Sean Waltman shared his feelings about Reigns on his X-Pac 1,2,360 podcast.
"I tuned in last night probably seconds after he mentioned Leukemia so I was like 'What's going on here?' And the people are like, 'Thank you, Roman!' and I'm like, 'What are they doing?'…They are usually sh-tting all over him. 'What's going on here?' …So I had heard most of the promo without knowing the beginning part of the Leukemia thing. And when you know somebody especially, not just when you know them but when they are a part of your fraternity. Even if you have an age gap or generation gap, whatever. These people are still our brothers and sisters and we love each other. And especially for me, the family, the Anoa'i family have been very good to me."
Rikishi appeared on the podcast a few weeks back, and Waltman says the fact that he knows the entire Anoa'i family makes this even more difficult to process.
"Rikishi was in here and we were talking about that with him when he was in here. I know that whole family. It was like someone kicked me in the balls you know, so you sit there and think about what this guy is going through. His wife and his daughter and all that and what they're going through. And to go out there and tell everyone what's going on and keep your head held high and not breaking down. Not that there's anything wrong with breaking down and shedding a tear out there cause that's fine too. But just to be able to go out there and keep it together and tell everyone what you have, to tell them like that. G--damn, that has got to be hard."
