Roman Reigns was one of the latest superstars to join Instagram hence, he has only 727k followers on the site, which is very less for a superstar of Reigns' calibre. The Samoan superstar has been very active on social media and has already shared 9 posts since joining Instagram on 26th January.

He has posted updates of his upcoming movie along with the things that he does off camera. Reigns follows only 32 accounts on Instagram, of which 13 belong to WWE superstars.

Paul Heyman, who is the on-screen advocate of the WWE Universal Champion, Brock Lesnar has a good relation with Reigns. The closeness they share can be known from the backstage segment which aired after Roman Reigns announced that he has Leukemia.

Heyman has been working for WWE since decades. The advocate is still active both on-screen and backstage. While he has reduced working backstage, he portrays the character of Brock Lesnar's mouthpiece on WWE TV.

Paul has a special quality of promoting matches with his awesome speeches and epic promos. He has worked with Roman Reigns multiple times on WWE TV.

But, during a match against Samoa Joe in NXT, Tyson got brutally injured and had to retire from in-ring competition.

Jimmy and Jey, The Usos are the cousins of Joe Anoa'i and they also had been a part of a kayfabe storyline along with Roman Reigns, where they, much like real life, portrayed the role of his cousins.

Given that Roman Reigns shares a blood relation with the twin brothers, there could be no bigger reason why he follows both of them on Instagram.


#6 The Rock

Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, a WWE legend and a Hollywood celebrity needs no introduction. He has played a huge role in the development of Roman Reigns' WWE career. It was The Rock who provided Reigns his first major breakthrough in WWE by helping him win the 2015 Royal Rumble match.

Also, The Rock is playing the lead role in Roman Reigns' debut Hollywood venture, Hobbs and Shaw.

#7 Seth Rollins

If there's one man who has always been with Roman Reigns, whether on his side or against him in the WWE, it is Seth Rollins. Rollins made his WWE debut along with Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose as the Shield and the rest, as they say, is history.

The Architect turned heel on his brothers then but after 2 years he turned face to reform his friendship with Roman Reigns. They had quite an amazing run together on RAW in 2016-17 before Dean Ambrose joined the red brand in 2017 and reunited the Shield.

The Shield could not repeat its magic but the fans have always been in the awe of this group. The third member of the Shield, Dean Ambrose is not on Instagram yet and thus, Seth Rollins is the only Hound of Justice that Reigns follows on Instagram.

#8 R-Truth

R-Truth has been associated with Vince McMahon's company for many years and the legend is still active in the ring. He had recently won the United States Championship on SmackDown Live. R-Truth uses his Instagram handle under the name Ron Killings.

Though Reigns and Truth have had very few interactions on-screen, they seem to be good friends off TV as they have been captured together on multiple occasions.


#9 Titus O' Neil

Titus O' Neil made headlines last year with his epic botch while entering the Greatest Royal Rumble match in Saudi Arabia. O' Neil had earlier won the tag team championships in WWE along with Darren Young but he has never made it big in the singles division.

However, he has been very active in WWE's promotional events and that looks like the reason why Roman Reigns is good friends with the Titus brand.

#10 Naomi

Former SmackDown women's champion, Naomi is the wife of Roman Reigns' cousin, Jimmy Uso. The female superstar is popular for her flexibility and unique moves inside the ring.

Because she is Jimmy Uso's better half, it is obvious that Reigns would know her well personally and thus, follows her on Instagram.


#11 Tamina Snuka

Tamina Snuka (real name Sarona Snuka) is the daughter of former WWE legend, Jimmy 'Superfly' Snuka. Jimmy and Tamina are linked to the Anoa'i family by marriage and this relation is well known amongst the WWE Universe.

The fans always wanted the WWE Creative to form a Samoan stable on WWE TV with Roman Reigns as the leader and the Usos, Tamina Snuka and Naomi as his followers. Surprisingly, Roman Reigns does not follow Nia Jax (The Rock's cousin) on Instagram.

#12 Stephanie McMahon

Though Stephanie and Roman are enemies on the screen, they have a friendly relation off the screen and the fact that the Grand Slam champion follows Stephanie on Instagram just solidifies the above statement.


#13 Triple H
