The year 2025 will be an emotional journey for professional wrestling fans, since the legend of WWE John Cena is not the only fighter who will hang his boots. Homicide has also decided to lower the curtain of his career at the ring this year.
Latin terror may not have reached WWE, but it has had a career that covers more than three decades. He has fought for some great promotions such as NWA, TNA Wrestling and Ring of Honor, to name a few, and accumulated all the important championships that were to win.
The 47-year-old veteran also made a unique appearance in All Elite Wrestling in 2021. He came to the aid of Eddie Kingston and Jon Moxley against Suzuki-Gun.
In an interview with Counted OutHomicide officially confirmed that this would be his last year as an active fighter in the ring. He said he was planning to finish his career before March.
“Yes, absolutely yes. This is my last year. I am thinking before March, but rest, you never know what can happen. I promise that this will be my last year,” Homicide said. (55:46 – 56:00)
Homicide spoke about his conversation with Eddie Kingston, reflecting on some of the greatest opponents he has faced in his career worthy of the Hall of Fame.
“I never thought about my wildest dreams that I would be fighting so long. I traveled around the world until Eddie Kingston told me, 'Do you know that you've been fighting for 30 years? Do you know what you did? The Dudley Boyz, I fought against Kurt Angle, as I did things that people would like to be in my shoes. (17:27 – 18:13)

Homicide said he wants to transition to a full -time producer after he finished competing within the ring.
What's still for John Cena on WWE?
After not winning the Royal Rumble Male fight, the way from John Cena to Wrestlemania 41 now goes through elimination chamber on March 1.
The Cenation leader is the only one who obtained direct entry to the combat of the elimination chamber, something that has been criticized by CM Punk. The rest of the participants were placed in classification fighting to ensure their places.
So far, CM Punk, Drew McIntyre, Logan Paul and Damian Priest have advanced to the elimination chamber. The final participant will be determined next week when Seth Rollins face Finn Balor at WWE RAW.
John Cena has been absent from television since his defeat at the Royal Rumble. Will he win again at WWE Elimination Chamber and secure his place in the stellar event of Wrestlemania 41 as many expect? Only time will say it.
