"He has been my Kryptonite" - 2-time WWE Champion admits biggest issue facing Roman Reigns

Roman Reigns
Roman Reigns has held the WWE Universal Title for two years

The Tribal Chief Roman Reigns is one WWE Superstar that Drew McIntyre has never defeated in a singles competition.

Drew McIntyre is set to face Roman Reigns for the WWE Undisputed Universal Championship at WWE Clash at the Castle. Prior to this, both superstars wrestled each other on four separate occasions.

Their first encounter was at WrestleMania 35, then on an episode of Monday Night RAW on May 6, 2019, another one at WWE Stomping Ground in 2019, and lastly at Survivor Series 2020 in a Champion versus Champion bout. All four times, Reigns was the one to come out on top.

While speaking to NDTV, the former 2-time WWE Champion Drew McIntyre talked about how he would always come up short against the Tribal Chief. Be it the Big Dog or the Tribal Chief, he has always been the better wrestler.

"Yeah, Roman is certainly one of my toughest opponents. He has been my kryptonite. I have never been able to get that win over him in the past few years," Drew McIntyre said. [H/T NDTV Sports]

Drew McIntyre opened up on why he no longer respects Roman Reigns

While speaking in the same interview with NDTV, McIntyre also mentioned how Reigns has changed his personality over the years.

Previously, as the Big Dog, he used to take care of business on his own, but now he has his family members and Paul Heyman to help him get the job done. With Reigns always dependent on others to help him get the win, McIntyre has lost respect for him.

"He has been through a change in recent years. He used to be somebody I used to respect more than anybody else. There was a time when nobody was on his side but he pushed ahead... He gets his family involved, the USOS get involved. Paul Heyman gets involved and I don't admire that Roman as much but I know how capable he is," Drew McIntyre said. [H/T NDTV Sports]

This time around things are a bit different as the Scottish Warrior will be facing the Tribal Chief a lot closer to home.

Drew McIntyre claims to be well prepared and vows to dethrone the Tribal Chief.
