WATCH: When John Cena and Roman Reigns Got Into a Heated Verbal Altercation on WWE Raw

Roman Reigns has been the top guy at WWE for a long time now. His excellent in-ring ability capped with a solid promo ability makes him a fan favorite. But this wasn’t always the case as ‘The Big Dog’ wasn’t as fluid with delivering promos as he is now. A promo segment with John Cena tells us all we need to know.

The feud between Roman Reigns and John Cena in 2017 was exquisite. Though it had the type of build fans would expect for a WrestleMania main event, WWE chose the ‘No Mercy’ pay-per-view for the match. This led to one of the best promo segments in WWE history. Both superstars took personal shots at each other and declared that the other was not worthy of being where he is.

Reigns claimed Cena buried as much young talent as he could in order to stay on top. He literally said,

“I’m the one guy in WWE that John Cena can’t see,” while doing the hand taunt of Cena. After a little trash talk, Cena said this iconic line. “Congratulations. It took you five years to get a halfway decent promo, but now I’m about to shrink you down to size.”
