• Roman Reigns is contemplating his post-wrestling career and hasn’t ruled out stepping into podcasting or commentary.
During an interview with Sports Illustrated, Reigns floated the idea of teaming up with Paul Heyman to analyze wrestling for a live audience or podcast, noting that fans would likely pay to hear their insights:
“People would probably pay a lot of money just to hear me and Paul talk about wrestling or watch it live and give our take. Just watching as fans.”
Reigns expressed interest in a less demanding job, comparing the concept to the Manning brothers’ popular ManningCast.
He highlighted the appeal of earning money simply by watching and discussing wrestling. However, he also shared a relaxed vision of retirement, humorously suggesting that if he disappears from the spotlight, fans should assume he’s fishing on a boat.
