John Cena, a WWE icon, is scheduled for his final wrestling match this Saturday in Washington D.C., marking the end of a career that began in 2002. Over 8,570 days, Cena secured 17 world titles and became known for his "You Can't See Me" catchphrase. While his in-ring ability faced some criticism, Cena became a top draw for WWE from 2005 to 2015, driving pay-per-view buys, TV ratings, and merchandise sales. The event, WWE Saturday Night's Main Event, will be available on WWE's YouTube channel in the UK, Netflix internationally, and Peacock in the US, starting at 01:00 GMT on Sunday, December 14.
