Paul Heyman says Roman Reigns plays a special role for WWE
Roman Reigns is one of the biggest stars in WWE and had the greatest championship run in history. Paul Heyman recently mentioned how Roman plays a special role for the company.
Ever since Roman Reigns made his debut in WWE, it was clear that he was destined for success. Just one look at him, and it's easy to say he was cut from the same cloth as The Rock. The Stamford-based promotion was quick to push him into the main event spot almost immediately.
However, those plans were rejected by the fans who weren't buying into WWE's golden goose. However, after the company flipped the script and turned Reigns heel, the fans finally accepted him as the company's top star. For 1,316 days, Reigns dominated the promotion as Undisputed WWE Universal Champion and ushered in a prosperous record-breaking era in terms of all metrics.
Reigns recently appeared on Bloomberg alongside his Wiseman Paul Heyman, where he was asked how WWE attracts a female audience. Heyman gave a cheeky response that had the interviewer gushing.
"Well take a look at Roman Reigns," answered Heyman.

Disco Inferno says Roman Reigns doesn't need to face Jacob Fatu
Roman Reigns made a surprising return at WWE SummerSlam and attacked Solo Sikoa. He did the same thing again on SmackDown. However, when he tried to attack Solo again the following week, Jacob Fatu stopped him.
The Bloodline then took out the Original Tribal Chief with a powerbomb through the table. This made many fans excited at the chance to see Reigns and Fatu compete against each other.
Speaking on the Keepin' It 100 podcast, Disco Inferno addressed this by saying that not every dream match needs to happen as long as the storyline progresses forward.
"Bro, you guys are watching all these shows and thinking, 'Woah, that would be a great match'. I'm not watching the WWE programming to think of the matches that could come out of it. I'm watching for the progression of the storyline," Inferno said.
Reigns has not been seen on SmackDown since he was taken out by The Bloodline. It will be interesting to see how he will retaliate after this attack.
