Ever since making his debut in 2012 as part of the SHIELD, Roman Reigns has been at the top of WWE. Despite wrestling fans hating on his baby face and how he has given several unjustified shots at different championships, making him a Grand Slam Champion in 2017.
However, these years were crucial in shaping his WWE career because they helped him to establish himself as the Tribal Chief, which multiplied his fan following by several folds. Thus making him one of the best characters in the history of the company.
It is quite rare to see Reigns breaking his character. But he decided to make an exception this time, as he was reviewing the memes made on him with the Wiseman, Paul Heyman.
Roman Reigns breaks his Tribal Chief gimmick for his Wiseman
Recently, Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman were present in an exclusive event hosted by IGN, where the OTC rated some of the favorite memes that made their way to social media and have become absolute fan favorites. He commenced the review session, rating a meme with a modest “5.”
It was the second meme that caught his attention, which featured a picture of Paul Heyman looking at him with the in-picture caption,
“Find you someone that looks at you the way Paul Heyman looks at Roman Reigns.”
Reigns mentioned how he has seen a ton of these “looking at you” memes and how he loves them. He broke his character as he expressed his love for his Wiseman, rating it as a ten, while Heyman says, “You know, you won’t” and smiles.
Later, in the video, Reigns came across a football meme, featuring a picture of him and Punk at the WWE Survivor Series PPV. While he called the meme “stupid,” he liked the photo and how this moment was “excellent” and had a real meaning behind it, which happens to be “Punk can’t do s**t while I’m around.”
Later, he came across a double tweet of him when he was 17 with a signed autograph of Trish Stratus and claimed how he didn’t know her very well and was a bit of a fan back in the day and how the veteran claiming that Reigns acknowledging him was one of those situations that cling onto him for recognition and love.
On one hand, he praises the WWE Hall of Famer for her career and her contribution to professional wrestling and agrees with Heyman on how she’s a “stage five clinger.” What caught him off guard was a picture of his Wiseman dressed up as a reindeer, making him crack up.
While Heyman tried to defend himself, the 6-time WWE Champion, and how he is in the middle of an “org**m.” However, he broke character and called his manager “kind of cute.” The video summoned the fans, as they loved to see the funny side of Reigns, which makes him such a beloved star.

The transition from the Big Dog to the Tribal Chief persona has been arguably the best character pivot in WWE history, saving Roman Reigns’ career from going downhill. However, fans love to see the funny side of the Grand Slam Champion, as he has a great sense of humor, which the fans love to see in such kinds of videos.
The video was loved by the fans, who left positive comments on the post with 13k likes and counting. The fans commented,
@goldncrypto1542 commented, “Personally. I love seeing this side of Roman he’s funny”
@rigo_025 commented, “4:17 I like how that meme caught Roman off guard that he almost broke character”
@groundbreaker1052 commented, “Nah that last meme was so Outrageous that it had Roman almost break character.”
@AlftredFJones1776 commented, “I hope they do this every year with the WWE 2K cover superstar from now on. Cody last year was hilarious and so was this.”
@Mediumexe commented, “We got roman reacts to his memes before GTA 6”
The video was quite hilarious to watch, but ardent fans are concerned as their Tribal Chief is yet to have a match at WrestleMania, hoping that he gets a storyline for this Elimination Chamber.
WWE Elimination Chamber will air live on Peacock and Netflix on March 1, 2025, at 7ET/ 4PT.
