John Cena said: “In a very legitimate sense, my biggest hangup with Roman Reigns as a frontrunner of the WWE is the fact that he seems to lack with his ability to communicate with the audience. I knows Roman Reigns has it in him because he has a presence that’s undeniable but nobody has been able to bring it out of him yet.”
Cena praised Roman Reigns’ promo during the go home Raw to No Mercy in San Jose and said it gave him goosebumps. He also confirmed that he knew for a fact the promo came from Roman Reigns.
Cena Said: “Because even though Roman and I shake hands and play nice behind the curtain there’s an edge between the two of us of ‘bro I’m gonna hold onto this as long as I possibly can because I feel you’re not even close to my league.’ And him, as a younger talent says ‘who the hell is this guy and when’s he going home?'”
Cana said: “I am not ready to give up his spot until he knows Roman Reigns is ready to take it.”
