Earlier today, we learned that Roman Reigns will share the cover of
WWE 2K20 alongside Becky Lynch. To promote the news, ESPN caught up with The Big Dog and asked him about Seth Rollins' recent remarks aimed at Jon Moxley about his decision to leave WWE and the remarks he's made about the company's creative process in various interviews.
As you might expect, Reigns has a different take on things. "He is emotional — of course, he is. Because we bust our ass, man. I love this place. I’ll tell you straight-up: I disagree with what [Dean] Ambrose said about the creative process. I love the guy. I love him to death. He’s my brother. And wrestling ain’t gonna stop that. On a personal level, me and that dude can hang out, have a beer or two and just talk. And even when we don’t talk, that’s just our relationship."
That's a much better response than what Rollins recently said about Moxley trying to take food from his table and after pointing out that it's important for WWE Superstars to take their gripes up directly with Vince McMahon, he went on to make it 100% clear that no matter what happens in the wrestling business, he wants to remain friends with the AEW star.
"I love the dude, man. We came from the bottom and got to where we are now, and he’s a huge part of that. No type of business rivalry or any of that crap will ever affect the personal relationship I have with either Seth or Dean. We’re all gonna do our thing. We’re having fun. I’m enjoying where I’m at. I enjoy being with the WWE. I’ll never be anywhere else."
So, don't go expected a Shield reunion in AEW somewhere down the line! In all seriousness, you have to respect where Reigns is coming from here as he's never going to badmouth the company he works for but, at the same time, he's also not going to bury his good friend Jon Moxley.
