John Cena vs Gunther Preview: WWE's Greatest Retirement Match?
This week on The Golden Shovel Wrestling Podcast, we dive into one of the biggest stories in modern WWE — John Cena’s last ever match against Gunther at Saturday Night’s Main Event. We break down the build, what it means for both men, and the legacy Cena leaves behind.
We also chat through all the major happenings from Raw and SmackDown, including:
- LA Knight’s position on the card – is WWE cooling him off, or is a major push coming?
- Has Lyra Valkyria’s momentum been wasted? We look at her booking, her upside, and what needs to change.
- The Usos return to the tag division – what this means for the landscape, potential feuds, and long-term direction.
- Why isn’t Jade Cargill getting enough heat? We talk character, presentation, and how WWE can unlock her full potential.
As always, expect big opinions, weekly storytelling breakdowns, and plenty of golden shovel moments.
