#5 Roman Reigns takes a shot at former WWE Champion CM Punk
While speaking to Complex, WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns talked about a possible future match with AEW's CM Punk. Reigns didn't seem too keen and insinuated that Punk is past his prime:
''That’s not going to elevate me at all. He’s older now. I haven’t really seen a full match. I’ve seen a clip or two. And, to me, a step or two has been lost. Then also he got his whooped in the UFC. I don’t think anybody really believes someone 200 pounds soaking wet with no explosive bone in their body could ever really do anything to me,'' said Roman Reigns
The Head of the Table continued by saying that he's a "legit athlete" and went on to describe the height and weight difference between himself and Punk. He further added that he could take out the entire AEW roster if he wanted:
''So, I mean, when it comes down to it, I’ll throw him and pretty much the rest of that roster out the club no problem. They’re just little brothers, you know?” said Reigns
