On the latest episode of Off The Top, Rikishi talked about Roman Reigns once again becoming WWE World Heavyweight Champion.  You can check out some highlights below:

Rikishi on Roman Reigns Winning the World Heavyweight Title

“When in doubt, call the tribal chief. You can see it, the whole world feels it. The company feels it. The bank feels it. Anybody that’s involved with WWE, you feel it. There is nothing else that needs to be proven anymore. What Roman says out there, what Roman does, he’s that big pot of gold at the end of that rainbow. You can come on the rainbow, and it’ll just kind of stop there. But when he starts to come through, that needle moves all the way to that pot of gold.”

On Roman Reigns Staying on Top

“The one thing that I pray a lot for is just his health, his mindset, to be able to continue. Because he mentioned it before, a lot of people that come through, they want that spot, but can you handle it? Are you the guy to handle that? To be able to be that face for the company, to be able to be respected by all, to be able to get up in the morning, fly from one city to the next city, to be able to do these early morning shows. Good Morning America, Jimmy Kimmel. All that stuff. It’s not only in the ring, but it’s the responsibility of being that guy.”
