According to Post Wrestling‘s Brandon Thurston, live event trade publication Pollstar has revealed the number of tickets that were sold for John Cena’s retirement show, Saturday Night’s Main Event. The report mentioned that WWE pulled in a whopping $6,553,883 in ticket sales. This is the highest arena gate of all-time for any wrestling show by a big margin.

The report also highlighted that the previous record was set by RAW’s debut on Netflix in January 2025, which sits at the second spot with $4,898,365. For several years, WrestleMania V was the highest-grossing event for a wrestling show. However, even if inflation is taken into account, Cena’s retirement has shattered all records by a big margin.

John Cena talked about an Easter Egg that everyone missed in his final WWE match

During a recent interview with No-Contest Wrestling, John Cena revealed that he tried to grow out his hair like his character, Prototype, in OVW (Ohio Valley Wrestling).

“There are so many Easter eggs that people don’t know about, to the point even for the match against GUNTHER, I tried to grow my hair out like the Prototype from UPW, like in OVW,” he said.

He added that he couldn’t dye his hair because of other projects outside wrestling, but he grew his hair and came for his retirement match with a slick back, similar to Prototype, which everyone missed.

It remains to be seen when WWE fans will get to see John Cena back on television.
