John Cena bestows Roman Reigns as the greatest WWE superstar of all time
Many legends have acknowledged John Cena as the greatest superstar of all time. However, it is interesting to know who Cena himself thinks is the best superstar in WWE history. Recently, the former World Champion revealed that he feels Roman Reigns is the WWE GOAT.
Speaking on Club Shay Shay, the 16-time World Champion stated that he believes The Tribal Chief is the prime example of greatness. He said that the Head of the Table has put work into himself to get where he is, and he absolutely deserves it. Mr. Hustle Loyalty Respect added that the WWE stock is at its highest today due to the Needle Mover’s impact.
In 2012, the stock was traded at $11. WWE/TKO stock is now at $117. That’s on his shoulders, there isn’t a better indication. Roman Reigns would be my greatest of all time. The Rock would be second. Roman’s numbers have been better than Dwayne’s.John Cena via Club Shay Shay
After such high statements by Cena, it is going to be interesting to see what’s next for Reigns amid his Bloodline Civil War. As for the Hollywood star, there is a long list of WWE stars who will have their eyes on him in 2025.
