Roman Reigns has been the top star in WWE for some time, and he’s been the man to beat on Friday Night SmackDown ever since he won the Universal Championship last year. Reigns has been very outspoken, and he recently made headlines when he explained why he doesn’t consider AEW to be competition for WWE.
MJF recently discussed Roman’s comments on Rasslin’ with Brandon Walker, and he referenced the head to head battle between AEW Rampage and Friday Night SmackDown last week.
“Roman Reigns lost in the key demographic to Ruby Soho, and Ruby Soho sucks so I don’t know what to tell you. Don’t get me wrong, that’s not me shitting on Roman Reigns. I think Roman Reigns is a hell of a performer, he really is. I think he’s absolutely incredible. Am I better than him on the mic and in the ring? Sure, but I’m not gonna go out of my way and talk shit about him because I respect him.”
MJF went on to say that he has respect for Roman Reigns, and that he would love to work with him someday in the future.
“I respect what he does. I respect the hard work that goes into putting out that product that is WWE. Again, someday I might work there. I’m also sure if he sees this, he’ll pretend he doesn’t know who I am because that’s what they do over there. When in reality I know that they’re all watching our stuff. Again, I cannot stress this enough, a huge fan of Roman Reigns. I think he’s great. Would love to work with him one day.”
