  • No one talks smack better than a professional wrestler. It’s really just part of the gig.

    WWE Superstar Roman Reigns may in fact be king of banter. The former college football player out of Georgia Tech was an All-ACC defensive lineman. Equipped with a solid knowledge of the gridiron, Reigns recently selected his fantasy football team made up entirely of WWE all-stars.

    Reigns is set to square off against Randy Orton at SummerSlam in Los Angeles on Sunday, so to add a little fuel to the fire, Reigns selected Orton as his team’s water boy. “Randy Orton, he’s my water boy. He gets the towels,” Reigns said.

    But Reigns was not done dishing out the insults with just Orton. He also went after his former Shield teammate Seth Rollins, who recently turned heel (basically turning heel is like going to the dark side in professional wrestling terms) and betrayed both Reigns and his former best buddy Dean Ambrose. By omitting Rollins from his team, Reigns was clearly making a statement, “You can’t trust him. He’d probably send our game plan to the other team.”

    Here’s the rest of Team Reigns WWE fantasy football squad:

    Left Tackle: Big Show
    Right Tackle: Tensai
    Guards: Mark Henry and Bray Wyatt
    Center: John Cena
    Tight End: Wade Barrett
    Running Back: Dolph Ziggler
    Full Back: Ryback
    Wide receivers: Kofi Kingston and Fandango
    Quarterback: Cesaro
    Nose Tackles: Big E Langston and Rusev
    Defensive Linemen: Luke Harper and Erick Rowan
    Defensive Ends: Titus O’Neil and Curtis Axel
    Linebackers: Himself and The Usos
    Safeties: Xavier Woods and Chris Jericho
    Cornerbacks: Tyson Kidd and Dean Ambrose

    As for the team owner, of course it has to be Vince McMahon, “He’s like the Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones. That type. They’ll shoot the skybox more than the field.”
