With Peacemaker being a huge success and possibly having a second season, along with all his other projects and his age, I don’t think it’s gonna be too long before he becomes like the Rock and shuts wrestling out completely. Personally think he has 1, maybe 2 more matches in him. No way he wrestles past Mania 40. Also I’m not gonna count dark matches like those 6 man tags with Rey and Dom

Even though, he’s really starting to make a name for himself outside the WWE and has potential to be a long term player in Hollywood.
I still think that he’ll eventually come back for one last three-to-four month long run to break Ric Flair’s world championship record at some point.
And after that, maybe one or two one-off “Wrestlemania” programs, so I leaning more-so in the six plus territory, but definitely less than ten matches.

On PPV/TV I’d say 5-10.
He’s only 44. Even if he only finds time to do one big match every year or two I still think he’s got more than a couple left. It’s not like Rock in 2005-2010 who was desperate to distance himself from wrestling. Cena seems like he still loves being around when he can. He was scheduled to come in and face Roman at Summerslam and that be it but he went to Vince and requested to work a full house show schedule for the month. If that’s still his mentality I think he’ll find a way to do the odd match even if they become few and far between. I think he already said he’s going to appear at Wrestlemania but of course schedules can change.

Given he isn't wrestling, he stays in great shape and anytime he does wrestle in a single's match it's like once every few years otherwise it's tag matches?
He's at least got 10 on him. Like, Edge has wrestled 14 matches these past few years. Cena can do that and more given his health and the fact that he's an actor and he wouldn't be doing these insane stunts.

Yeah but eventually studios are gonna cut him off and I feel like after a few years he’s gonna be as busy as the Rock.

Yeah it's possible but it also depends on what he's doing and when he can wrestle. Voice acting, he can do that but actual big league stuff like Peacemaker and such he'll just have to find pockets in which he can wrestle. He even said recently that he's not done with WWE so he's still wanting to return. He just has to find those pockets. In theory he can wrestle for another 6 years if he wants to but the timing is the problem.
He won't be doing any of those "house show runs" anymore though, that's for sure. That's just done after Peacemaker blew up.

His run last year he kept things pretty safe so if he keeps that style I could see him still having a good chunk more.
The latest he's said about this year's Wrestlemania:
