John Cena Speaks On Roman Reigns’ Greatest Status

Roman Reigns has been WWE World Champion for 1094 days and counting. As of now, Reigns has broken so many records that fans are wondering if he has any another milestone to reach.

The chart topper has faced John Cena twice, in 2017 and 2021 respectively. Even though Cena has lost to Reigns twice, he has nothing but the utmost respect for Reigns.

While speaking on WWE After The Bell, John Cena had a lot of good things to say about Roman Reigns and reiterated the fact that he considers Reigns to be the greatest of all time in professional wrestling.

“He’s a sponge, and he’s athletic, super intelligent, and a fan of this, and I mean all of this. Most importantly, a fan of psychology.

I say the WWE Universe is the biggest superstar we have. Roman navigated those waters without them.

Here’s the thing with Roman, I don’t think Roman is Roman if he doesn’t have a time to work in front of no crowd.

The crowd is so against the fact that the company believed in Roman Reigns…I set the precedent of ‘Company guy, see ya.’ Everyone has a tough hill to climb once they become pushed.

There is a giant ray behind the curtain, we all know that too. ‘We have to be careful how this happens because we don’t want this to happen

Me watching it, it was very difficult for some performers to work to that crowd, I definitely would have been that person.

Roman leaned into everything they gave him and really made it cinematic and so nuanced and so incredible.

He got the viewer to (pay attention), without the energy of the audience. I don’t have that tool. I don’t know how I would be able to do that because I’ve never done it.

The Firefly Fun House was it. It’s a very interesting environment when you don’t have an audience.”

John Cena will face Sikoa at Crown Jewel on November 4. We’ll have to wait and see if he has another confrontation with Roman Reigns in the future.
