Gunther Calls Cena Win His Biggest Moment – Retiring John Cena stands as the most meaningful victory of Gunther’s professional wrestling career. At last weekend’s Saturday Night’s Main Event, Gunther defeated Cena in the final match of Cena’s storied run, bringing an end to a retirement tour that began back in January. The match concluded with Cena submitting after Gunther locked in a sleeper, a finish that immediately sparked strong reactions from fans and within WWE itself.

Following the match, Gunther spoke with TMZ Inside the Ring and reflected on the magnitude of the moment. He described the victory as something that will stay with him forever and said it is a result he will proudly reference for the rest of his career. According to Gunther, the atmosphere surrounding the event made it clear how significant the night was, not just for Cena, but for the entire company.

“It was definitely the biggest or the most meaningful win, maybe, of my career or the win with the biggest reaction afterwards. That I can definitely say,” Gunther said. “It’s hard to compare to anything else because John Cena has been such a legendary figure in WWE and the wrestling world in general.”

Gunther also noted how serious and tense the mood was backstage throughout the day. He explained that many people treated the event as something even larger than WrestleMania, given what was at stake and the legacy involved.

“It almost felt like more important than WrestleMania to a lot of people backstage,” Gunther said. “The whole day felt like a time bomb waiting to explode at the end.”

The match finish proved controversial, with many fans hoping Cena would close his career with a victory. Addressing that reaction while staying in character, Gunther offered a blunt response.

“Stop crying. Life goes on,” he said.

The win over Cena capped a remarkable year for Gunther, who also defeated Goldberg in his retirement match earlier in 2025. When asked what comes next, Gunther kept his answer brief, telling fans they will need to tune into RAW next Monday to find out.
