#3 Daniel Bryan has never properly beaten Roman Reigns on WWE TV

Despite their long history together, Daniel Bryan has never pinned or submitted Roman Reigns on WWE TV. His only victories over the current Universal Champion have come via disqualification or with someone else taking the fall in a six-man Tag Team Match. Anyway, Reigns has overwhelmingly had Bryan's number throughout their battles.

The Shield's first WWE match at TLC 2012 ended with Roman Reigns pinning Daniel Bryan, as did the group's first Tag Team Title match at Extreme Rules 2013. The Tribal Chief has been even more dominant in singles competition, with a string of high-profile victories over The Leader of the Yes Movement.

Reigns defeated Bryan at Fastlane 2015, with his WrestleMania 31 world title shot on the line. He did so again at the same event six years later, this time with the Universal Championship at stake.

Reigns would go on to pin both Bryan and Edge at WrestleMania 37, before ending the former's WWE career with yet another victory over him on SmackDown. Despite the feud being so lop-sided, Daniel Bryan may be Roman Reigns' greatest ever rival in terms of making him look like a dominant force of nature.
