Roman Reigns can't wrestle? Yes. Yes, he can.

It's hard to tell where this narrative that "Reigns can't wrestle" actually started, but at this point, anyone who believes that is the case clearly hasn't watched Reigns perform in the ring over the years. Not even including all of his stellar matches as part of The Shield, Reigns has a long history of putting on consistently good to great matches with a variety of different superstars.

Singles matches that come to mind immediately include his WrestleMania 31 match against Brock Lesnar, AJ Styles at Extreme Rules 2016, Daniel Bryan at Fastlane 2015 or even Braun Strowman at Fastlane 2017. But really, his matches have been well above average for the vast majority of his run as a singles star over the last three years.

Is Roman Reigns the next Shawn Michaels? Probably not. But he always brings a big fight feel to his matches, which are typically very good and rarely has a bad match no matter who his opponent is.
