Top 3 highly-rated Roman Reigns PPV matches of 2019

It's been interesting to note that Reigns' top-rated bouts this year have all been in a tag team setting. This is potentially WWE looking to pull back on the positioning of the character and bring back the Roman Reigns that fans truly loved in the beginning of his Shield run.

This final bout was very interesting because the focus was squarely on The Undertaker. The Deadman had faced Goldberg in a prior match in Saudi Arabia that, due to a concussion incident, meant the bout was essentially a write-off. You could almost feel 'Taker's sense of redemption when the bell rang to end the match, having given a performance that was far more fitting of the character that the WWE Universe know and love.

Reigns himself was also impressive in this match, again another opportunity to introduce plunder and a No DQ stipulation, a format that I feel Reigns thrives in best.

As I mentioned before this has been more of a low-key year for Reigns, following his second battle with leukaemia and subsequent return he has been utilised in more of a mid-card featured role, at least until his recent move to SmackDown.
