Although Roman Reigns did not appear on WWE television for much of 2020, he was still able to break one of his own personal records. For the first time in his WWE career, the Universal Champion amassed a win percentage of more than 90 percent in the same calendar year.
Much like John Cena and Hulk Hogan, Roman Reigns has earned a reputation as someone who wins the majority of his matches. Prior to 2020, the former Shield member performed as a babyface for over six years. Babyface Superstars usually pick up victories at live events, which means their overall win ratios are often very high.
According to Cagematch.net, Roman Reigns won 90.6% of his WWE matches in 2020. This includes his matches on WWE television, as well as the matches he competed in at live events before the COVID-19 pandemic.

The only Roman Reigns match in 2020 that ended without a winner took place on the January 3 episode of SmackDown. Daniel Bryan and Reigns fought to a no contest against Dolph Ziggler and King Corbin in a tag team match.
