10 Wrestlers Who Are ACTUALLY Safe In WWE

Vince McMahon has been been high as kite above a mountain on “The Big Dog” for the longest time. Roman Reigns was the chairman’s blue eyed boy, even if those blue eyes were achieved with contact lenses. Sadly for Roman, much of that time saw him roundly rejected by fans who wanted to see others in his spot.

Then Reigns decided to sit out the global pandemic, opting out of WrestleMania and a Goldberg feud that had been built on television, leaving WWE with only days to change course. Though his decision was understandable, there was speculation McMahon would finally lose patience with his pet project.

Not a bit of it. Instead, WWE finally turned “Your Tribal Chief,” heel and unlocked the latent charisma lurking beneath the rank, scripted babyface promos all along.

A string of stellar performances, menacing promos and a storyline that’s provided people with a reliable reason to tune in on Fridays have made Reigns not just WWE’s top guy and the face of the company but one of the best wrestlers in the world right now. In storyline Roman Reigns might be keeping one eye over his shoulder for a Paul Heyman betrayal but the real life Joe Anoa’i can rest easy knowing his position is secure.
