When John Cena was asked who his Greatest of All Time (GOAT) is,
his answer was clear and unwavering: Roman Reigns.
Cena’s reasoning for this choice goes beyond the surface,
reflecting a deep admiration for Reigns both as a performer and as a person.
“Joe (Roman) is smart, passionate about work.. has respect for his family, has respect for the locker room.. he would be my Greatest Of All Time,” Cena stated.
This endorsement from Cena is significant, considering his own legendary status in WWE. Cena has shared the ring with some of the biggest names in wrestling history, yet it is Roman Reigns who stands out to him as the epitome of greatness. Cena’s words emphasize Reigns’ intelligence, his passion for the craft, and, most importantly, his respect for those around him.
Reigns’ respect for his family and his colleagues in the locker room is particularly noteworthy. In an industry where egos can often clash, Reigns has earned a reputation for being grounded and respectful, traits that Cena clearly values. This respect is not just about politeness; it’s about understanding the importance of teamwork and camaraderie in an environment that can be intensely competitive.
Cena’s recognition of Reigns’ passion for his work also speaks volumes. Reigns’ dedication to his craft is evident in every match he competes in, every promo he delivers, and every storyline he’s a part of. He brings an intensity and commitment that has not only elevated his own career but has also pushed the entire WWE product to new heights.
In Cena’s eyes, these qualities make Roman Reigns the ultimate GOAT. It’s not just about in-ring ability or championship accolades, although Reigns certainly excels in those areas as well. It’s about the complete package—intelligence, passion, respect for family, and respect for peers. These are the attributes that, in Cena’s view, elevate Reigns above all others, making him the greatest WWE Superstar of all time.
