How Roman Reigns Became WWE's Greatest Talker

Wrestling
Roman Reigns is one of the greatest talkers of his generation but it did not start that way. For years he was the most protected man in WWE, handed scripted monologues written by others, and booed out of buildings for it. Then when the arenas went silent in 2020, he and Paul Heyman joined forces and the Tribal Chief was born. In this video we document the full evolution of Roman Reigns on the microphone. From the tight-lipped enforcer of The Shield, to the Big Dog era that fans rejected, to the Bloodline epic that rebuilt him from the ground up, all the way to the OTC. We cover ''sufferin succotash'', ''believe that", the John Cena promo that exposed everything, the acknowledgment, the Usos, Sami Zayn, Cody Rhodes finishing the story, CM Punk aka ''Old Phil'' and the Shield chair that finally got put to rest. This is Roman Reigns' greatest hits and misses on the mic, all in one place. 00:00 - INTRO 01:27 - SHIELDED CHARISMA 07:08 - BIG DOG DAYS 09:08 - REUNITING THE FAMILIES 14:31 - SMASHED EVERYBODY 21:00 - BLOODLINE'S FINAL DESTINATION 23:44 - MORE THAN ONE ROYAL FAMILY 28:34 - SHIELD CHAIR AND OLD PHIL #RomanReigns #WWE #TheBloodline
