John Cena has high praise for the Original Tribal Chief Roman Reigns.
WWE Superstar John Cena was a recent guest on Club Shay Shay. When asked who the greatest of all time is in professional wrestling, Cena said it was none other than Roman Reigns.
“It’s amazing I’m saying a still active talent with years in front of him is the greatest of all time. But he’s been in it since 2012, I had to work my way up,” John Cena said. “I started on the bench and then got onto the Saturday program, and then just lost every match. He came in with The Shield in a really high-level spot and never wavered.
“Even when the fans didn’t like him, he was still in a main event spot. He’s been in a main event lens for over a decade now. And he’s brought through his clock, and you could say whatever forces helped it, but in 2012 we were the stock was trading at 11 bucks, WWE or TKO stocks now at 117, that’s on his shoulders.
“There isn’t a better indication of, and I know it’s a team effort and nobody does it alone, but that, to me, that’s some serious shit. And for me, I got to give respect where respect is due. And Joe is smart, passionate about the business, a multi-generational athlete has respect for his family has respect for the locker room has respect for the business. He’s just a very, very smart performer and somebody I respect. He would be my greatest of all time.”
