It provoked The Undertaker and he attacked Roman before a match between them was made official for WrestleMania 33.

Later, the Undertaker choke slammed Roman Reigns onto a steel chair. Roman Reigns even kicked out of a tombstone piledriver. Reigns then attacked Taker with the steel chair and hit two consecutive spears. The Deadman tried his signature sit-up but suddenly collapsed.

6. WrestleMania 34 – vs Brock Lesnar – WWE Universal Championship
At WrestleMania 34, Roman Reigns headlined the shows of the shows for the fourth consecutive time. He earned the title shot by winning the Elimination Chamber match.

Roman was handed a suspension on his statement. When Roman Reigns appeared to confront Lesnar, he got arrested by the US Marshals before being attacked by Lesnar.

Edge won the 2021 Royal Rumble match and challenged the Tribal Chief Roman Reigns for the WWE Universal Championship at WrestleMania 37.

Bryan mocked him for that very reason and demanded another shot at the championship. As a result, Daniel Bryan was scheduled to face Reigns again at Fastlane but the match ended in a no contest as Edge attacked both men with a steel chair. Later, WWE official Adam Pearce confirmed that the Universal Championship match at WrestleMania 37 will be a triple threat match as Roman Reigns will defend his title against both Daniel Bryan and Edge.
The triple threat storyline was the best storyline heading into WrestleMania 37. It was also quite historic as all three superstars returned from career-threatening injuries(or disease in the case of Roman Reigns). When Edge speared Roman, Bryan pulled out the referee to stop the pinfall. An infuriated Edge then hit Bryan with con-chair-to. An intervention from Jey Uso then helped Roman to take down Edge and hit con-chair-to on him also. Roman then stacked both opponents to get the pinfall to retain his title.
9. WrestleMania 38 – vs Brock Lesnar – WWE Championship & Universal Championship Unification Match

10. WrestleMania 39 – vs Cody Rhodes – Undisputed WWE Universal Championship
Roman Reigns has surpassed more than 2 years as the Universal Champion and was completing 1 year as the Undisputed Universal Champion when he faced Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 39. Cody got this title shot by winning men’s Royal Rumble of 2023. During the build-up, Roman and Heyman played mind games with Cody and referenced his father Dusty Rhodes many times with Heyman even saying Dusty said Roman was the son he never had. Cody maintain throughout the build-up that he did not have an option to lose as he was here to finish the story.
This was Roman’s best match yet at WrestleMania and his seventh WrestleMania main event. Cody gave him a tough fight as he kicked out of the pin after superman punch and spear. Roman also survived after kicking out of pedigree and Crossrhodes. Soon, The Usos tried to interfere only to be countered by Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn. Ultimately, Solo Sikoa hit Cody with a Samoan Spike from the outside to allow Roman to hit another spear to get the pinfall and the win.
11. WrestleMania 40 Night 1 – Seth Rollins & Cody Rhodes vs The Rock & Roman Reigns
Cody Rhodes won the men’s Royal Rumble 2024 and signaled that he would challenge Roman Reigns for Universal Championship at WrestleMania. Two days later on RAW, World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins tried to convince Cody to choose to face him at WrestleMania. Cody then stepped aside from facing Roman later that week on SmackDown to let The Rock face his cousin Roman Reigns. At WrestleMania kick-off event in Las Vegas on February 8, 2024, Roman also said that Cody has passed onto his chance to face him and it was his decision to choose his opponent which would be the Rock.
However, Cody announced that he would face actually Roman at WrestleMania. During the promo, Cody said Rock and Roman’s grandfather would be ashamed of them for forcing him to step aside. The Rock slapped Cody for his comments on his family. Rollins then argued with The Rock over slapping Cody. The following week on RAW, Rollins offered to accompany Cody to fight The Bloodline(Roman Reigns, The Rock and others). Cody then challenged The Rock for a singles match, but The Rock responded with a challenge for a tag team match with Roman as his tag team partner against Cody and Rollins. The stipulation for this match mandated that The Bloodline would be banned from the ringside if Cody & Rollins won, but the match between Roman and Cody would turn into The Bloodline Rules match.
As the tag team match headlined the night 1 of WrestleMania, The Rock used his influence as the board member to bully the referee during the match to get unfair advantage several times. Roman had Cody in a guillotine choke in the final minutes of the match. However, Rollins broke the choke to save Cody. Cody was looking to hit Roman with the Crossrhodes when Rock stopped him and hit him with the Rockbottom and People’s Elbow to get the pinfall.
12. WrestleMania 40 Night 2 – vs Cody Rhodes – Undisputed WWE Universal Championship
Cody Rhodes won the men’s Royal Rumble once again in 2024. He pointed towards after his win, indicating that he would challenge him once again at WrestleMania XL. On SmackDown February 2, 2024 episode, Cody said he wanted to take away not just the title from Roman but everything. After this, The Rock came out and Cody seemingly stepped aside from facing Roman at WrestleMania to allow The Rock vs Roman Reigns. At WrestleMania XL kick off event, Roman announced that he had decided to face The Rock at the event instead of Cody. Cody then interrupted Rock and Roman to say it was not Roman’s choice to make, but it was his own as the winner of Royal Rumble, and he had chosen to face Roman.
Roman broke Hulk Hogan’s record for the most main event matches at WrestleMania with this bout as this was his ninth headliner bout. As The Rock and Roman won the tag team match on night 1, this contest between Cody and Roman was turned into a Bloodline Rules match. Both men fought fiercely as we saw back and forth action in the first 20 minutes or so. It then turned into chaos when The Bloodline and Rock got involved who were countered by Rollins, John Cena, Jey Uso, and The Undertaker. The finish came with Cody hitting Roman with a trio of Crossrhodes to get the pinfall on Roman and ending his three years long reign.
Glad to see Roman Reigns go. His 1300+ days was a sham. A lot of regulars on Monday night and Friday night are back in the ring 3 or 4 times a month. Reigns fought a minimum number of matches during those 1300 days. If he had been scheduled to fight weekly or bi-weekly, he would have lost his titles long ago. Instead WWE schedules weeks of qualification matches so someone can “earn” the right to fight Reigns. This is nonsense. The WWE manaagement is to blame. Keeping him away from possible defeat situations was their strategy. I was sick of the Bloodline and “acknowledge me” months ago. Let’s hear it from others who feel the same way about Roman Reigns. So now Paul Heyman has to find another fighter to champion with his little-boy groveling.
