Roman Reigns: Paul Heyman, The Usos & I Are Lapping Everybody In WWE
Can anybody argue with this?
Jul 2, 2021
Roman Reigns has opened up on the ongoing story he, Paul Heyman and Jimmy & Jey Uso are telling on WWE SmackDown.
The Tribal Chief was joined by Heyman last year with Jey Uso linking up with his cousin after acknowledging him as 'The Head Of The Table' in October 2020. It appears Jimmy is also on the same wavelength now too after being in Reigns' corner in recent weeks.
The Universal Champion says his current body of work is what he most wants to be remembered for WWE because he feels the quartet are, without question, the best aspect of WWE television right now.
Having achieved so much prior to this run, Reigns added that he feels Paul Heyman and himself are cementing their legacies as future Hall Of Famers with what they're doing right now.
Speaking to ESPN's Cheap Heat, Reigns said: "I think it goes with the similar and every parallel mindset of trying to be the very best every single week and this is some stuff I’ve said to Jey and Jimmy [Uso] on-screen but it’s a shoot, it’s for real is we’re trying to — this is the only way I wanna be remembered is being the hands down, head and shoulders better than everybody else on the show. Everybody else in the world, they’re all trying to catch up.
"At this point, within a marathon, we’re lapping people because we put so much preparation, so much thought into the detail, the nuance and trying to deliver the most sophisticated, not confusing but very respectful stories as we can but it was something when me and Paul [Heyman] knew we were gonna get together, it was immediate just starting to spitball and we knew it was something that was gonna have to be fleshed out in real time, obviously week-to-week and be put into the situation and know our barriers, know which walls we were gonna have to go over, avoid or just bust right through.
"But we were game planning everything and I think that was the common denominator is that we just wanted to be special because we both, we’re at points — he’d been on an awesome run with Brock [Lesnar] for what? Ten, 12 years, doing everything that they did and then for myself, I already had four main events at WrestleMania, multiple championship reigns and stuff like that so there wasn’t much that I hadn’t already done in this industry.
"So I think for both of us, it was just about developing that cherry on top, really solidifying the legacy and cementing this Hall Of Fame portion of our careers."
