The night kicked off with a recap of Cena’s emotional victory over Dominik Mysterio the previous week, where he captured the WWE Intercontinental Championship. As the video faded out, Cena made his entrance to a thunderous reaction from the MSG faithful, their deafening cheers echoing the magnitude of the moment.

With chants of “thank you Cena” filling the arena, he addressed the crowd and reflected on New York’s reputation as the place that “makes or breaks careers.” John Cena hinted at an important message for the WWE Universe—but before he could continue, Dominik Mysterio stormed out to heavy boos.

Dominik wasted no time accusing Cena of being “handed a title shot” and claimed he had been given everything throughout his career. He then challenged Cena to an Intercontinental Championship rematch, only to retract it when Cena agreed.

Insisting things be done on his terms, Dominik declared the rematch would happen in his hometown of San Diego at Survivor Series. Cena accepted but reminded MSG that he had promised them a match and challenged Dominik to a non-title bout on the spot.

JD McDonagh and Finn Balor then hit the stage, joining Dominik as he declined the match and instead threatened to beat Cena down. Judgment Day swarmed John Cena, but the assault was abruptly cut short.

Sheamus charged to the ring to protect Cena, battling off Judgment Day until the numbers caught up to him. Moments later, Rey Mysterio sprinted out, turning the tide. The trio of Cena, Sheamus, and Rey stood united—leading to a challenge for a six-man tag team match.

Rey nailed a double 619 on Finn Balor and JD McDonagh, Sheamus cracked Balor with a Brogue Kick, and Cena sealed the night with an Attitude Adjustment on McDonagh for the victory.
It was a fitting end—an emotional, star-studded farewell that honored John Cena’s legacy while celebrating the bond he shares with the WWE Universe.
