10 Things We Learned From Roman Reigns On 'Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast'

4. He Treats Every Match Like It's His Last

A recurring theme throughout the interview was Roman's awareness that every match could theoretically be his last. When discussing the recent announce table spot with Bray Wyatt (which took place shortly before the recording of the podcast), Reigns remarked that he was still suffering from it - having chipped his elbow and damaged one of his fingers. He also remarked that it could have been a lot worse, and that he wrestles this match with this notion in mind. In treating every bout like his final outing, he pushes himself each and every night. Whatever you make of Roman's in-ring ability, it's hard to accuse him of laziness or a lack of commitment. He genuinely does appear to give his all each time he steps between the ropes.
