Roman Reigns is one of the top stars in the world of professional wrestling. Despite this, a WWE Hall of Famer called him “lazy.”
Jake “The Snake” Roberts is one of the latest people to comment on Roman Reigns. The OTC had a meteoric rise in the WWE during the pandemic era. He reigned as the Universal Champion for over 1000 days. However, after losing the title, Reigns has made fewer appearances on WWE TV and is focusing on outside projects.
During an interview with Inside The Ropes, Jake Roberts said he doesn’t like Reigns. He called The OTC lazy. He also said that maybe Reigns needed better writers.
“I just don’t like Roman with what he does out there. I think that he has better stuff in him. I think maybe he got a little fat. He got a little lazy, you know, sometimes when you’re given so much, you quit producing and I feel like either that or he just needed better writers. Maybe that was it. I feel I forget that today that you don’t think about your sh**t. They write everything for you. I couldn’t wrestle today because I’d be going crazy. I want to do my interviews man. I don’t want nobody else writing s**t for me. Nobody knows Jake like Jake.”
