#5. Roman Reigns faced The Rated-R Superstar thrice in different circumstances

The first time the Ultimate Opportunist and Roman Reigns locked horns was at WrestleMania 37. The Tribal Chief successfully defended his Universal Championship against Edge and Daniel Bryan (AKA Bryan Danielson) after stacking them on top of each other to close the show.

The duo's last singles bout against each other was at the 2021 Money in the Bank event. Unfortunately for the Hall of Famer, he was again unable to defeat The Tribal Chief for the Universal Championship.

The two Superstars last faced off on an episode of SmackDown in a six-man tag team match. Roman was flanked by The Usos, who picked up the win against Edge and The Mysterios.

Both stars eventually fought once more at the following Hell in a Cell event in a mixed six-man tag match. Edge was now joined by Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley. Meanwhile, Finn Balor and Liv Morgan joined the Phenomenal One in a losing effort.
