Roman Reigns is currently one of the biggest names in the wrestling industry and the current flag bearer of WWE. Reigns has enjoyed success and fame similar to many top stars such as John Cena, Hulk Hogan, and The Rock during his stint with the company.

Reigns comes from a prestigious wrestling family that has given us massive Superstars such as Yokozuna, Rikishi, The Usos, and The Rock, among others. However, many fans may not be aware of the fact that Reigns’ own brother once used to perform for WWE too.

Rosey, Reigns brother, made his WWE debut in July 2002 as part of a villainous faction known as the 3-Minute Warning. Along with Jamal, Rosey would attack tag teams and other wrestlers on Eric Bishoff's orders.

A year later, Rosey teamed up with The Hurricane to form a new faction called "Rosey, the Super Hero in Training" (the S.H.I.T.). The duo became the WWE World Tag Team Champions once during their time together. After the two Superstars got some screen time, WWE hinted at a return of the 3-Minute Warning in 2006. However, Rosey was released from his contract the same year and the reunion never happened.

Rosey then competed on the independent circuit for some time, but he started to have some heart problems that hindered his activity. In 2014, he was hospitalized due to congestive heart failure and atrial fibrillation. He passed away in April 2017 due to congestive heart failure.

Reigns paid tribute to his brother following his death and have fought health battles of his own while continuing to entertain the WWE Universe.
