Paul Heyman comments on the legacy of Roman Reigns.
Before he became The Tribal Chief in the summer of 2020, Roman Reigns had already headlined multiple WrestleMania events and been a multi-time WWE Champion. However, his pairing with Paul Heyman and ascending as the Tribal Chief took Reigns and WWE to a new level.
Speaking to Graham GSM Matthews on WrestleRant, Heyman commented on the legacy of Roman Reigns.
"Midway through the last decade, I think Roman Reigns was worthy of being called the legend when he had already main evented three or four consecutive WrestleManias. This was while he was still the Big Dog Roman Reigns and we had not entered the era of the Tribal Chief, The Head Of The Table, the Undisputed WWE Universal Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns, which was August 2020. I think he was already a legend when we got paired together on television, and everything that was accomplished before August 2020 would, by our design, pale by comparison to what gets accomplished after August 2020, which is something that was discussed in depth in this documentary, which was his confidence consistent pursuit of greatness," said Heyman.
Reigns is set to headline both nights of WrestleMania 40.
On night one, Reigns teams with The Rock to face Seth Rollins & Cody Rhodes. On night two, he will defend his Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against Rhodes.
