"Ya'll know how to make your Tribal Chief feel special," Reigns said. "It goes without saying, but it's been too long [since I visited London]. When you get into the groove, and doing these tours, sometimes one can forget how much energy ya'll bring to the arena! I know one thing – Paris [location of next show] has its work cut out, ya'll were awesome tonight."

At one point during the speech, a fan in the audience said something about The Rock, to which Reigns responded with, "Yeah, The Rock can get it too."

Reigns ended his speech by asking the London fans to acknowledge him. They did.

According to fans and journalists at the arena, Roman Reigns received the loudest pops during the London show.
