All Elite Wrestling has only been a company for a few short months, but the promotion has already got a lot of people talking.
With AEW’s TV series set to premiere on TNT later this year, some wrestling fans are hoping that the new company will become serious competition for WWE.
Roman Reigns was asked to share his thoughts on AEW during an interview with The Sportster, and he doesn’t think that All Elite Wrestling can be compared to WWE at this point in time.
“I’ll just say this. It’s all so new and it was what it was with Ambrose leaving and popping up over there… Competition? No, there’s no competition. WWE, we know exactly what we’re doing. We have the best talent in the world. There’s no comparing, I say that with firm confidence, all the way from the top to the very bottom. .. We are world class all the way through.”
Reigns added that AEW gives wrestlers another option in terms of where they can work, but he made it clear he doesn’t see the company as competition.
“I’m never against optimism but I think you have foolish thoughts if you really think there’s a comparison or actual competition. Just an option, which isn’t a bad thing.”
