Transcript

I'm WWE Superstar Roman Reigns,

and today I'm going undercover on the Internet.

It's actually me.

First up, IMDB.

Trademark. There's 9 of 'em.

Ring entrance through the crowd. The Shield, yes, sir.

Finishing Moves, Superman Punch, Spear, Powerbomb.

I don't know if we can put Powerbomb in there.

I like to Powerbomb people. It's invigorating.

It feels good to just slam on their upper neck,

you know, lower back.

But I don't know if we can call that a finishing move.

Primal Roar. Yeah.

I do that.

Calm, often monotone voice.

You tell me.

Protective vest. It's not protective at all.

It literally is just denim. That's all it is.

It's a denim button-up.

It's a Canadian tuxedo with no sleeves.

Wet hair.

Yeah.

Not right now, but when I work, yes.

Catchphrase: Believe that!

That's kind of old. Eh.

Eh.

Catchphrase: This is my yard.

Yeah, that still goes. I still run WWE everyday.

I'd say it's pretty good.

Nine-nine trademarks, that's not bad.

Next: Quora.

Seriously, it's actually me.

What is Roman Reigns' morning daily life like?

Well, it just depends if I'm on the road or if I'm at home.

If I'm at home, usually I'll take my daughter to school.

And then I'll work into some breakfast and maybe a workout.

If I'm on the road, it's a little bit slower,

because usually we don't get in until late night.

So sleeping in is what we'll say for the road.

Who is better, Roman Reigns or John Cena?

I beat him. I guess there's no need to argue here.

Because I beat him.

He's great. He's really good, but I beat him.

Boom!

Why do wrestling fans hate Roman Reigns?

Uh, hate.

It's a-it's such, like, a fickle word.

I don't think they hate.

I think some wrestling fans like to be negative

and they like to exorcize their demons.

Why not, you know, exorcize them against a stud like me?

I can handle it, I got broad shoulders.

Reddit.

Is it fair to say that Roman Reigns has the best dives

of any Shield member?

I think you can say it again.

I think you should say it again.

I think it's true. It's the most impressive.

I'm by far the biggest and heaviest, and I jump higher.

I'll put that on record right now.

Tweet this, send it out to the world.

Roman Reigns has the most hops in the Shield.

Point blank, period.

Reply.

Do you want to see a program between Rock

and Roman Reigns?

If it's done right, you know, I think obviously, you know,

with the star that he is, you know,

where he is in his career, it would be huge.

It would be great. But, you know,

we're family, so it has to-it has to make sense.

And free the guy up. Can we get him a break?

Can he take a day off?

If he can get a week off, we might be able to make it happen

so, doubtful.

Your favorite Roman Reigns feud?

It's weird to ask me that. I don't know.

That's all I got for you.

What is Roman Reigns' Best Match?

I'm pretty proud of, you know, the majority of them.

It's special because it wasn't a title match.

It wasn't like this critical stepping stone for me,

but I just enjoyed it and I did learn a lot from them.

It was with the Big Show. It was a last man standing match.

It was in Chicago, and it was one of those matches

that I think the expectations were low,

and we just, we knocked it out of the park.

We had Chicago going nuts and we tore that place apart.

So that's one that I think a lot of people wouldn't think of

that I do hold dearly to me, and it's cool to be able

to be there with a giant too.

Considering the amount of Samoan wrestlers,

how popular is wrestling in Samoa?

It's definitely one of the upper entertainment,

you know, genres.

I think the physicality within our culture

speaks for itself.

You know, within rugby, we're very, very talented in rugby.

And I think there's some crazy like percentage

of Samoan athletes that are actually professionals,

which is like unprecedented.

So yeah, I think whether it's popular or not,

we make some of the best in the world.

So, we're doing something right.

Instagram.

Okay, I have to know. What do y'all put in your hair

that makes it look so wet. Does it bother you?

No, it doesn't bother me, I put it in my hair.

I'm the one that puts it in there.

So it's just leave-in conditioner

all different types of brands.

I just grab whatever looks cool at the time.

So yeah, just some leave-in conditioner and some water.

And let it fly. Submit.

Roman, what do you think about Rowan's attack on you?

Bullshit. I mean, come on.

You can jump me in the ring.

We've done this routine, but there's a template set

for picking fights in WWE.

If you're going to try to run me over with a forklift, guy?

What kind of crap is that? I got a lot of kids too, man.

Think about that next time.

Just challenge, open challenge me and I'll say yes.

I'm here. I'm booked.

I'm going to wrestle anyways so why not be you?

Try to kill me.

Why you not fight for the universal championship?

Stay tuned.

Twitter.

So, when Roman Reigns is attacking The Rock,

does he think about how he is going to explain

beating up his cousin at the family reunions?

[sighs] Sometimes, you have a job to do

and when you're new at your job, you just do your job.

But now, Dwayne was cool, uh.

It was really neat to be able to work with him

at a time where he was coming back,

and to just be where he was at that point.

But yeah. Makes for an awkward reunion for sure.

But he's been torturing me with the workout, so he's up.

He's winning the game right now. Reply.

Can Roman Reigns just skip to the movie-making portion

of his career? Hashtag RAW.

How you gonna hashtag RAW after that?

You gonna tell me to leave my company

and then hashtag us for that?

You know, if there is a movie-making portion of my career,

I think that's a huge blessing.

But right now, still being a young athlete,

mid-range young athlete I'll say,

I still enjoy being in the ring, so I want to ride

until the wheels fall off, and then hopefully,

there is that acting portion of my career. Hopefully.

Why didn't we see Roman Reigns in any title match

after he came back from leukemia, and what do you think,

when will we see him in a title match?

So this is kinda something a lot of people complain about,

is me being in title matches.

You know, for me, just coming back, different perspective,

and for me, kind of participation is somewhat cool enough

for now, I guess. But I just enjoy being out here.

Whether there's a title on the line or not,

I just enjoy being in that ring and being able

to be healthy enough to do my thing.

So when the time's right, we'll get back in

to the title picture, but right now,

I'm just enjoying myself. Don't rush me, man.

Would Roman Reigns play Jason Momoa in a Jason Momoa movie,

or would Jason Momoa play Roman Reigns

in a Roman Reigns movie? Thoughts?

That's like a weird dimension or something like that.

But yes, I'd totally be into it.

I don't know the man personally, but from what I've seen,

he seems like a stellar dude, so I would definitely

be just completely honored to be able to portray his story

and vice versa. That'd be cool.

I think it's a pretty obvious look, so I think

that would definitely be a great option

if I'm able to have a movie about myself as well.

Idris Elba, Jason Statham, The Rock, Roman Reigns,

all in one movie?

It's called Hobbs and Shaw, and you can go see it today.

Please. It's good movie. It's fun.

And as you can see, lot of studs.

Post. [whistle]

Thank you, Internet, for all your questions. It's been fun.

This is WWE Superstar Roman Reigns, signing off.
