A WWE star has responded to being compared to Roman Reigns after a familiar looking moment at Elimination Chamber.
During the women’s Chamber match, Raquel Rodriguez stacked and pinned Asuka and Kiana James to eliminate them simultaneously.
Many people compared this to when Roman Reigns stacked and pinned Daniel Bryan and Edge to win the WrestleMania 37 main event in 2021.
On the official WWE Raw Recap show tonight, Rodriguez responded to that comparison, saying:
“Look at the power the man has. Look at the position that man is in. You see what a double pin can do for someone? I am on my rise right now.
“No-one is getting in front of the Big Sexy train, that’s for sure. Because if you do, you’re gonna get run over.”

Regarding her rise in WWE in general, when asked if there was one particular moment she could pinpoint that kicked it off, she replied:
“I can’t pinpoint a significant moment. There’s not one moment that springs to my memory that’s like, ‘Oh that was the time I knew I had to change.’
“It’s really been a progression over the past year. Coming back from my illness, not feeling very confident.
“But every week, I get an opportunity to show everyone why I belong on this roster, why I belong on Monday Night Raw, why I am Big Sexy Raquel Rodriguez.
“And every week, someone else has something great to say about me. And I’m just like, well, it’s about time everybody realizes this is what I’ve been showing and proving to you guys the entire time – I just needed my moment and my opportunity, and now I’m just taking my moments and my opportunity.”
