Roman Reigns is closing in on three years as a world champion. Reigns’s “Tribal Chief” persona made its debut three years ago today at WWE SummerSlam 2020 when he attacked “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman following the pair’s WWE Universal Championship main event match. One week later, Reigns defeated the two men in a triple threat match to become WWE Universal Champion and has held that title ever since. Over the next three years, Reigns racked up defenses against the likes of Brock Lesnar, Edge, Bryan Danielson, John Cena, and Goldberg before adding the WWE Championship to his waist in April 2022. Today, Reigns is recognized as the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, holding a singular gold championship that represents both the WWE and Universal Titles.
Taking to Twitter, fans have reflected on the Head of the Table’s record-shattering reign with one word descriptions…
Undisputed.
Don’t even say there is another run or storyline that challenges this one. You’d be wrong. #tribalchief
Unimpressive. He hasn’t defended the title nearly as much during that reign.
Forced
10,10,10,10,all across the board! Roman Reigns being heel and being The Tribal Chief up to a whole different level and I can’t see no 1 doing it better after him????????
iconic
(Mostly) cinema. It’s super popular for a reason and I’ve seen so many people return to wrestling or START watching wrestling because of this run. It is undeniable. It’s gone a little long, but also I still keep watching and getting excited for the storyline matches so…
I only started watching just over a year ago again. His matches almost seem the same each time. They have him win by cheating. Let him win on his own. It gets old.
Acknowledged.
(Give me 3 more years)
I have a few 1 word descriptors
First year: yahoo!, timeless, Oscar
Second: Okay, worthy, dramatic, storytelling, interesting
Third: Overdrawn, done, predictable, lost
End-it-already (ha-ha)
Epic.
