Former WWE Superstar Al Snow picked WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns as the top Male Wrestler of the Year.
Reigns had a stellar year on WWE SmackDown, taking down one formidable challenger after another. The Tribal Chief's historic title reign saw him beat the likes of Daniel Bryan, Edge, Jey Uso, Cesaro, John Cena, Finn Balor, Big E, and Brock Lesnar.
Al Snow was in conversation with Riju Dasgupta during the inaugural Sportskeeda Wrestling Awards. He picked Reigns as the Top Male Wrestler, saying The Tribal Chief came into his own in 2021. Snow thought Reigns worked tremendously on his character development and morphed into a top superstar capable of carrying the company:
"I'd pick Roman Reigns. I feel Roman Reigns has finally come into himself. He started to find his voice and that worked for him in the angle with John Cena. He's really stepped up his game and he's capable of carrying the spot that he's now in. I think that Roman Reigns has been incredible in his development and growth over this past year." (from 3:40 onwards)
