Roman Reigns has only been pinned 23 times since making his WWE debut as part of The Shield in December 2012, with his latest pinfall defeat coming at the hands of Seth Rollins in the gauntlet match on Raw in February 2018.

Just 13 different Superstars have been able to keep “The Big Dog” down for the 1-2-3 over the years and only three of them (Rollins, Finn Balor and Braun Strowman) have defeated him clean in one-on-one singles matches.

However, his very first pinfall loss surprisingly came at the hands of Cody Rhodes when, in October 2013, The Big Show knocked Reigns out with a KO punch and the Rhodes Brothers defeated The Shield to win the Tag Team titles.
