John Cena Wins Record 17th WWE Title at WrestleMania

John Cena made history at WrestleMania 41 by defeating Cody Rhodes to become a 17-time World Champion, surpassing Ric Flair’s record and ending an eight-year title drought. The match included controversial interference by Travis Scott and the absence of The Rock, which contributed to mixed reactions from fans and critics. Following his win, Cena taunted fans on Raw, declared himself 'The Last Real Champion,' and stated he will retire with the Undisputed WWE Championship after 27 more appearances, prompting WWE to create a new title. Cena’s villainous persona and outside celebrity involvement have divided audiences and raised questions about WWE’s creative direction. Other major WrestleMania 41 moments included Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods reclaiming tag team gold and Bianca Belair’s undefeated streak ending. Randy Orton is now set to challenge Cena for the championship.
