"If Vince goes down, you don't wanna be in bed with him" - Former WWE writer believes Roman Reigns could make career-changing decision (Exclusive)

Vince Russo recently noted that Roman Reigns could be affected by the allegations against Vince McMahon on an episode of Writing with Russo.

The former WWE writer noted that many stars could now be looking to distance themselves from McMahon following the investigation.

He even dropped names like Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns into the conversation while explaining that if McMahon goes down, then many stars may not want to be connected to him:

"I guarantee you too with Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns, bro, I'm just telling you man, if Vince goes down, you don't want to be in bed with him at this point in time (...) I think there is going to be a distancing period from Vince McMahon bro, I really believe that," said Russo. [6:02-6:34]

Roman Reigns and Vince McMahon have been close friends for several years

Vince McMahon has been one of the driving forces behind Reigns' push in the company in recent years, and it's well-known that they are close friends behind the scenes.

McMahon recently stepped back from his responsibilities as the Chairman and CEO of the company a few weeks ago. Reigns, on the other hand, has missed Hell in a Cell and Money in the Bank due to his new schedule. The Tribal Chief is also reportedly set to skip Extreme Rules later this year.
