When John Cena names someone the ‘Greatest of All Time,’ it’s a moment worthy of applause. Recently, the 16-time World Champion was asked to name his pick for WWE’s ‘GOAT,’ and he chose Roman Reigns over iconic figures like Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, The Rock, and Brock Lesnar.

In an interview on the Club Shay Hay podcast, Cena credited Reigns for the significant growth of WWE’s popularity since 2012, emphasizing the impact on the company’s stock. “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,” said Cena. This is not the first time Cena has recognized Roman Reigns as the greatest; he had previously expressed the same sentiment in an interview with Sportskeeda last year, stating, “In my perspective, I think Roman Reigns is the greatest of all time.”

Following Cena’s latest endorsement of Reigns, Paul Heyman stirred up conversation on social media. Heyman, who has managed Reigns, despite their absence from the ring together since WrestleMania 40, echoed Cena’s sentiment on X, urging fans to respect the Tribal Chief. Heyman posted, “#Facts. @JohnCena gets it right. Acknowledge our #TribalChief @WWERomanReigns, the true, authenticated #GOAT of @WWE,” but later deleted the tweet. However, he shared a screenshot of it on his Instagram stories, where it remained visible.

Heyman’s deletion of the tweet raised some eyebrows, particularly given his recent absence from WWE after being attacked by the new Bloodline, led by Solo Sikoa. Yet, with Reigns now back in the spotlight, it’s expected that Heyman will soon reunite with the ‘GOAT.’

Meanwhile, John Cena has announced his retirement from WWE. After completing the filming of Peacemaker 2 by the end of 2024, Cena plans to embark on a farewell tour with WWE, marking the end of his legendary wrestling career.
