There was an awkward pause on the pod when Graves asked Roman to name some fresh faces who have been impressing him in 2020. One could've heard tumbleweed rolling as the 'Big Dog' went radio silent. After a gap that felt like one Tony Hawk couldn't ollie over, Reigns burned the current roster.

"When they're really doing their jobs, then I won't have to do mine anymore".

Wow. Roman said that's something John Cena once said to him, both on screen and behind the curtain. It took a while for Reigns to understand what JC was talking about, but now he gets it. The only ones Roman thinks are killing it currently are those who were already doing so pre-COVID.

Eventually, he named Seth Rollins, Bray Wyatt, Drew McIntyre, Randy Orton and Keith Lee as people who have impressed him. However, those are the only ones "showing some glimmers". Reigns doesn't think WWE would've needed him back had others been stepping up.
