Tommy Dreamer recently spoke to Busted Open Radio to promote his upcoming House of Hardcore shows in New York this weekend and more. During the interview he explained why he’s such a huge supporter of current WWE Champion Roman Reigns. You can listen to the clip here and also read a quote below.
“I’m a huge Roman Reigns supporter and I’ll tell you why. I watched – I was there live in Florida on a house show – him and Sheamus, and I cannot praise Sheamus enough for being a great heel. Everyone’s talking about, ‘Oh, Roman Reigns and the Wyatts pairing together’, but you got to have great heels to actually work with that. Sheamus, Del Rio, and Rusev – who I’m big fans of, the bad guys. And, you think about it, the people are going to be on their feet for all of those matches.
For the haters, to see AJ Styles win, and again, we work for the reactions and we work for people talking about it the next day… I watched [Reigns] and Sheamus work about 25 minutes on a Sunday show and they had a WrestleMania match, and the people were so into it. Right then and there, I was like, ‘That guy is pure money’. I saw it live, and I just watched it and I totally saw why he’s the man and he should be the man. But, guess what? We got Seth Rollins eventually going to come back, Randy Orton – you think of all these people who’re going to try to knock ‘the man’ off his perch. I wish he went out there and talked like Mike Tyson, who couldn’t really cut a strong promo because of the way he actually spoke. You’d be like, ‘Oh, I could kick that man’s butt. Listen to how he talks’, but yet Mike Tyson was the baddest man on the planet. If they kind of went that way with Roman Reigns – because when you think about it, we loved to hate Mike Tyson and then we just loved Mike Tyson. It’s an interesting time for the Roman Reigns lovers and haters. I’m a Roman Reigns lover.”
