Roman Reigns was a guest on Wednesday’s The Pat McAfee Show, where he was asked a number of questions about his upcoming WWE Universal Championship match with John Cena at SummerSlam. Reigns stayed mostly in character throughout the interview, tearing into the 16-time former world champion for daring to come back and try to challenge his spot as “The Head of the Table.” Reigns kicked things off by saying, “Like anybody at the top of their game I think there’s a very polarizing effect. There’s a lot of good things John Cena is done, obviously Make-a-Wish, a charitable guy. But when it comes to our profession, sports entertainment, he’s levels below me in this game.”
“You see me every Friday night. I have to dull this shit down..
I come out in sweatpants & some J’s. I don’t have to throw on the crazy colors, wear wristbands all over my body..
I don’t have to make myself something that I’m not” ~ @WWERomanReigns #PatMcAfeeShowLIVE pic.twitter.com/V8CtumCWt0
