Why is WWE management against John Cena vs Logan Paul at WrestleMania 41? Exploring the reason

WrestleMania 41 will be the last Show of Shows for John Cena. The Leader of the Cenation will kick off his Farewell Tour in 2025, and speculation has already begun surrounding who his final opponent will be. The idea of him facing social media sensation, Logan Paul, had been thrown out there. But, it would seem WWE management is against the idea.

Considering just how big both superstars are, having them go head-to-head, at least on paper, doesn't seem like a bad idea. After all, there is an argument to be made for John Cena, as the greatest wrestler of all time, and as for Logan Paul, he is a social media sensation and very popular with the young crowd. So, the question is, why is WWE management against it? Well, simply put, some of the higher-ups aren't fans of him being Cena's last opponent on The Grandest Stage of Them All.

According to WrestleVotes, WWE management is strongly against the idea of Logan Paul facing John Cena because of the magnanimity of the situation. Seeing as this is the 16-time World Champion's last ride, the company probably wants to find him a more established opponent. This isn't a knock on The Maverick who is an exceptional athlete, but management is probably thinking that Cena's final WrestleMania needs to be nothing short of spectacular.

Of course, at this point, this is nothing more than speculation. There are still a few weeks to go before The Road to WrestleMania kicks off. Many things can change by then, and only time will tell how things eventually unfold.
