Roman Reigns’ incredible reign came to an end at WWE WrestleMania 40 Night Two as Cody Rhodes finished the story. But Triple H says that “The Tribal Chief” is about to embark on a new story of his own.
Speaking at the WWE WrestleMania 40 Night Two post-show press conference, Triple H praised Reigns following the end of his reign. (H/t Jeremy Lambert of Fightful for the transcription)
“There is a lot of banter about ‘greatest of all time.’ You can make arguments for a lot of people in that and there are a lot of metrics you can measure, or opinions, whatever that is. If he is not the, he is one of, absolutely for certain, the greatest of all time,” Triple H said. “To do what he has done, to overcome all the things in his career and the positioning and the stuff he had to get through and hung in there to get where he needed to be to deal with his physical issues and his health issues. To overcome the pandemic, to overcome everything he had to deal with on the way here, and then to go out there and put on a run like nobody has ever put on before. A run of epic, epic moments. Epic storytelling.
“You see that word cinema thrown around a lot. It’s what it really is. It’s changed…there are few guys who have come along in our business where you say during that period of time that they were in it, that they changed the industry. He changed the industry. I mean that in front of the camera. I mean that behind the camera. He’s changed the industry. He’s that good. Can’t say enough good stuff about him.”
Triple H Teases What’s Next For Roman Reigns
Triple H continued by stating that Roman Reigns finished one chapter on Sunday, but he will go on a new story that will blow people’s minds.
“Then, to do what he did [on Sunday] with Cody Rhodes and getting to the end of this chapter. He’s going to go on a whole new story now that is going to blow people’s minds. He’s going to take it to a whole other level. Can’t tell you how much respect I have for Roman Reigns.”
