Following the 2025 Royal Rumble, in which Cena was the runner-up, he announced his participation in the Men's Elimination Chamber match. Presumably, WWE will follow the same format as last year and have the winner earn a championship match at WrestleMania 41.

WWE Royal Rumble boasts the most loaded men’s and women’s Rumble in history. Here's why John Cena will be one of many big stars going home empty-handed.
