5 WWE Superstars who had real-life heat with Roman Reigns 

#1. Roman Reigns and Randy Orton once had a showdown backstage

Roman Reigns may be considered to be the face of WWE at present, but Randy Orton has been part of the company for more than two decades and the two stars have come head to head in the past.

When Reigns first came through the ranks in the company, the current Universal Champion screwed up a spot in a match against The Viper which led to a loud backstage argument.

Bryan Alvarez of The Wrestling Observer revealed that the argument later led to a power struggle backstage since Triple H and Vince McMahon had different ideas on handling the situation.

"There was heat on the Shield in recent weeks. It was said that Rollins and Reigns were the two the office was upset with... Another WWE source said the issue with Reigns was that there was a house show tag match which Reigns and Randy Orton were in, and they botched up a spot and got into a shouting match about it backstage. A guy in Reigns' spot arguing with a guy in Randy Orton's spot is a great way to get massive heat on you."

Since then, Roman Reigns and Orton have had a much more professional relationship and even joked on Instagram in 2020 about Reigns' new teeth.
