Roman Reigns

Getty Roman Reigns is reportedly out of WrestleMania 36 due to concerns about performing amidst coronavirus pandemic.

Imagine a world where Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Roman Reigns step into the ring against each other in the WWE.

Appearing on the Heavy Live With Scoop B Show, WWE Hall of Famer, Mark Henry told me that he wants to see that!

“I would pay money to see both,” Henry said.

“Because – you know; I would pay money too; to see Corey Graves in there too. Not only is he a big wrestling fan… like, pro wrestling, the whole stigma doesn’t upset talented wrestlers. People used to do that You know, people like John Stossel; you know, ‘I want to get a rise out of the guys, I want to say that wrestling’s fake and you know, we’re pulling the wool over people’s eyes…’ and you have to be living under a rock for you to walk around here and feel like; you know what? ‘I’m gonna piss Mark Henry off and say, “Hey Mark Henry! Is wrestling fake?” and I’m gonna be like, ‘It’s entertainment. There’s a difference.’ Fake? If I threw a punch at you or if I put my hand out to slap you and I miss you… that’s fake. But in my business, there’s gonna be contact. That’s real. And the better the relationship that you have with people, the more card blanche you give them to lay it in – that’s the term…lay it in. I don’t want people to look at my art as being phony so, it’s gotta be real.”
