Both Roman Reigns and John Cena are two of the greatest WWE stars, but the 16-time World Champion thinks that Reigns is the WWE GOAT. A few days ago, Cena commented on the debate and said that Reigns deserves to be called the “Greatest of all time” because he has grown the business of the company over the last 10 years.
Reigns admitted him being the GOAT
“The Original Tribal Chief” recently appeared at Bloomberg’s New York Power Players event, where he admitted that he is the greatest of all time WWE has ever had. “The numbers don’t lie. I wish I could say, ‘I’m Taylor Swift out there,’ but we have a great team.” He added that he has a wiseman (Paul Heyman). Reigns also acknowledged that the business has been good, and it’s one of those weird situations where he would be like, “Paul, brag about me.”
However, Reigns also said that this is a subjective debate and people will have different views on it and no one can question their choice. The OTC stated that if 60 people think Roman Reigns is the GOAT, there are two people who reject it and call The Undertaker the GOAT. “How can you argue with two people who believe in their soul that the Undertaker is?” he contended.
The former Undisputed champion admitted that this is the weird part of their job, and it is where objective and subjective meet. Reigns also acknowledged that he has seen John Cena climb the ladder in WWE and become a top guy, so he knows what it takes to get to that point and stay in that discussion.
Cena is all praise for Roman Reigns
When Cena stated that Reigns is the GOAT, he gave a logical answer and said, “In 2012 we were and the stock was trading at 11 bucks, WWE or TKO stocks are now at 117, that’s on his shoulder.”

The Cenation leader stated that the numbers speak for themselves and there can be no better indication than this. Cena also praised Roman for not backing down from the top position he started in 2013. He gave his own example and said that when he started in 2002, things were not easy for him and he had to struggle a lot. But he praised Reigns for not coming down from his position right from where he began.
