#2. First WrestleMania Roman Reigns has missed since his debut

Roman Reigns was considered to be the biggest star within The Shield, and in the years since their split, he has become a World Champion and was able to main event four consecutive WrestleMania's between 2015 and 2018, but this year is the first time in his career that he will miss WWE's biggest show.

The former World Champion was taken off the card earlier this week as a preventative measure since his recent battle with leukemia meant that his immune system was compromised and with the current COVID-19 pandemic, it wasn't wise for him to wrestle in public.

Reigns left WWE back in November 2018 ahead of his battle with leukemia and was still able to make his return to the company in time to be part of last year's WrestleMania where he battled Drew McIntyre.

Reigns was originally scheduled to battle Goldberg for the Universal Championship as part of WrestleMania 36. Reigns never lost the Universal Championship he was forced to relinquish the title when he revealed his leukemia diagnosis, this was his chance to regain the title he never lost.
