John Cena Says He’s Looking Forward to Facing Roman Reigns

While speaking to Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated, John Cena was asked about Roman Reigns and possibly having a match against him in the future. Cena responded with the following:

“Roman is in the trenches every night and he’s performing at an elite level with a champion caliber attitude. His performance and the response that he gets from certain audiences is indicative of an elite-level performer. He’s doing what I did in 2006, 2007, and 2008. He has all the justification in the world in saying it’s his yard. I’ve made a career of shutting the mouths of people who’ve made that claim that WWE was their yard. I very, very much look forward to the day we put that to the test.”
