Roman Reigns was recently interviewed by Newsweek. During the interview, Roman was asked about his stance on WWE going to Saudi Arabia for yearly PPV events.
There had been some rumors that Roman told WWE that he didn’t want to go to Saudi Arabia prior to his leukemia announcement. It appears as if he has changed his mind as he will now be facing Shane McMahon at WWE Super Showdown.
Here is what Reigns said when asked about his stance on WWE doing business with Saudi Arabia:
It gets a lot of mixed and negative reactions. The bottom line for me is, if we’re going to help promote change, if we’re going to set out to make an impact than I have to be a part of it. I’m not going to sit on the sideline and talk about how we can get there. I want to be a part of the action. I look at it as being a part of the solution while still respecting cultures, but it’s a big world and I want to experience all of it. So if we can help make a positive impact that’s what we’re here to do. We’re here to put smiles on everyone’s faces. We don’t discriminate, that’s our goal to help and promote positivity and take that to every inch of the world.
