"Put all the eggs in the Reigns basket" - Wrestling veteran compares Roman Reigns' title run to 69-year-old WWE legend (Exclusive)

Former WWE head writer Vince Russo compared Roman Reigns' current title run to that of Hulk Hogan's run during his era.

The Tribal Chief has had one of the most decorated careers in the history of WWE. He won the Universal Championship back at the Payback 2020 premium live event against Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman in a No Holds Barred match.

After defending his title against Drew McIntyre, Kevin Owens, Daniel Bryan, Big E, and many more, he defeated The Beast Incarnate at WrestleMania 38 to win the WWE Championship, thus becoming the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion.

While speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW, Vince Russo spoke about Hulk Hogan's era in the business and compared it to The Tribal Chief's time in the company. He mentioned how WWE has put all its attention on only one guy, The Tribal Chief, and has sidelined all the other competitors.

"Yeah bro, it's funny because you bring up Hogan. Bro, during that era, I swear to God bro, there were probably 10 guys that could upset Hogan on any given night and you'd believe it! Seriously, bro, Piper, Paul Orndorff, Andre, Savage, Mr. Perfect. Jake the Snake Roberts, bro... 10 guys! Bro, there's not one today. Not one you'd believe, like, 'Oh my god, I don't know, bro, if he catches him.' There's not one guy today, and that's all on them... They put all the eggs in the Reigns basket, but you had to have something on the other side, bro," said Russo. (27:00- 28:44)
