Roman Reigns announced several weeks ago on RAW that his leukemia had returned and he would be taking some time off to focus on his health and recovery.
John Cena was recently interviewed by Chris Van Vliet. This was in order to promote his new movie, Bumblebee. During the interview, Cena revealed what he texted to Roman after his announcement.
Here is what he said (quotes below via Wrestling INC):
“I texted him the day of the announcement, just letting him know that he is in really good hands. He is part of a very exclusive fraternity. We all love him for what he has done. We all respect the fact that he is taking care of his health, which is first and foremost.
And I told him if he needs anything, he knows where to find me.
And I know Joe, I know Joe is a tough s.o.b. I don’t ever expect him to say, ‘Hey man, I need this.’ I don’t ever expect to get that text, but if I ever do, I think we have a mutual understanding that it is as good as done.”
Pretty cool to hear.
On a related note, here is when he could be seeing the TV return of Roman Reigns.
