Roman Reigns says his on-screen character is a shoot

“This is some stuff I’ve said to Jey [Uso] and Jimmy [Uso] on screen, but I mean, it’s a shoot. It’s for real. This is the only way I want to be remembered is being the hands down, head and shoulders, better than everybody else on the show, everybody else in the world.

“They’re all trying to catch me. At this point, I feel like within a marathon, we’re lapping people because we put so much preparation, so much thought into the detail, the nuance, and trying to deliver the most sophisticated, not confusing, but very respectful stories as we can.”

Reigns is currently in the middle of a dominating Universal title run. He has beaten the likes of Edge, Daniel Bryan, Kevin Owens among many others. In fact, the Head of the Table is yet to lose a match this year. He is currently the only WWE star to yet have an unbeaten record in 2021.

Each bruise a story to tell, each wound a song of struggle, his greatest desire is to be there to witness it all. His favorite wrestler is Shawn Michaels and he believes that GSP is the greatest to ever step foot inside the octagon. Apart from wrestling, he is also fond of poetry and music.
