Maybe you love him, maybe you hate him, but you have to admit that he's the most successful WWE superstar of this wrestling era!
On November 19, 2012, Beijing time, three young people who showed their prominence: Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose, and Seth Rollins in the "Survival of the Strong" competition attracted the attention of a large number of wrestling fans. The trio, dressed in black body armor and not speaking of martial arts, humiliated Ryback with more deception and helped CM Punk defend his WWE title.
After that, the three men, who called themselves "The Shield", gradually established their position in the WWE Alliance. After disbanding on June 2, 2014, each member of the Holy Shield successfully flew solo, and each of them achieved great success in succession, creating their own brilliant moments.
The biggest, in particular, Roman Raines, exceeded our previous expectations for him. Under the hand-pick of Old Mai, Roman's wrestling career was booming, and within three years, he won "Battle Royale", advanced to the main game of "Wrestling Mania", and won the first WWE title.
As far as Roman's current wrestling career is concerned, in fact, the biggest impact on him is the october 2018 incident, when he was diagnosed with leukemia for the second time, and with the dangerous nature of recurrence, he was forced to give up the title. Fortunately, he not only returned to the ring after 5 months, but also survived an extremely frightening epidemic.
In this issue, we will take stock of an interesting event related to Roman in each of the eight years since the establishment of the Holy Shield. See what kind of funny big dog Roman really is.
9. Roman has his own ring name (2012)
Roman Raines, real name: Leati Joseph Anoai, born on May 25, 1985, 35 years old, born in Pensacola, Florida, USA, height 191cm, weight 120 kg.
Roman Raines signed a contract with WWE in 2010, and Roman was later assigned to WWE's development field, Florida Champion Wrestling (FCW), which is now NXT. He made his televised debut on August 19, 2010, using the name Roman Leakee.
Three months before Roman joined the show, Roman took on his current ring name: Roman Reigns. Roman revealed in a 2017 Chris Jericho podcast: Corey Graves made excellent suggestions when he changed his name.
Soon after WWE renamed the FCW to NXT in August 2012, Roman changed his name to appear in NXT for the first time as Romain Raines, defeating CJ Parker, Chase Donovan and Gavin Reid.
He then joined forces with two of his teammates to form the Holy Shield.
8. Romance and Randy disagree (2013)
Media personality Bryan Alvarez wrote in an F4W press release in July 2013 that Roman and Randy Orton had a disagreement in the ring, and the verbal altercation was friction.
Seth Rawlings also reportedly had disagreements with Roman at the same time. Leaving aside the plot, in the real working environment, there are collisions between colleagues, and small fights are indeed normal.
7) The Undertaker wants Roman to end his "wrestling mania winning streak"
As we said yesterday, Brock Lesnar ended the Funeral Mania's wrestling streak on Wrestling Mania 30, but should Big Boo be replaced by Roman Raines?
It is worth mentioning that the brothers of Destruction agreed that the person who defeated the funeral at that time would be Roman Raines.
In 2014, WWE originally planned to have Dabu and People's Champion Dwayne Johnson play a match, and the funeralists' opponent would inevitably be Roman Raines. But during the period, Lao Mai changed his mind, or it was the big cloth to end the myth of the mourners.
6. Bret Hart greatly appreciates Roman (2015)
Roman Raines has always called Brett Hart his idol, and Brett is also a wrestler that Roman has loved since childhood.
In Wrestling Mania 31, Big Dog is expected to beat Brock Lesner in the race to win the WWE title, but surprisingly, the good brother of the past, Seth, cut his foot halfway, redeemed contract packs, and took the title.
In 2017, Roman revealed in a podcast by Yang Erjie, when he met Brett Hart after the performance, and after the group photo, Brett praised Roman's game as a "classic moment".
5) Romain should not face HHH (Triple H) (2016)
Like Wrestling Mania 30, Dwayne Johnson would have gone to HHH, but because Johnson's schedule could not be scheduled, there was not enough time to train and perform. So Johnson staged a 6-second KO classic clip of Erick Rowan. Roman replaced his cousin and faced king sledgehammer HHH.
4, old Mai does not like Roman to wear white shoes (2017)
As the president of WWE, Lao Mai owns nearly half of the equity of WWE, and all this must be decided by Lao Mai alone.
In the 2017 "Fast Drive" contest between Roman and Black Sheep, Roman had a white logo on his chest and an injury. Roman thought to himself, the upper body is white, the lower body is also white, so he plans to wear a pair of white shoes. Later, Roman stated in an interview that Old Mai did not like him to wear white shoes.
So, on the day of the "Fast Track" competition, instead of the Roman leather boots, it was not white shoes, but a pair of black sneakers on a white background...
3. The Plot of Roman and Daniel (2018)
In 2015, Roman and Egg Girl had a very exciting match. Unfortunately, due to injury, the egg girl soon withdrew from the ring, and after that, the feud between the two could not be continued.
In 2018, Roman said in an interview that he was looking forward to starting the plot with Daniel again. Daniel finally returned to the ring after three years of absence, but he returned to the SmackDown brand, while Roman was in the RAW brand.
After learning that Egg Girl is back in the ring, Roman once again shows that he wants to have a 1V1 with Egg Girl in "Wrestling Mania 35". However, the WWE hierarchy once again shatters Roman's illusions, tying Romain and Drew together, and Eggbuy and Coffey.
2) Roman doesn't like to play in Hell's Cage (2019)
In an interview with Forbes, Roman admitted that he was not optimistic about the 2019 Hell Cage competition.
To say that the 2019 "Hell Cage" competition, Seth's 11 war trampling, everyone must have remembered it, the evil god will "hang" full, and the blood bar is infinite...
After this match, it caused countless controversies among wrestling fans. Although Roman is also not optimistic about this event, he still stressed that the content and quality of the competition may be slightly lacking, but the players are really doing their best to perform. I don't like it, but I respect it.
1. Roman becomes tribal leader (2020)
In the RAW program on the second day of Roman's return, WWE officially announced that Black Sheep, Roman and Evil God will have a triple threat game in the "Blood Debt And Blood Payment" competition! Roman also lived up to expectations and won the global championship in one fell swoop.
After the reversal, he was promoted to the position of tribal leader. From this, it can be seen that in the eight years since Roman joined the Holy Shield Legion, he has been marching all the way, and whoever loves him cannot resist the deterrent power of Brother Dog!
Happy 8th Anniversary of Holy Shield!
