Roman Reigns returned to WWE 2020, alongside legendary manager Paul Heyman, as a heel after a long wait of almost six long years. Roman Reigns altering his WWE moniker from the face The Big Dog, to the Head of the Table was a generational move. 

In 2020, Roman Reigns returned and captured the WWE Universal championship defeating The Fiend Bray Wyatt. Later in 2022, he locked horns with one of his arch-rivals and former clients of Paul Heyman, Brock Lesnar. Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar then fought in a champion vs champion winner-takes-it-all match at WrestleMania 38. 

Roman Reigns defeated Brock Lesnar cleanly, became double champion, and was crowned as the WWE Undisputed Champion. After enjoying a four-year dominating reign, Cody Rhodes defeated Roman Reigns at WrestleMania XL and became the new WWE champion ending the legendary championship run of Roman Reigns. 

Paul Heyman has made a big-time contribution in crafting Roman Reigns’s Tribal Chief moniker as one of the all-time greats. Both Paul Heyman and Roman Reigns not only share a special bond on the screen but also share an incredible bond behind the curtains of WWE. 


In the recent trailer of A&E Biography dedicated to Paul Heyman, The Wiseman talks about his bond with The Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns on-screen and off-screen.

Paul Heyman stated, “Brock (Lesnar) wasn't here, and I can't imagine anyone else that would compel me to go to work every day with that passion other than Roman Reigns. I'm not just on camera with Roman Reigns; I work very closely behind the scenes with Roman Reigns."
