For years John Cena was the face of the WWE, but nowadays it’s Roman Reigns who’s the top dog in the company. Roman Reigns has come a long way over the last few years and he’s earned a lot of praise for The Tribal Chief character. Not only has Reigns revamped his character, but he is about to cross 1,000 days as champion which is a feat that hasn’t been accomplished in WWE in quite some time.
During a recent appearance on Busted Open Radio, John Cena talked about Roman Reigns leveling up over the last few years and he said that he thinks Roman should be in the conversation when it comes to the greatest of all time.
“My personal number one, I think Roman Reigns has to be considered strongly [as the greatest of all time.] What he’s done with the championship, what he’s done as essentially a selective performer, he’s redefined how you do it. Not only that, the reason I really rest a lot of accolades on Roman’s shoulders, and I’ve told this to him personally, [is] his ability to pass energy to more than himself.”
“The difference between him and Ric is that Ric was always there and that’s brilliant. I love that Roman did it his own way by crafting his own personality, he did it his own way by redefining what it means to be at the tip of the sphere. He is there selectively, he has made himself exclusive and in doing so, he’s brought like eight people with them. He’s allowed the whole Bloodline to get over.”
