WWE Rumor Roundup: 15th June, 2021

#2 WWE legend John Cena praises Roman Reigns

Former WWE champion John Cena recently spoke to Chris Van Vliet. The Champ talked about his rumored SummerSlam opponent Roman Reigns and how he feels Reigns has developed his character in the Thunderdome era.

Alberto Del Rio returning to WWE?

John Cena said the lack of a live audience has allowed Reigns to mold his character. If there was a live crowd they might not have been as invested in what Reigns was saying as they would be busy booing or cheering him:

''They just want to boo him or cheer him or whatever. Without that, especially developing your character and trying to get the message across, like trying to hand someone your business card. I think Roman has absolutely needed this time and in it he has developed his personality and found out who he is. Now when he goes back to live audiences, they aren't confused,'' said Cena

John Cena also hinted at a WWE return during the interview. The 16-time WWE world champion said it had been too long since he wore jorts - his signature in-ring gear.
