10 WWE Superstars who have never defeated Roman Reigns
In the ever-evolving landscape of WWE, certain superstars emerge as colossal figures, leaving an indelible mark on the industry. One such luminary is Roman Reigns, the Undisputed Universal Champion, whose reign has been nothing short of dominance.
As we traverse the rich history of WWE rivalries, a distinct pattern arises, there exists an elite group of superstars who, despite their prowess, found themselves unable to conquer the formidable Roman Reigns. Let’s delve into the narratives of these ten remarkable individuals, exploring the moments when they faced the undeniable dominance of the Tribal Chief.
10. Sami Zayn:
The charismatic Sami Zayn, a former Intercontinental Champion, faced Roman Reigns seven times but fell short in each encounter. Notably, Zayn’s challenge at Elimination Chamber 2023 showcased his resilience, even in the face of Reigns’ supremacy, as he continued to defy the odds.
9. Mark Henry:
The World’s Strongest Man, Mark Henry, crossed paths with Roman Reigns during the latter’s ascent. Serving as a stepping stone, Henry fell to Reigns four times, a testament to WWE’s narrative of establishing Reigns as a formidable force in the main event scene.
8. Dolph Ziggler:
Known for his resilience, Dolph Ziggler often played the role of the sacrificial lamb in WWE storylines. Against Roman Reigns, Ziggler endured defeat nine times, reflecting his commitment to elevating fellow superstars, even at the cost of personal victories.
7. AJ Styles:
A celebrated former WWE Champion, AJ Styles, has etched his name in history. However, against Roman Reigns, Styles faced adversity, suffering seven defeats. As he contemplates a return, the Undisputed Universal Championship may once again be within his sights, providing an opportunity for redemption.
6. Edge:
In 2021, Edge stepped into the spotlight with Roman Reigns in their WrestleMania 37 clash. Despite Edge’s storied career, Roman Reigns emerged victorious in a triple-threat match, marking Edge’s second defeat in a memorable encounter at Money in the Bank 2021.
5. Chris Jericho:
A luminary in the wrestling world, Chris Jericho, during his tenure in WWE, faced Roman Reigns nine times and emerged defeated on each occasion. Jericho’s departure from WWE in 2018 marked the end of this chapter, leaving him with an unvanquished opponent in the form of Reigns.
4. Randy Orton:
The Viper, Randy Orton, found himself entwined in a series of battles with Roman Reigns, with 21 losses and three draws in their 24 encounters. Their rivalry, though dormant for a while, remains a testament to Reigns’ consistent dominance over an established veteran.
3. The Undertaker:
The Undertaker, a living legend in WWE, met Roman Reigns in a historic clash at WrestleMania 33. While Undertaker’s WrestleMania legacy is illustrious, Roman Reigns secured a monumental victory, handing The Deadman only his second defeat at the grandest stage of them all.
2. Drew McIntyre:
The Scottish Warrior, Drew McIntyre, entered the ring with determination, yet Roman Reigns emerged victorious in all 30 matches. Despite being a favourite for the Undisputed Universal Championship at Clash at the Castle 2022, McIntyre fell short, leaving a significant void in his quest for supremacy against the Tribal Chief.
1. John Cena:
A titan in the wrestling world, John Cena engaged in a protracted rivalry with Roman Reigns, marking a clash of eras. The 16-time World Champion, an icon in his own right, always put over Roman Reigns, losing to him in all 11 encounters. Their last one-on-one match unfolded in the main event of SummerSlam 2021, a testament to the passing of the torch.
Conclusion
