**Leati Joseph** "**Joe**" **Anoaʻi** (/LAY-AH-tee/, /an-o-WA-ee/; born May 25, 1985) is an American professional wrestler and former professional gridiron football player currently an active member of the WSC Roster under the ring name **Roman Reigns** and is the current WSC Multiversal Champion in his first reign. Reigns certainly had an impact to WSC as he is a decorated 3x and longest reigning WSC Hardcore Champion and 2x WSC Hardcore Tag Team Champion and is currently leader of The Bloodline, with The Usos (?), Paul Heyman, and Solo Sikoa.

### First Hardcore Championship reign's (2019)

Reigns made his WSC debut on October 9, 2019 in a Fatal 4 Way Match along with Jon Moxley, Kane, and champion The Fiend for the WSC Hardcore Championship. Surprisingly, with a Superman Punch and a Spear to Kane, Reigns managed to win his first ever WSC Hardcore Championship reign with Moxley celebrating with him. Reigns then successfully defended his championship against Edge but then lost the title to Braun Strowman in an Ambulance Match.

Reigns then came back in the 2019 Royal Rumble at #23, immediately eliminating Abyss and Randy Orton, but then got stopped by The Fiend. At the final minutes of the match, Reigns managed to eliminate Aleister Black, but was the runner up of the rumble as he got eliminated by "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.

Reigns then returned to face against Moxley for the championship. Reigns over came all the odds and earned his 2nd Hardcore title run. Reigns and Moxley rekindle their friendship at the end of the match, but all of a sudden, a debuting Seth Rollins interfered their moment, leading to a Triple Threat Match in the next video. All of a sudden, Moxley ordered a couple of "Jokerz" to attack Reigns and Rollins mid match. One Barbed Wire Bat to Roman's head later and 1,2,3, Moxley became the first ever 3x WSC Hardcore Champion. This lead up Moxley to turn heel and now being called "(The) Joker Jon Moxley".

### Championship Pursuits (2020)

Roman got another chance at the title from The Joker in early 2020. During their match, it was revealed that The Jokerz took down Reigns' cousins, The Usos, backstage. Then The Jokerz attack Roman out of nowhere with help from Moxley, leading to Moxley retaining his championship.

Reigns then returned at the April 2020 Royal Rumble at #19, going after Joker Jon Moxley. Though Reigns didn't do much, and eventually got eliminated by Aleister Black.

Roman wouldn't be seen for a bit until him showing up to The Stage Creator's birthday party to stop The Fiend. Reigns officially returned facing off against Fiend for the championship, but lost, even getting hit with the mallet, but then gets saved by Jon Moxley (FKA The Joker).

### The Shield (2021)

After a brief hiatus, Reigns returned with Rollins and Moxley interfering after Stage Creator Vs Owens and performs their signature Triple Powerbomb on the new champion Kevin Owens, thus reuniting The Shield. The Shield then participated in the 4th and first ever Tag Team Deadly Games Match along with Darby Allin and Sting, The High Flyers (RVD and Riddle) and The Fiend and Aleister Black. At the end of the match: Reigns (along with Rollins and Moxley) performed a Triple Powerbomb to The Fiend through the cell into the ring. Then Moxley and Roman yank the titles down earning Reigns' first WSC Hardcore Tag Team Championship reign along with Moxley.

Before Rollins' match against Owens for the Hardcore Championship, Moxley and Reigns got attacked when the cameras weren't rolling. It was then revealed that The Undisputed Era were the culprits as they attacked Rollins mid match. But during UE's attack on Rollins, Moxley and Reigns came out to stop them. Unfortunately, Rollins got pinned by Owens regardless, leading Owens to join The Undisputed Era. This set up the first of many Winners-Take-All Matches for the Hardcore AND Tag Team championships between Shield and UE. Eventually, The Shield came out victorious, where Shield retained and Rollins earning his first WSC Hardcore Championship reign.

During the 2nd Ultimate X Match, Kenny Omega attacked Rollins from behind after the match, which leads the rest of The Shield to help Rollins, but both end up getting Super kicked from The Young Bucks. This sets up the 2nd Winners-Take-All Match between The Shield and The Elite. During the match, The Good Brothers distracts The Shield and The Referee, so The Elite can sneak attack. But as they do, Moxley comes out with a Barbed Wire Steel Chair and cracks Gallows and Anderson across their heads, and Mox goes back into the ring with The Shield to perform a Triple Powerbomb to Matt Jackson. But then The Hurt Business comes out also to help The Elite. Kenny sets up Roman for Bobby Lashley to Spear him, but Roman ducked, leaving Omega taking the Spear. Lashley, distraught of what happened, gets Superman Punched by Roman then finally pins Omega.

During a promo with The Shield, MVP sends out The Hurt Business to attack Shield, which by the end of it, leads Moxley put through the floor and crushed with the Big Skull by Lashley. This sets up Shield Vs Hurt Business. This became a handicap match due to Moxley being injured. Shield was not doing well at all, until an ambulance comes out, and the driver is The Lunatic Fringe, which then makes the match even again. Overall, The Shield came out victorious when Roman Speared Lashley through the roof of a car backstage. After the match, however, came out The Wyatt Family, setting up the first ever WSC War Games Match. Although they tried their best, The Shield lost to The Wyatt's when Bray Wyatt (FKA The Fiend) pinned Moxley with a Sister Abigail, ending their record-breaking title reign. Thankfully, they got there rematch in the 2nd WSC WarZone Match. Fortunately, with an interference by Aleister Black, The Shield got there titles back. After the match in an interview with Stage Creator, The Usos appear on screen staring at Shield, specifically Reigns, hinting a Match. Meanwhile, the time is ticking down in the WarZone before it explodes. Erick Rowan and Luke Harper escape, but Wyatt is trapped in the barbed wire. As such, Wyatt presumably got killed in the explosion.

Seconds after the bell ring as they're getting ready to fight The Usos, Roman turned on his Shield Brothers by Superman Punching Rollins and battering punched to a fallen Moxley after getting Superkicked by The Usos. One Spear from Roman later and a pin by The Usos, Jimmy and Jey became the new champions (and currently longest reigning ones), also uniting The Bloodline in WSC. After the announcement where Seth will defend his Hardcore title in the December 2021 Royal Rumble, Rollins knew that The Shield were done, so Moxley got betrayed again as Rollins gave him a Curb Stomp, effectively ending The Shield in WSC.

Reigns, now solo, enters the 2021 Royal Rumble at #2, facing off against former Shield brother Seth Rollins. Then Reigns and Moxley had a backstage brawl, ending with Roman (along with The Usos) performing a Triple Powerbomb to Moxley through a glass table. Roman came back from backstage immediately eliminating the likes of Aleister Black and Brandon Collins. Roman then eliminated Sting, Darby Allin, and Jon Moxley also. Sadly, Reigns only placed runner up, as even if Mox is out, he still managed to distracted Roman so CM Punk could throw him out to win the rumble.

### 3x Hardcore Champion (2022)

Reigns then competed in a Fatal 4 Way for the WSC Hardcore Championship again facing off with his former Shield brothers, Rollins and Moxley, and champion CM Punk, but failed to do so. After the match, Reigns requested to face off against Punk again, and Nathan himself said that it'll be Roman vs Punk vs a mystery opponent in a Barbed Wire Steel Cage Match. Before the match started, Nathan revealed that the mystery person was Cody Rhodes. After Nathan sabotaged Punk by slamming the door shut, Reigns went for a Double-Spear to Punk and Rhodes for the pin, giving Reigns his 3rd WSC Hardcore Championship reign. After the match, Brock Lesnar returned after a 2 year absence and manhandled Paul Heyman and The Usos, leading to the two facing each other in an Ambulance Match, which saw Reigns retain. After the match, Jon Moxley appeared, attacking recently retaining Reigns and putting him in the ambulance along with Lesnar, hinting a title shot for the championship. Then outta nowhere, Moxley hopped in the ambulance and drove it out of the stadium splashing into a river nearby, with Moxley, Reigns, and Lesnar still in it. Thankfully, Roman made it out and showed up for a contract signing to face in a "No Mercy Match" for the championship. Roman wanted to warn Moxley from signing it, but Moxley, the lunatic he is, signed it. Roman then wanted Moxley to go to his family and say that he loved them, because he was about to be killed. Roman then signed it, but Moxley still had a brawl with him before Lesnar and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin came out.

What might be the most important match of WSC, Roman and Moxley had such a fantastic match, almost killing each other. Biting ears off, Teeth yanked, ironing each other, rat traps, and then went outside out to cars and trains. the match ended with Moxley getting mangled inside of a red car and Roman driving into it. Then, Roman won.

Weeks later during a promo with The Bloodline, The Rock showed up after 2 years and tried to embrace with the four, but Reigns and The Usos attacked him shortly after. On August 1, 2022, Reigns became the longest reigning Hardcore Champion in WSC history.

Weeks later, it was then announced that Roman and Rock would have a match for the championship at WrestleMania Hollywood. On November 25, the first WrestleMania match started in terms of Roman vs Rock. Roman came out with The Bloodline (including newly added Solo Sikoa), where as Rock came down by himself. In the crowd were more members of the Anoa'i family, being Rikishi, Afa, and Roman's father, Sika. Their match starts of as normal, but it does surely go outside the ring to ringside. Reigns pulls out the steps to the announce table, but before doing anything, he turns to the crowd and talks trash to special guests, Jake Paul, Brandon Collins, and Mick Foley. Eventually, Rock plants a Rock Bottom to Reigns through the table. When Rock was about to win, The Usos and Sikoa appear to at least try and stop, but it wont work. Then, Rikishi, Afa, and Sika came from the crowd to tell them to "chill the F out". In the climax of the match, Sikoa got Rock up for Reigns so spear him. However, Rock ducked, and Sikoa get's speared. Jey then shoves Roman whilst yelling at him, but then Rock attacks the both. In the end of the match, Reigns goes up the ramp, and runs down for a "SuperSpear" to The Rock for the win.

### WrestleMania and Multiversal Champion (2023-present)

On March 19, The Fifth Deadly Games Match finally came, as it was announced months prior. The match included Reigns, Seth Rollins, Austin Theory, Ricochet, CM Punk, and Cody Rhodes. However, Nathan talked on the mic announcing one more guy in the Deadly Games. That being, the one and only Joker Jon Moxley! Interestingly, Nathan ment to invite the ordinary Jon Moxley, but looks like that didn't went to plan. During the match, AJ Styles attempted to cash in his Money in the Bank but got hit with a GTS by Punk before he could. Unfortunately for Reigns, Moxley got him ready to hit a Paradigm Shift, but all of a sudden Seth came and pushed the two off, and both went through the cell, eliminating them. Not to long after, Brock Lesnar came back in a Semi to try and steal the belt from the competitors. He went to grab the belt, but got hit by a Cross Rhodes from Cody, knocking him to the scaffolding. Cody then grabbed down the title and became our NEW WSC Hardcore Champion, ending the 351 day reign of Roman Reigns.

Things didnt go well after, as he lost again in a rematch against Rhodes, where Jimmy Uso would cost him the match. However, Reigns would fight one on one with The Undertaker for the WSC Multiversal Championship, however it was a casket match in hell in a cell. Kane tried to help him win and retain but he was destroyed by Solo Sikoa. Roman hit a spear and then put the Phenom into a casket to become the new WSC Multiversal Champion. This was the second time Undertaker was buried inside a casket (the last time The Fiend did when he locked in the Mandible Claw).

After brawling with Taker, Reigns would confront The Usos for failing to help the Tribal Chief, which ends with Reigns and Sikoa beating up Jimmy and Jey. Later, Nathan announced that Roman will defend his Multiversal title vs multiple competitors, one of them being Shrek, at WSC No Mercy. Reigns's match was the match after the Usos's match, where The Usos lost again to The Drio Gods., where it started off with just Roman and Shrek fighting, but every so often someone new shows up. First was Pennywise, followed by Michael Myers, Chucky, Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, and Predator. Roman ends up winning the match by pinning Shrek with help from Solo Sikoa once again.
