John Cena’s final WWE match will take place at Saturday Night’s Main Event on Dec. 13 in Washington, the company solidified on Tuesday.
The event will take place at the Capital One Arena, ending a pro wrestling era that saw him win WWE world championships 17 times – including the record-setter at WrestleMania 41.
“John’s contributions to WWE are immeasurable. There are no words that can truly relay how much he means to this business,” WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque said in a press release. “Together with our partners at Events DC and Capital One Arena, we look forward to honoring his legacy and delivering an unforgettable send-off for both John and the WWE Universe.”
WWE said tickets for Cena’s final match will go on sale on Oct. 17 at 10 a.m. ET. Ticketmaster will have a presale event to purchase tickets on Oct. 15.
WWE also partnered with ghostwrite to release an exclusive collective toy featuring Cena. The product can be purchased via blind auction starting Tuesday.
