For me anything that can be viably played with and utilize own large  pool, can be viably played as a juggernaut, so  can be imo played as juggernaut too, from the practical point of view. So much for roles.

Regarding the question if he actually is a juggernaut, that is more restricted to his dominant primary and secondary attributes. He is theoretically claimed to be primarily a fighter and secondarily a tank. As a tank, he can be hardly considered a warden, so vanguard be it. Now as a fighter, he can be either a juggernaut or a diver. Hardly a diver, as those possess a reliable gap-closer to dive enemy back-line. His backline dive'd take a bit longer with just one and one  (the  not counted in, as it is rather a result/follow-up of the dive, than its catalyst). Thus the tankiness of the diver wouldn't be efficient enough. Hence he's currently officially declared a juggernaut. However, for now it seems that this role wasn't planned to remain as his attribute within future classification.

As or  are very synergic with, I could also imagine him to be viably played as bruiser or offtank, but those are just my personal/unofficial classifications.
