Reigns’ assertion resonates deeply, considering his dominance as WWE’s premier superstar for nearly four years.
Since his heel turn at SummerSlam 2020 and subsequent alignment with Paul Heyman, Reigns has been unstoppable, holding the Universal title since Payback 2020 and vanquishing the very best in the business.
In a revealing interview with Uproxx Sports, Heyman offered insights into Reigns’ unparalleled reign, emphasizing their shared pursuit of greatness and innovation within the industry.
“It’s an uncompromising pursuit of relevancy and greatness together at the same time, at all costs,”
Heyman expressed.
“We’re going to propel this industry into the future and innovate and do things that have never been done before while respecting the past.”
As speculation mounts over Reigns’ future, his declaration raises the stakes ahead of his clash with Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania.
Should Reigns falter, his stark ultimatum suggests a potential exit from WWE, underscoring the gravity of his current position atop the company hierarchy.
With WrestleMania XL looming large, the WWE Universe braces for a showdown of epic proportions, where the fate of The Tribal Chief’s reign hangs in the balance, poised to redefine WWE for years to come.
