WWE officially hands Roman Reigns' new nickname ahead of Survivor Series: WarGames

Ahead of WWE's Survivor Series: WarGames Premium Live Event, it seems that the company has handed Roman Reigns another new nickname. The OTC will be in action at the PLE this weekend in Vancouver, Canada.

According to a new video posted by WWE on its social media pages, Roman Reigns has earned the title of Mr. Survivor Series. Many fans could argue this since Randy Orton has held the nickname for several years after making 14 appearances at the event and has been the Sole Survivor three consecutive times.

Throughout history, Shawn Michaels has become known as Mr. WrestleMania, Brock Lesnar was Mr. SummerSlam, and now Randy Orton has seemingly been overtaken as Mr. Survivor Series.

Roman Reigns made his main roster debut in the 2012 edition of the PLE alongside his Shield brothers, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose (FKA Jon Moxley in AEW). He won his first WWE World Title at the 2015 Survivor Series. However, his reign lasted only five minutes and fifteen seconds as Sheamus cashed in his Money in the Bank contract. Reigns has appeared eight times at the premium live event, and on November 30, the OTC will make his ninth appearance as he is set to compete in his second WarGames match.

If Roman Reigns can guide his mismatched team past Solo Sikoa's Bloodline this weekend, it would go much further to cementing him as Mr. Survivor Series. The elimination match is no longer a regular Survivor Series fixture, which means that WarGames is now the match to win.

Will Roman Reigns' team be able to co-exist at Survivor Series?

This is the major talking point ahead of the show: Reigns has recruited a team whose members don't necessarily like him as much, unlike Solo Sikoa's faction which is fiercely loyal to him. Sikoa has shown that he has all of his men on the same page and they all enter to his music like a real team.

The OTC and Jimmy Uso seem to be the only ones on the same page, and Paul Heyman's addition of CM Punk has thrown up more questions. It's clear that Punk is there to avenge the attack on Heyman and doesn't care about Reigns or the issues between the families.

It seems that Reigns will be in the biggest match of his life this weekend, and there's much more riding on this one than he is used to.
