Cena, who turned 48 this year, is a worldwide phenomenon with immense popularity among kids and adults. It is worth noting that Cena began his retirement tour, finishing as runner-up to Jey Uso at the 'Royal Rumble in February.

He sealed his status as the number one contender to the WWE Undisputed Championship at the 'Elimination Chamber' and eventually defeated Cody Rhodes to secure his record 17th world championship.

This was followed by a successful title defence against old rivals Randy Orton and CM Punk. However, at Summerslam, he lost the title to Cody in August.

A quick-paced match with Logan Paul followed at 'Clash in Paris' event, followed by a defeat to a returning Brock Lesnar at 'Wrestlepalooza' in September. Cena's retirement tour this year has seen him go back to some of his old rivalries and share the ring with some new talent.
