Happy Birthday to WWE icon Roman Reigns.

Reigns was born on May 25, 1985, in Pensacola, Florida, to the legendary wrestler Sika Anoaʻi, of Samoan descent, and Patricia Hooker, of Sicilian-Italian ancestry. Thus, he has turned 41 today.

A multitude of fans sent birthday wishes and tributes on social media, celebrating his 41st birthday. Several posts and tweets have been made on the internet, sharing his accomplishments over the years.

Reigns signed a contract with WWE in 2010 when he was only 25 years old. Two and a half decades later, he is one of the top names in the promotion and the face of the company.

The Tribal Chief is a 7-time WWE Champion, 1-time Intercontinental Champion, 1-time United States Champion, and 1-time Tag Team Champion. He has won the Royal Rumble twice and main-evented WrestleMania eleven times.

He also holds the record for the longest world title run in modern WWE history: his historic 1,316-day title reign as the WWE Universal Champion.

Roman Reigns Set To Make A Raw Appearance On His Birthday

Roman Reigns won the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 42 after defeating CM Punk in a singles match. His cousin, Jacob Fatu, then challenged him for the title at Backlash PLE, which Reigns retained. However, Fatu hasn’t let him go.

Despite the loss at Backlash, Fatu kept attacking Reigns and eventually challenged him to a Tribal Combat match at Clash in Italy on May 30, which Reigns accepted.

This week’s Monday Night Raw will be the go-home edition before the Clash in Italy premium live event. It was recently announced that Roman Reigns and Jacob Fatu will have their contract-signing segment on the show tonight.

It was also revealed that Oba Femi will kick off tonight’s Raw episode and address Lesnar’s attack on him. Femi is scheduled to face Brock Lesnar in a rematch at Clash in Italy.
