5 Current WWE Superstars' NXT Win/Loss record: How many matches did Roman Reigns and Otis lose in NXT?

#1 WWE Superstar Roman Reigns (14-1-0)

'The Tribal Chief' Roman Reigns is currently the biggest heel in all of WWE. He worked as Leakee in Florida Championship Westling and later formed The Shield with Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins. The trio had a short stint in NXT before they were moved to the main roster in late 2012. The Shield soon became the biggest faction in WWE and was incredibly popular among the fans despite being heels. Following The Shield's implosion in 2014, all members won World titles at some point in the careers.

Much like Asuka, Roman Reigns had an incredible record in NXT. The key difference between the win/loss record of both Superstars is that Reigns wrestled a handful of matches, contrary to Asuka who wrestled almost 200 bouts. Reigns wrestled only 15 matches in NXT and won 14 of those. He would go on to become one of the most protected Superstars in WWE and would headline four consecutive WrestleMania shows against WWE's biggest Superstars. Now that he is a ruthless heel, things are only going to get better for Reigns in the near future.

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.
