Roman Reigns’ Best WWE Moments Of 2021

In my opinion, Roman Reigns is the best wrestler of 2020-21 and hopefully for many upcoming year as well.

Reigns has held the WWE Universal Title for more than 467 days and still counting. He won the title by defeating previous champion "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman, who Reigns pinned, in a No Holds Barred Triple Threat match at Payback on August 30, 2020, in Orlando, Florida.

Roman Reigns is now only behind Brock Lesnar who claims to be the longest single-reigning WWE Universal champion at 503 days.

Since winning the Universal Title at Payback, Reigns had defended the title against several Top stars in WWE. His first title defense came against his cousin Jey Uso at Clash Of Champion. In his second championship defense at the Friday Night SmackDown Season 2 Premiere, Reigns defeated Braun Strowman by technical submission to retain the title.

Reigns successfully defended the title against Owens in a TLC match at TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs on December 20 and a Last Man Standing match at the Royal Rumble on January 31, 2021, respectively. Reigns then retained his title against Daniel Bryan at both the Elimination Chamber and Fastlane events.

In the main event of night 2 of WrestleMania 37 on April 11, Reigns defeated Bryan and Edge in a triple threat match to retain the Universal Championship after assistance from Jey. Reigns' next challenger for the championship was Cesaro, whom Reigns defeated at WrestleMania Backlash on May 16.

Reigns would once again defend the title against Edge at Money in the Bank, where Reigns retained with the assistance of Seth Rollins. After the match, Reigns was confronted by a returning John Cena. Over the following weeks, Cena challenged Reigns for a title match at SummerSlam, and after initially rejecting Cena's challenge, a match was made official for the two at the event. At the event, Reigns defeated Cena to retain the title.

Shortly after, Reigns would begin feuding with Finn Bálor. The two would eventually face each other for the Universal Championship on the September 3 episode of Smackdown but Reigns would retain the title following interference from The Usos.

At Extreme Rules, Reigns once again defeated Finn Balor as "The Demon". On October 21, at Crown Jewel, Reigns successfully defended his title against Brock Lesnar with the help of his cousins The Usos.

For the second time, Reigns will make the title defense against Brock Lesnar at WWE Day 1 which drops on January 1, 2022.
