Roman Reigns will surely be regarded amongst the greats

#1 This era's John Cena

Reigns has been a part of 4 WrestleMania's main event 4 times in a row — Reigns

It is interesting to note that Roman Reigns has been on the main event at four out of the six WrestleManias he has been a part of. Reigns won his first two Mania matches as a part of the Shield, and has pinned future Hall Of Famers like The Undertaker and Triple H.

This might remind some fans of the kind of main event push Hulk Hogan and John Cena received in their heydays. Hogan was involved in the main event of the first nine WrestleManias, while Cena has headlined nine WrestleManias himself. It's not a secret that WWE is keen on pushing Roman as the flag-bearer of this era. Whether the hardcore fans like it or not, Reigns is destined to be an integral part of WrestleMania for years to come.

With accomplishments such as these, plus the fact that Reigns has a good claim of being one of the greatest (and the most controversial) superstars of this generation, there's not a shred of doubt that his name will be mentioned alongside the greatest superstars in the history of this business.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
