John Cena confirms his retirement match against Gunther will be the main event of the show. Earlier this week, there was a rumor going around that Cena and Gunther were going on first, and would be given a much time as they needed.

I'm not going first tomorrow . We're last going last and I don't know how that rumor started

Cena appeared on ESPN's Pat McAfee Live on Friday and set the record straight. When asked by McAfee if he'll be opening the show Cena squashed the rumor like a bug.

A Year of Pivots

Also during the discussion, Cena spoke about how much creative plans for his retirement tour have been changed throughout the past year.

As much planning that went into plotting out what his final year would look like, it was pivot after pivot after pivot. While some performers wouldn't be happy with the lack of predictability, Cena's practicing gratitude, and appreciates the new scenarios that came about.

I love the fact that there's been so many pivots. AJ, that was a pivot. Brock was a pivot. Post-WrestleMania, all that stuff, pivot. Because of the pivot, I got Randy. I got Punk. I got to work with Logan in a singles match. Because of the pivot, I got Dom. I got AJ. I got Ron Cena. I got Sami Zayn. I got Cody at SummerSlam. Because of pivots, I got all these great moments. Never once was I like, 'But it could've been this.' 'Yo, look what we got!'

Gunther says Cena is the GOAT of sports entertainment but not wrestling, fueling their rivalry heading into tonight. WWE has planned surprises for the historic evening.
