5 Backstage stories about Roman Reigns you might not know

#3. Triple H ordered Roman Reigns to apologize to the locker room after he got suspended

Roman Reigns apologized to his peers after his Wellness Policy violation.

Back in June of 2016, WWE suspended Roman Reigns for 30 days after he violated the company's wellness policy. He handled the situation professionally, owning his mistake, and addressing the locker room regarding it. He even tweeted about his suspension, taking full responsibility.

I apologize to my family, friends and fans for my mistake in violating WWE’s wellness policy. No excuses. I own it.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Mark Carrano, director of Talent Relations, made Reigns apologize to the locker room on orders from Triple H. "The Big Dog" has redeemed himself since 2016 as a popular figure among his peers and the locker room leader.

WWE initially slid Roman Reigns down the card as he held the WWE Championship when he failed the drug test. However, his attitude likely impressed those in power. By WrestleMania 33, Reigns was the top star in the company.

The suspension in mid-2016 was merely a blip for Roman Reigns, who seems to be the consummate professional in WWE. He has become a much bigger star in the four years since.
