John Cena has made history again—this time in the most controversial way possible. In the main event of WrestleMania Night at Allegiant Stadium, Cena defeated Cody Rhodes to claim the Undisputed WWE Championship, becoming a 17-time world champion and breaking Ric Flair’s long-standing record.
The match was anything but straightforward. Cena, who recently shocked fans with a heel turn, leaned fully into his new villainous persona. After a hard-fought contest, rapper Travis Scott made a surprise appearance, interfering just as Rhodes seemed poised for victory. Scott pulled the referee out of the ring, halting Rhodes' pin attempt, and then became embroiled in the chaos himself.
Seizing the moment, Cena delivered a low blow to Rhodes and struck him with the championship belt before pinning him for the win. The crowd of nearly,00 watched as Cena, now a full-fledged heel, celebrated his record-setting triumph—while Rhodes’ year-long reign ended in heartbreak.
This victory comes during what Cena has called his retirement tour, with plans to step away from the ring later in. Whether this is truly Cena’s last WrestleMania remains to be seen, but his legacy as WWE’s most decorated champion is now undisputed.
