Get ready for a wrestling showdown that’s heating up faster than a Thanksgiving turkey in the oven! John Cena’s ‘Last Time Is Now Tournament’ is reaching its boiling point as the semifinals unfold during the November 28 episode of WWE SmackDown. But here’s where it gets controversial: with Cena’s final match looming on December 13 at Saturday Night’s Main Event, fans are fiercely debating who deserves to face the legend in his last stand. Could it be for the IC Title? Only time will tell—and this is the part most people miss: the road to the finals has been anything but predictable.
The action-packed episode, pretaped at the Bell Arena in Denver, Colorado, kicked off with a bang as Jey Uso and Rusev clashed in a match that spilled over into a commercial break. In a thrilling finish, Jey Uso secured the win with a jaw-dropping Uso Splash, eliminating The Bulgarian Brute from the tournament. But the drama didn’t stop there. LA Knight was originally slated to face Sheamus, but in a shocking twist, The Celtic Warrior was sidelined, and The Miz stepped in to take his place. Despite Miz’s cunning tactics—including a questionable lotto ball maneuver with Nick Aldis—LA Knight emerged victorious, advancing to the next round. Is this a sign of Knight’s momentum, or just a stroke of luck?
