TKO Group Brings New Holiday Schedule To WWE

Under the new TKO Group regime, the WWE calendar has slowed during the holidays. Currently, Survivor Series in San Diego is the last official scheduled PLE of the year. That event takes place on November 29 from inside Petco Park.

The final major event of the 2025 WWE calendar year is Saturday Night's Main Event on December 13. Tickets for that event went on sale this week and will feature John Cena is final WWE match ever.

Cena has spent the entirety of 2025 on a retirement tour and December 13 is the final spot on that tour. Cena's opponent for that night and his final match have not been announced at this time.

Reports indicate that Gunther is a top choice to be John Cena's final opponent. Other final opponent options include Brock Lesnar — who Cena recently lost to at the first-ever Wrestlepalooza PLE on ESPN. Throughout Cena's retirement tour run, he's faced old foes like Randy Orton, CM Punk, R-Truth, and Zayn, but also has developed new rivalries with Cody Rhodes.

Cena and Rhodes wrestled in the main event of WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas and SummerSlam in New Jersey. Cena won the WrestleMania encounter and Rhodes was victorious at SummerSlam.
