The world of professional wrestling is an unforgiving one wherein you always have to be on the top of your game to make an impact on fans worldwide. The margins are even tinier when it comes to WWE wherein the smallest of mistakes receive the highest scrutiny.
Despite the close attention to detail that comes with working in WWE, some Superstars have managed to perform at the highest level for several years and managed to carve Hall of Fame-worthy careers.
Some of the currently active WWE Superstars continue to lead their respective brands or divisions despite having been with the company for over a decade. Their prowess can easily make you forget just how long they have been involved in the pro wrestling industry, let alone the WWE. So on that note, let us look at five Superstars whom you may have forgotten have been with WWE for more than 10 years.
#5 R-Truth
Did you know that R-Truth has been wrestling for over 20 years now? His initial run with the then WWF as K-Kwik lasted for only three years where he won the Hardcore Championship twice. However, he made his WWE return back in 2008 and has been with the company ever since.
Reduced to more of a comedy act in the last few years, Truth is a 35-time 24/7 Champion and his alliance with Carmella for the major part of 2018 and 2019 where he also won the Mixed Tag Team Challenge tournament was simply money.
However, the one Ron Killings has been involved in some serious title pursuits during his stay with WWE. He was involved in the world title picture for a good chunk of the early 2010s and his heel run as a member of Awesome Truth alongside The Miz is well known for its notoriety. He is also a two-time United States Champion.
#4 Tamina
It's always great to see hardworking Superstars finally getting their due and it's been great to see Tamina finally getting a push in the last two months after years of playing second-fiddle to other WWE Superstars.
While she did not win the SmackDown Women's Championship despite being in two title-matches, Tamina surely did put up a show on both occasions and the WWE Universe could finally be seen rooting for her.
Tamina has been with WWE since 2010, debuting with The Usos in a segment where the trio attacked The Hart Dynasty. She has since only won the 24/7 Championship once but has had various unsuccessful attempts at winning Gold. She was in the Divas Championship picture when Kaitlyn held the title.
Tamina is most known for being a part of Team BAD alongside Naomi and Sasha Banks back in 2015 when the Women's Revolution was in its infancy. Her recent exploits include an alliance with Nia Jax that began back in 2018 and a subsequent unsuccessful challenge for the inaugural Women's Tag Team Championships.
#3 Titus O'Neil
Despite having a rather successful career in the WWE as a tag division Superstar, it's a shame that Titus O'Neil is best known today for his hilarious fall during the Greatest Royal Rumble back in 2018 where he slipped and slide under the ring during his entrance.
O'Neil signed a developmental contract with WWE back in 2009 and made his way to FCW in 2010. He competed in the second season of NXT as well back when it had a game show format and was mentored by Zack Ryder.
O'Neil had to wait a long time before winning his first-ever title in WWE. He beat The New Day alongside Darren Young as part of The Prime Time Players to win the WWE Tag Team Championship. He was even the first Superstar to win the 24/7 Championship when it was inaugurated by Mick Foley.
Titus O'Neil has taken to an ambassador's role in WWE of late. He was last seen at WrestleMania 36, where he was seen reacting to the Firefly Fun House match between John Cena and Bray Wyatt.
#2 Naomi
Another WWE Superstar to have started in the developmental territory, Naomi started her career all the way back in 2009 and only made her main roster debut in 2012. She was introduced as one of the valets for Brodus Clay alongside Cameron and the duo would be dubbed as The Funkadactyls.
Naomi was also involved in the rather forgettable Team PCB vs Team BAD vs Team Bella feud at the start of the Women's Revolution back in 2015. However, she did manage to win gold on a few occasions in WWE starting with the SmackDown Women's Championship back in 2017 after beating Alexa Bliss at Elimination Chamber.
Naomi would drop the title due to an injury she suffered before claiming it back at WrestleMania 33. That would be her last title in the company. However, Naomi did win the inaugural Women's Battle Royal at WrestleMania back in 2018. She was last seen on WWE TV in a Money in the Bank qualifying match against Dana Brooke which she lost.
#1 Roman Reigns
Starting with the then Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) all the way back in 2010, Roman Reigns has clawed his way through the ranks and reached the very pinnacle of WWE. He could've very well been the current Universal Champion had the coronavirus pandemic not thrown the entire world into disarray.
The Powerhouse of The Shield dominated WWE with his brothers Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose in the early and mid-2010s before breaking out as a singles Superstar. He also won the Royal Rumble back in 2015 which eventually ended in an unsuccessful attempt for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 31.
The Big Dog would eventually go on to win every major title on the main roster of the company, becoming a Grand Slam Champion in the process. He is also only the second Superstar who holds the distinction of beating The Undertaker at WrestleMania.
Reigns has had his love-hate relationship with the WWE Universe but he is undoubtedly one of the greatest Superstars in the company's history.
