It probably wouldnâ€t happen, but speaking as a fan, Peter Rosenberg wants to see one of the Ruthless Aggression Eraâ€s biggest icons as John Cenaâ€s final opponent in WWE.
Cenaâ€s ultimate sendoff is set for WWE Saturday Nightâ€s Main Event on December 13. The GOAT reiterated that he wonâ€t be wrestling past his retirement date and encouraged fans to see him in action one final time in Washington, D.C.
WWE has yet to announce John Cenaâ€s final opponent. Gunther has reportedly been tipped to deliver the final chop to the Cenation Leader, while Dominik Mysterio has also expressed his willingness to “put the final nail†in Cenaâ€s coffin.
That said, WWE personality Peter Rosenberg believes a former superstar should face Cena at WWE SNME in December. During a recent appearance on INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet, Rosenberg named Dave Bautista as the person heâ€d like to see end Cenaâ€s career for good.
“Because weâ€ve talked about all the people who make sense, and a name that just hasnâ€t gotten mentioned very much, itâ€s super unlikely, and Iâ€m probably reaching here, but when you think about what they represented a certain time, the last Saturday Nightâ€s Main Event happens to be in DC, if you hear this [plays Batistaâ€s theme].â€
When CVV said Dave gave his word he wonâ€t wrestle again, Rosenberg said he believes Bautista meant it, but he still selfishly would love to see it happen.
“So I think youâ€re right, and I think he meant that, and I respect that. I personally as a fan, and who cares what we think, itâ€s about what he wants in his life. But Iâ€m selfish, and Iâ€m a fan. Iâ€m not satisfied with the editing. I would love to see Batista one more time. I think thereâ€s more. I just think thereâ€s one more story to be told.â€
Rosenberg went on to note that Batista and Cena were always positioned as the two representatives of the Ruthless Aggression era. This includes on the SmackDown vs. RAW 2005 video game cover, so it would be fitting to see them finish up together.
John Cenaâ€s Peacemaker role was originally meant for Batista
John Cena has received massive praise for his performance in HBO Maxâ€s Peacemaker series. Cena played the titular character across two seasons. Although fans are eager for a third installment, showrunner James Gunn has confirmed that Peacemakerâ€s story will continue in the upcoming Man of Tomorrow movie.
Gunn previously revealed that he originally wrote the Peacemaker character with Dave Bautista in mind. The Animal had worked with Gunn on Marvelâ€s Guardians of the Galaxy franchise, where he portrayed Drax. Warner Bros. even offered the role of Peacemaker to Bautista, but the former WWE superstar turned it down due to other commitments.
“I wrote the character of Peacemaker for him, and we offered him the role, but [he] was offered two movies, and we werenâ€t paying him a lot, so he had to go where the money was,†James Gunn revealed on The Howard Stern Show.
During a recent episode of the official Peacemaker podcast, Gunn revealed John Cena learned to get tased for the show. Fans can read his full comments here.
