Ex-WWE Champion labels Roman Reigns as "the greatest of all time"
Roman Reigns has been the face of WWE for years before a seismic shift in the regime. However, the Original Tribal Chief has garnered respect from his peers, and Jinder Mahal, aka Raj Dhesi, recently dubbed him the greatest of all time.
In 2018, Roman Reigns was in limbo before SummerSlam, having a few less notable matches in the Stamford-based promotion following a loss to Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 34. The Big Dog feuded with The Modern Day Maharaja and moved to a different rivalry before he won the Universal Championship.
In an interview on Muscle Man Malcolm, the interviewer asked Jinder Mahal, aka Raj Dhesi, about his time working with the Original Tribal Chief. The former WWE Champion addressed their past rivalry and labeled the longest-reigning Undisputed WWE Universal Champion as the greatest of all time.
"It was fun. All good. I love Roman. I worked with him several times. I've wrestled him several times on live events, and I think he's the greatest of all time," Dhesi said. [From 01:57 - 02:06]

Roman Reigns could compete on WWE RAW in 2025
A few years ago, Roman Reigns became Friday Night SmackDown's top priority as he became their number-one draft pick for years to come. The Tribal Chief made the blue brand his new home and eventually started The Bloodline saga, with Paul Heyman as his Wiseman, in the Stamford-based promotion.
However, he didn't neglect Monday nights as he and The Bloodline made appearances on the red brand for segments and matches whenever it was needed. With RAW's move to Netflix, the landscape could truly change, and Roman Reigns could join Monday Night RAW in 2025.
In the coming weeks, Solo Sikoa and Roman Reigns will go one-on-one in a Tribal Combat Match for the Ula Fala when RAW debuts on Netflix. The Original Tribal Chief's last singles match on the brand was in 2019 against Dolph Ziggler.
