Some surprise appearances could be on the cards for John Cena's final match in the WWE before he retires from wrestling with even rumours that US President Donald Trump could show up.
The 48-year-old will bring the curtain down on his glittering wrestling career this weekend with one final appearance in the ring and his last match being against Gunther at Saturday Night's Main Event.
It is the last of four planned matches at the event, which will begin with Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes facing NXT Champion Oba Femi and be followed by a female singles match as Bayley takes on Sol Ruca.

And immediately before Cena faces Gunther, there will be a a tag team match as AJ Styles and Dragon Lee face the duo of Je'Von Evans and Leon Slater.
Cena is one of the all-time legends of wrestling having held the WWE Championship on a record 14 occasions, plus becoming the World Heavyweight Championship three times, and has also won multiple other championships with the company.
In a recent interview for WWE, Cena made it clear he has chosen to retire due to a desire not to downgrade the product that the sports entertainment business offers.
He said: "I made a promise to the WWE that I would not stick around when my skills can't match the product, and they can't.
"I'm 48. My 40-yard time has gone like [down]. I can't match up with the product now, and that's okay, because what I do isn't who I am.
"The realization of that has helped me come to like, no, let these guys have it now because they're really good.
"All I would be doing is a disservice to the consumer if I go any point beyond this."
Ahead of the event commencing this evening, reports have emerged suggested that a couple of legendary figures in wrestling could make appearances.
Among these is the anticipated return of Jesse 'The Body' Ventura after he missed the last edition of Saturday Night's Main Event.
In addition to this, PWInsider reports that World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk will also be in attendance, as will Joe Hendry.
Rumours have also now circulated that President Trump may also be attending, given that the event will be taking place at the Capital One Arena in Washington D.C.
Though this is unconfirmed, President Trump is known to be a sports fan, particularly of golf through his ownership of multiple courses across the world.
