Ric Flair's insistence on wearing $20,000 robes. Triple H hitting people with sledgehammers. Cowboy Bob Orton's arm injury never healing. Some things in pro wrestling are just inexplicably awesome. Maybe we can add "SWAT Gear Wearing Roman Reigns" to that list. In the ring, he just looks like a bad ass action hero set to strike. Whether via Superman Punch, Spear or flying, seated kick, he's a weird (yet awesome) mix of The Rock meets Steven Seagal. Thus, it may be for the best that he's just stuck in this gear forever.
