What advice did Roman Reigns’ father give him early in life? Exploring The Tribal Chief’s revelation
Despite facing challenges, Roman Reigns has experienced a rapid ascent in WWE, cementing his position at the top of the professional wrestling industry. As a six-time WWE World Champion, he is currently in the midst of a record-breaking 1,308-day reign as Universal champion. He has also headlined seven WrestleMania events and will once again take the main event spot at this year’s ‘Mania, which will be held at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, where he will face off against Cody Rhodes.
Despite playing the role of a despised heel, the Head of the Table has been a financial powerhouse for the Stamford-based company, rivaling John Cena’s merchandise sales and reaching the level of a 13-time WWE Champion.
From a young age, Roman Reigns understood the significance of money in the world of pro wrestling. In a recent revelation, he shared the valuable advice his father, Sika Anoa’i of the Wild Samoans, had given him before he embarked on his journey in the ring.
During a confessional on A&E’s most recent Biography: WWE Legends documentary, Reigns shared the lessons his father had taught him, offering insight into the 38-year-old’s life.
“From the very beginning my dad always taught me that when you come around this ring, it’s only about money. It’s only about drawing money.”
The WWE Universal Champion, who remains undefeated, has played a crucial role in propelling the company into a new era of success. His impressive main event performances and record-breaking championship reign have greatly contributed to the company’s financial prosperity.
At WrestleMania 32, Reigns emerged victorious over Triple H in the main event and claimed the WWE Championship. The event set a new record for the company’s highest attendance, as 101,763 fans gathered at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
John Cena Praises Roman Reigns as ‘The Greatest of All Time’ for Elevating the Title
John Cena is widely considered to be one of the most successful WWE Superstars in history, if not the most successful. His unparalleled charisma and unwavering dedication to the pro wrestling industry set him apart from his fellow peers.
Despite transitioning into a part-time role, the Leader of the Cenation continues to follow the product closely while pursuing his acting career in Hollywood during Roman Reigns’ ascent.
During his career, Reigns has emerged victorious over Cena twice in singles matches. At No Mercy 2017, he may have been symbolically handed the torch by the Doctor of Thugonomics when he came out on top.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Cena praised The Bloodline leader with a highly positive assessment.
“Many have ‘held the title,’ but none have elevated the position and have had as much success personally and for the entirety of the WWE like Roman Reigns. A true one of a kind and, in my opinion, the greatest of all time.”
Reigns’ historic championship reign may come to an end on April 7th as he faces off against Cody Rhodes. Should he be defeated by The American Nightmare in Philadelphia, he will rank fourth on the list of longest WWE world title reigns. There is no doubt that his reign solidifies his legacy as one of the most legendary champions in history.
