John Cena’s final match is set for December 13th at Saturday Night’s Main Event in Washington, DC — a historic night for WWE and one fans have been waiting years to see. But now, a brand‑new update adds an emotional twist: Stephanie McMahon will be co‑hosting the broadcast, and she’s already preparing herself for an unforgettable—and overwhelming—moment.
Speaking with Meghan Morant, Stephanie McMahon revealed that she’ll be calling Cena’s final bout alongside Joe Tessitore. While fans are gearing up for Cena’s last ride, Stephanie admitted she hasn’t even processed how she will feel that night, because her mind has been entirely on Cena’s journey.
“I’m actually co-hosting with Joe Tessitore, so I’m going to have to keep my emotions in check a bit.”
McMahon went on to talk about what it means to witness Cena’s rise, career, and retirement from her unique vantage point—someone who saw his earliest days and watched him transform into one of WWE’s biggest global stars.
“I haven’t really thought about how I’m going to feel — I’ve only been thinking about John. But I have to say, I’ve had the most unbelievable blessings in my life. To be there, to witness a star be born and then see that star go out on their shield, so to speak — it’s such a privilege. It’s something I can’t really put into words.”
Stephanie added that she rarely considers moments like these from her own perspective, because being part of WWE at any level is meaningful by itself—especially during a farewell as significant as Cena’s.
“I’ve never really thought about it from my perspective. But just being part of this business in any way is special, especially when it means being a part of someone’s remarkable journey.”
John Cena’s last match already promised history, but now—with Stephanie McMahon stepping in as co-host—the night is shaping up to be even more emotionally charged.
