Roman Reigns Praised For Major WWE Sacrifice: “It’s The Love For Your Family”

Roman Reigns

Roman Reigns has received praise for his actions at SummerSlam.

Reigns returned to WWE on July 14 after a brief hiatus to save his cousin Jey Uso and CM Punk from The Vision duo of Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed.

It was later decided that Reigns and Uso would face Breakker and Reed at SummerSlam in a tag team match.

The four superstars opened the show during Night 1 of ‘the Biggest Party of the Summer,’ putting on a clinical show for the New Jersey audience.

During the closing minutes of the match, The Tribal Chief saved Jey from a Bron Breakker Spear, instead eating the move himself.

As Roman Reigns lay writhing in pain, Uso capitalized on the opportunity to hit Bronson Reed with a Uso Splash, securing his team the victory.

Jey Uso’s father and WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi recently appeared on his Off the Top podcast, praising Reigns for his sacrifice and his love for the family.

See, that speaks volume on Roman, like, he gets it, you know what I mean? Like, this is the biggest star in professional wrestling. This is the biggest star, but then, it’s bigger than him the way his mind thinks, right? I just feel like for somebody that did something like that, it’s the love from your family. [9:49 onwards]

Roman Reigns Scheduled For Major RAW Appearance

Roman Reigns’ last WWE RAW appearance did not go as planned.

The former champion made his presence felt after the main event of the August 4 episode, but was destroyed by The Vision after a Seth Rollins Stomp and three Bronson Reed Tsunamis.

After missing last week’s taping, it was announced that he will be present in Pennsylvania.

Roman Reigns is also billed for the Clash in Paris PLE, but his opponent has yet to be revealed.

At the Paris event, Reigns’ rival Seth Rollins faces a massive challenge after his match was announced last week.
