2 AEW stars who have taken a shot at Roman Reigns and 3 who have praised him

#3. Former AEW World Champion Chris Jericho has been full of praise for Roman Reigns

AEW star Chris Jericho has had some good things to say about Roman Reigns over the years. Jericho is never afraid of praising his competition, respecting other wrestlers.

During an interview on Keepin It 100 with Konnan, Jericho claimed he has not kept up with what Roman Reigns is doing in the ring. However, he isn't shocked by The Tribal Chief's success.

“I haven’t [kept up] but I’ve been reading about it and it’s no surprise,” Jericho said. “When I was there in 2016 I worked with Roman basically all around the world. I was a heel, he was a babyface. It’s a no brainer there. You know what Roman is? I always said this and he’s doing it now, if you just drop the f**king script and just let him be him, he’s Cool Hand Luke man. He’s like the coolest cat. He’s a great guy. Just let him be him, and that’s what he’s doing now, obviously with a heelish slant, which is great. When he eventually turns babyface he’ll be even bigger than he is now, because he’s just a cool, cool guy. And now they’re letting him do all this stuff and it doesn’t surprise me that he’s killing it, because he’s that type of performer,” Jericho said.

Y2J has also spoken about the possibility of Roman Reigns working in AEW. He believes the current WWE Universal Champion would fit in nicely with the rest of the roster.
