Top Star Argues WWE’s Investment In Roman Reigns Has Only Just Started Paying Off

WWE

Cody Rhodes has shared his honest thoughts on Roman Reigns, ahead of his WrestleMania 39 match against the Tribal Chief.

In the main event of the two-night event, Rhodes will challenge for Reigns’ WWE Undisputed Universal Championship.

Speaking with WrestleJoy, Rhodes addressed his most recent confrontation with Roman Reigns on the March 20 edition of Raw, during which Reigns addressed Rhodes’ AEW run, and how the former EVP ‘couldn’t get over.’

Believing that Roman Reigns is seen as a lifelong investment to WWE, Rhodes said:

“With all of that said, it’s ironic coming from Roman, who is a lifelong investment by WWE. That investment is absolutely paying off. But it just started paying off.

“I’ve talked about him with the greatest of reverence and respect, because I know how absolutely dang special he is in our world.

“But if you’re gonna get low brow with his comments like that, just remember that if me meeting adversity and changing my ways, going out and betting on myself, is that less valuable than meeting adversity and just pretending it doesn’t exist?

“Either way, it really shouldn’t matter because you’re absolutely, as champion proving to everyone that you are everything you say you are as champion.

“I feel I’m everything I say I am as the American Nightmare. So it is up to the fans to decide the verdict on these trials, on my story, and the journey.

“I’ve had things I’ve done that weren’t great, but I do all of them as well as the things I’ve done that were absolutely special and helped create magic.”
