My partner had this vision in out head—then we watched John Cena, it was emotional. I&#x27;m getting goosebumps talking about it. Watching him changed the idea we had. I&#x27;m not sure how it will be—but a lot of it will depend on who we are wrestling,” he said in an interview in Mandaluyong City, Sunday.</p><p>Chaz Mosh said Cena’s <a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/celebrities/2025/12/14/john-cena-officially-retires-from-wwe-by-tapping-out-in-a-match-for-the-first-time-ever-2311"><strong>retirement </strong></a>marked a “huge” moment in wrestling. He also lauded Cena for his influence both in and out of the ring.</p><p>“He was such an impact on the business. He carried it for so long. I only had two interactions with John Cena. They were both amazing,” he said.</p><p>“We made a return in 2016, haven&#x27;t been there in 15 years—I walked back into the room where we eat lunch. I just wanted to walk in, see someone I knew, and sit down. John Cena saw us, he called is and he greeted us before anyone did. The Headbangers previously announced they will retire from active in-ring competition in July,” he added.</p><div><br/></div><div class="twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered" style="display:flex;max-width:560px;width:100%;margin-top:10px;margin-bottom:10px"><iframe id="twitter-widget-0" scrolling="no" frameBorder="0" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" title="X Post" src="https://platform.twitter.com/embed/Tweet.html?dnt=false&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=2005132537207853081&amp;lang=en&amp;maxWidth=560px&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com%2F%23%2Fworkspace%2Fmonitoring%3Fitem%3Durn%3Anewsml%3Aod2-workbench-api.abs-cbn.com%3A2025-12-28T11%3A02%3A14.796631%3A0d0f64e3-bfce-4bc4-a96d-f3b498109a04%26action%3Dedit&amp;sessionId=59cf0aa8cc4d5871adf1881079c07908f859f35c&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px" style="position:static;visibility:visible;width:560px;height:316px;display:block;flex-grow:1" data-tweet-id="2005132537207853081"></iframe></div><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charSet="utf-8"></script><div><br/></div><p>The duo announced that their final match is set for July 2026, marking the closing chapter of their long-running partnership.</p><p>Chaz Mosh said the decision came after a wake-up call in the ring nearly a year ago.</p><p>“About 6-7 months I landed funny. I didn&#x27;t get hurt but i thought what an I doing. I feel I am slowing down in the ring. I don&#x27;t want to be in the ring and not being able to perform my best. Those days might be a little bit gone,” Chaz Mosh recalled.</p><p>“It is something we spoke about a couple of years. But when I got dropped funny—I called him and said it is time.

Little funny stories you would never know about behind the scenes, Cheesecake on top of the chilling fan,” he explained. “I did not use everything. I wrote everything. I believe it is something wrestling and non wrestling fans can enjoy.”</p><p>Chaz Mosh is in the Philippines to visit the family of his girlfriend, former &quot;Click&quot; cast member Dyan Delfin.</p>
