John Cena elects the WWE's Greatest of all time, and it's not him or The Rock!

John Cena recently appeared at the Club Shay Shay Podcast with legendary NFL TE Shannon Sharpe, where he has seemingly settled the 'GOAT of WWE' debate. While several wrestling fans may have distinct choices, the 16-time World Champion sticks to the one name he has formally acknowledged as the greatest ever — The Original Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns. He also mentioned the fact that he had to begin from scratch, but Reigns made his debut with an already dominant faction, The Shield. he also mentioned the WWE/TKO stock numbers to solidify his stance on Reigns, revealing how it has changed because of the Tribal Chief's influence. He picked him over his arch-rival The Rock and placed him at number two.

"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. Roman Reigns would be my greatest of all time. The Rock would be second. Roman’s numbers have been better than Dwayne’s," John Cena said.

Roman Reigns' absence has had the fans rallying for him as the Bloodline 2.0 storyline came into play. The OTC's return to SummerSlam was thunderous as he showed up when no one expected him to appear. Reigns will now be on a warpath to get the sacred Ula Fala back from Solo Sikoa, the self-proclaimed Tribal Chief.

Roman Reigns has returned as a babyface and the fans have been behind him since he lost the Universal Championship title to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania XL. The OTC has had two appearances in SmackDown so far, and it is yet to be seen how the storyline evolves ahead.
