped define WWE for more than two decades. WrestlingAttitude.Com will provide full coverage of the episode from Madison Square Garden.
