Roman Reigns says there is ‘no true competition’ to WWE
In Roman Reigns’ opinion, there is no true competition to WWE.
Speaking to Nico Leonard, the former WWE Champion said that while there are other wrestling promotions out there that people can work for, there’s only one place to be at the top of pro wrestling.
“There’s no true competition for us. There’s other promotions, there’s other places to work in pro wrestling. But if you want to be at the top show, if you want to be considered tippy top of the mountain, you have to be at the top of WWE,” he said. “And i’ve done everything you can do there, but you can still continue to dominate the scene. You can still be the number one guy.”
The closest competition to WWE is AEW, who managed to get a foothold in the industry thanks to a television slot on TNT. WWE has frequently countered AEW’s attempts to gain momentum with mixed results. Last year it notably ran against one of AEW’s pay-per-view events, running their Wrestlepalooza show on ESPN Unlimited the same day as AEW All Out.
Roman Reigns is scheduled to face CM Punk for the World Heavyweight title on night two of WrestleMania 42 next weekend.
