Roman Reigns Reveals Current WWE Star He Would Pass The Torch To

Roman Reigns has been one of WWE’s top stars for years now, and he’s holding things down as the Universal Champion on Friday Night SmackDown. Prior to Roman Reigns becoming the top star that position was held by John Cena, and fans can’t help but wonder who might be next in line for the coveted spot.

During an appearance on Cheap Heat with Peter Rosenberg, The Tribal Chief was asked who could end up taking his spot, and while he said that he doesn’t think anyone is on his level, he acknowledged that if he had to pass the torch he would pass it to Drew McIntyre.

“There ain’t nobody, man, and it’s no — I could say my favorite number two, Drew, he’s my favorite number two,” said Roman Reigns. “There’s a bunch of number twos, threes, whatever you want to call them. We can rank them, it really don’t matter. They’re under me. How far under? Who knows? Who really cares at this point? I mean, how strong of a number two do you want to be, and at this point, my favorite is Drew McIntyre.””So in a perfect world, if there was an opportunity to pass the torch to him, he’s the one guy I think that has captivated my attention in that manner.”

“But at the same time, he ain’t there. And it’s only because I’m still here, so solid, within my foothold, my stronghold. The flag is fully planted in, so I can’t even think about it now. But I mean, John [Cena] needed somebody to come in, so he could move on and try new things and take care of his body. I will eventually need that. But there’s just nobody at this point.”
