John Cena Surprises Fans by Using Code Red During Retirement Tour

John Cena's retirement tour has featured numerous memorable moments, including a surprising return of the Code Red move, which left its creator, Amazing Red, astonished. Cena executed the move during his Undisputed WWE Championship Street Fight against Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam 2025 and again against Logan Paul at Clash in Paris.

Amazing Red shared his thoughts on Cena's use of the move, noting that the fan reactions were overwhelming and left him nearly speechless. He humorously remarked that Cena has effectively made the move his own and joked about needing to ask for permission to use it.

While the Code Red has been performed by various wrestlers over the years, including Sting, Cena's execution brought unprecedented attention to the move. Amazing Red recalled receiving a flood of messages after Cena's performance, highlighting the significance of the moment for both him and the wrestling community.
