WWE RAW Results (4/21/25): Live Match Updates and Key Moments

John Cena opened RAW after WrestleMania 41 and made it clear he’s not here to be liked. Cena had the ring announcer read a statement, introducing him as “The Greatest of All Time, the Unseen 17, the Last Real Champion.” The crowd booed, but Cena wasn’t fazed. He said fans turned on him before WrestleMania, and now they want to cheer him just because he’s champion. “That’s not how a real relationship works,” Cena said. “Is that how you treat your wife or kids?”

Cena told the crowd to go straight to hell and said they all owe him an apology—but none of them have the guts to say it. He called out fans for “hijacking RAW” and said they’ve “gone soft.” How do you feel about this new side of John Cena? Let us know in the comments. John Cena says the crowd is chanting “we aren’t sorry,” but he calls them the sorriest low lives he’s ever seen. He says they’re all sorry—and none of them mean anything to him. He calls them a group of idiots and says they’ve taken their best shots at him, but he always gets back up.

Cena points to the Tron, which says “36 dates,” and reminds everyone that he said once those appearances are done, he’s gone. It drops to 27. He clarifies they aren’t matches—just appearances. He doesn’t even have to wrestle. When the countdown hits zero, he says wrestling stops.

He says he’ll take the title home with him—the same title held by Bruno Sammartino, Roman Reigns, CM Punk, Triple H, and Shawn Michaels. He calls himself the last Undisputed Champion.

Cena says the fans had one shot to stop him—Cody Rhodes. He says they turned on Cody and now his name disgusts them. Cena says that’s why Cody got outshined, outclassed, outwrestled, and destroyed at WrestleMania. He says nobody in WWE can match his strength, speed, wisdom, or ruthless aggression.

Then Cena tells fans to take out their phones to capture a photo of the last real champ.

Suddenly, Randy Orton shows up from behind and hits an RKO.

Orton picks up the Undisputed Title and holds it over Cena.

Gigi Dolin and Tatum Paxley are shown in the crowd—they’ll face the winners tomorrow.
