Either Roman’s showing his hand by revealing how much he’s thought about dropping the strap and what it’ll do to his character, almost seems like he wants it bad, or he’s just that good and is totally swerving us

The swerve is coming
Roman's growth as a wrestler and a performer is beyond imagination. If he has this legendary character for 3 more years at this same level, then he definitely will be at the mt. Rushmore. of wrestling. Dude's destined for greatness. MJF is great he just lives as the character. But Roman on the other hand has perfectly blended the art of balance by being both Joe Anoa'i and the tribal chief. MJF and Roman Reigns are the two best things in the wrestling world at the moment.
Love Roman, he’s a big reason why I’m back as a fan.

When it comes to Roman the biggest takeaway for me was about a year or so ago when Brock Lesnar said Roman has the "it" factor and that tells you all you need to know as Brock is the LAST person to hand out compliments. He won't say anything that he doesn't mean. This interview is part kayfabe, but Roman truly believes in himself with unbelievable confidence and much like Brock, he doesn't care if he hurts anybodys feelings. I don't know what's gonna happen tonight, and respect and kudos to Cody, but I can certainly see Roman retaining

From a long term storyline perspective it would be better if Roman retained and then the bloodline turmoil can continue. Roman can say the Uso’s dropped the ball and let the family down. It could lead to an eventual Roman vs Jey which would come full circle as that is what started it all 2-1/2 years ago.

Honestly one of the best interviews, best questions.... DC knows this business well... respect.

I’m guessing Roman doesn’t wanna drop the belts to Cody because he says in the interview he doesn’t think someone who hasn’t been in the company for so long should dethrone him. I guess he’s hinting he retains.

Based on their history, I think Seth Rollins would be the best choice to dethrone Roman Reigns. He betrayed The Shield, cashed in his Money in the Bank contract at the Wrestlemania main event, and always outsmarted Reigns in their mind games. Cody has the potential to become a future champion, but from a storyline perspective, it would make more sense for Seth to take down Reigns.
