10 Wrestlers You Won't Believe Beat Roman Reigns

10. The Big Show

On the 2nd February 2015 episode of Raw, The Big Show became the first person to beat Roman Reigns in a one-on-one match.

This was in the thick of Reigns' first push as a singles star and the backlash that accompanied that. Roman was feuding with The Authority in the build-up to WrestleMania 31, which led to this match with their giant crony.

Show was looking to get his revenge, as the Big Dog had beaten him on the past week's episode of SmackDown. He achieved his goal with a little help from Reigns' old buddy, Seth Rollins, who interfered in the match on Show's behalf.

The decision to give Roman's first singles defeat to The Big Show is a bit of a baffling one. Surely a younger star like Rollins would have benefitted more from this accolade, or maybe even someone completely separate from The Authority storyline.

That being said, Big Show also handed Reigns' great rival Brock Lesnar his first pinfall loss, so maybe WWE were going for some sort of weird symmetry. Or perhaps we're being massively generous to them and this was all a coincidence.
