Roman Reigns has been part of WWE for over 10 years and still performs at a top level. However, he is currently 39 and there is a limit to how much he can perform inside the squared circle. In light of his future in pro wrestling, The OTC has addressed how long he will continue to compete as an active in-ring competitor.
While speaking to Sports Illustrated, Roman Reigns was asked about his future in professional wrestling and how long he plans on competing inside the squared circle and whether he will retire soon enough. Reigns noted that it depends on the day and how he is feeling. Some days his body feels like a wreck, and he can clearly remember moments like getting hit with a chair by Sheamus in Europe. Years of wrestling all over the world have taken a toll, and sometimes he wakes up sore and wonders if its time to stop for good.
Despite the physical strain, The Head of the Table feels there is still so much to achieve in his career. Reigns noted that he is learning more about himself and how to perform better, control the crowd, and tell new stories. With new family members joining WWE, Reigns is motivated to keep going as long as he can still train and stay in shape.
The former Undisputed WWE Champion joked that if they could find a way to avoid falling and taking bumps, he would focus on making movies. He added that there is something special about being in the ring, feeling the live reaction from the crowd, stating that there is an energy and connection that cant be copied, and thats what keeps him in WWE.
For now, Roman Reigns is focused on his upcoming match at the Survivor Series Premium Live Event, where he will team up with the Original Bloodline and CM Punk to face off against Solo Sikoas Bloodline and Bronson Reed in a WarGames match on November 30th. Its clear Reigns will be competing at the top level for as long as possible and fans simply hope he will only retire when he feels his body cant take it anymore.
