Cena has enjoyed rivalries with some iconic names throughout his career, battling the likes of Randy Orton, Brock Lesnar and AJ Styles.
But it is an up-and-coming WWE star that has declared he is ‘VERY ready’ to retire the Leader of the Cenation.
It all started on Twitter when a fan suggested that Cena needs to go out on the ‘highest level’ as they named Kross as the ideal man to retire him.
The NXT king saw that tweet and replied: “I would be honoured… and VERY ready.”
Just hours later it was Cena’s turn to respond.
He posted a photo of Kross in NXT on Instagram, but in his typical fashion, he did not include a caption.
That certainly excited Kross as he returned the favour with a snap of Cena in WWE action.
