Roman Reigns: Daily Routine

Even after three pizzas post-SummerSlam, Roman shifts back into clean-eating mode like it’s second nature.

Roman Reigns’ story is as inspiring as it gets. Born into the legendary Anoaʻi wrestling family — which includes The Tonga Kid, Rikishi, Umaga, and The Rock — he was destined to become a wrestler from the start. Along his journey of making a name for himself in the ring, Reigns also overcame incredible odds and setbacks on his way to become the WWE champion.

Reigns, whose real name is Leati Joseph Anoa’i, started his professional wrestling career in 2010 in WWE’s developmental program, Florida Championship Wrestling. He quickly rose through the ranks and made his main roster debut in 2012 as part of the Shield, a dominant faction that wreaked havoc on WWE’s main roster.

Although fans were initially skeptical, Reigns’ achievements were undeniable. As of 2020, he had headlined WrestleMania four times, held various versions of the WWE world championships five times, and firmly established himself as a top-tier performer in the crowd’s eyes.
