The world of professional wrestling was turned upside down with the shocking turn of events that took place at the 2025 WWE Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event. The ending of the event was game changing and has drastically altered the complexion of the road to WrestleMania 41.
The event ended with John Cena winning the Men’s Elimination Chamber match. His victory punched his ticket for a main event World title match against Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 41. Rhodes came out to congratulate the 16-time WWE Champion but did not even think of the events that happened afterward.
The American Nightmare turned down The Rock’s offer and told him to “Go F*ck Yourself.” At that very moment, John Cena hugged him, but got a signal from The Final Boss. Right then, Cena attacked Rhodes, shockingly turning heel and laying him in the middle of the ring, beaten and battered. This has sent the wrestling world into a frenzy, with rumors and updates rolling in on the road to WrestleMania.
Is The Rock now slated for a match and future appearances on the road to WrestleMania 41?
According to a new report by PWInsider, The Rock and John Cena will form a new and powerful alliance heading into WrestleMania 41. In regards to a potential match at the show after returning to WWE, the report added that he is still not working a match at The Show of Shows this year.
Furthermore, in a report by WrestleVotes, The Rock is expected to appear alongside The Cenation Leader for one of the RAW overseas events. Many events are scheduled as part of their European tour, and The Final Boss is likely to appear leading up to WrestleMania 41.
As part of the same storyline, it seems that The Rock has bigger problems to worry about than Cody Rhodes on the road to WrestleMania. On the RAW after Elimination Chamber, CM Punk did not hold back and launched a verbal assault on both The Rock and John Cena, claiming that he would see them down the road.
Now surpassed 1,000,000 views on WWE’s official YouTube channel:

In a report by Fightful Select, Punk’s verbal tirade promo was received very well backstage. All the credit went to CM Punk and the writer responsible for writing the heated promo, Alexandra Williams. In that same round of reports, Fightful also stated there is no word regarding Trish Stratus’ involvement on the road to WrestleMania 41 after her appearances leading up to a match at the Elimination Chamber PLE.
Will John Cena be making multiple appearances on WWE’s road to WrestleMania 41?
The world is waiting for answers from John Cena on his reason for abandoning every principle he lived by his entire life and embracing the evil side by aligning with The Rock at the 2025 WWE Elimination Chamber PLE. The WWE Universe is likely to get those answers following new updates regarding Cena’s appearances.
Earlier, WWE advertised John Cena for three major appearances on RAW as part of the company’s European tour. The 16-time WWE Champion will be appearing in Brussels on March 17th, Glasgow on March 24th, and London on March 31st, where fans could possibly get their answers to John Cena’s shocking heel turn.
Following that, WWE has added three more dates for John Cena’s appearances. He will be appearing for SmackDown shows on May 30th in Knoxville, Tennessee; June 13th in Lexington, Kentucky; and June 20th in Grand Rapids, Michigan. As the road to WrestleMania 41 continues to progress, it will surely culminate with a blockbuster show in Las Vegas, Nevada, this year.
