John Cena will be taking part in his last Men's Royal Rumble match in 2025 during his farewell tour. However, he is unlikely to win the Men's Rumble due to the losing streak he has been going through in the singles televised matches. With CM Punk having more reasons to win, Cena might not be the eventual Royal Rumble winner.

John Cena last wrestled in a singles match against Solo Sikoa at Crown Jewel 2023. He was injured and had to remain out of action for over 4 months. Cena returned at WrestleMania XL and took out Solo to help Cody Rhodes to win his world title. On WWE Raw after Mania, Cena won thr tag team match against the Judgement Day.

At the Money in the Bank, John returned and announced his retirement tour. He showed up on WWE Raw on Netflix and announced his name for the Men's Royal Rumble match. He made one thing clear to the fans that becoming a 17th-time world champion will be nearly impossible for him.

How CM Punk and Roman Reigns can affect John Cena's Royal Rumble loss?

It seems like the creative team is up for a long haul during Cena's retirement tour. While it might be fair to give Cena his moment, it might not be ideal to let him win the Royal Rumble in his very first match in action since returning on Netflix Premiere. 

To involve the fans more in the story towards Cena's historic milestone, the star wrestler has to lose some matches. Royal Rumble is a PLE where he might have to lose. CM Punk might have more reasons to win the Men's Royal Rumble match in 2025.

As on date, the second city saint has not won the Royal Rumble even once. Him winning the Men's Rumble match would ensure his first-ever WrestleMania Main Event. There could also be a case of Roman Reigns winning the Rumble leading to his rematch with Cody. All these lead to Cena's chances of winning the Men's Rumble match slightly slimmer.
