Roman Reigns is one of the most decorated superstars in WWE history. Since debuting as the Shield's enforcer in 2012 Survivor Series, Roman has achieved a lot in WWE. The Big Dog has a resume that speaks volumes.

His various accolades in WWE include 3 reigns as the WWE champion, winning the 2015 Royal Rumble, defeating the Undertaker at Wrestlemania and numerous other title wins. He is the reigning Universal champion.

However, there are some honors even the big dog could not achieve. This list will be taking a look at those honors that has eluded the Samoan superstar. Defunct titles and titles exclusive to other brands are not included in this list.


#4 RAW tag team championship

Roman Reigns is a grand slam champion. He captured the WWE tag team championship with Seth Rollins in 2013. Now, the WWE tag team championship is defunct and is replaced by brand-exclusive tag team championships. RAW has RAW tag team championship whereas SmackDown Live has SD tag team championship.

Roman Reigns has had a shot at RAW tag team titles when he and Seth Rollins took on then RAW tag team champions, Sheamus and Cesaro. However, they lost that match by DQ when Jason Jordan attacked Cesaro.

The Big Dog has plenty of time to capture the red brand's tag team championships.

#3 NXT championship

It is hard to believe that Roman Reigns was once a part of the NXT roster. He had a small run in NXT. He made his debut in NXT on October 2012 and wrestled his last NXT match on December of the same year.

Seth Rollins was the then reigning NXT champion. Three weeks after his NXT debut, Roman Reigns made his main roster debut during Survivor Series 2012, helping CM Punk retain his WWE championship against John Cena and Ryback.

Roman Reigns never had a chance to win the NXT championship. But one cannot predict if he would go back to NXT to uncheck the gold belt from his bucket list.

#2 Money in the bank contract

Roman Reigns could compete only once for the money in the bank briefcase - in 2015. But he was stopped by Bray Wyatt in his path to snatch the golden briefcase.

In 2013, he was in the pre-show. In 2014, he was in the WWE world Heavyweight championship match. In 2016, he was defending his WWE world Heavyweight Championship against Seth Rollins. In 2017, Money in the Bank was a SmackDown exclusive pay per view and in 2018, he could not even qualify for the ladder match.

As the top babyface of the company, Roman Reigns may not need the briefcase. But it definitely would be one thing he would like to cross off his to-do list.

#1. WWE King of the Ring

In the 1990s, King of the Ring was one of the most prestigious tournaments in WWE. Legends like Stone Cold, Bret Hart, Triple H, Edge, and Kurt Angle won the tournament and treated it as a coveted achievement.

Although it is not as prestigious now as it was back then, it is still a big achievement. The tournament was only held once after Roman Reigns made his WWE debut. It was in 2015 and Wade Barrett was crowned the winner.

There are talks of WWE trying to revive the tournament in the near future. If it happens, can the big dog become the king?
