5 Takeaways from WWE Backstage (February 4th, 2020)

#3 Reliving The Undertaker vs. Roman Reigns from WrestleMania 33 in 2017

One of the biggest matches of Roman Reigns' career was revisited.

A match from the past is often revisited on Backstage, and this week delved into the main event match at WrestleMania 33 between The Undertaker and Roman Reigns. Reigns reflected on the match, saying that "when I found out the news (that he'd be facing Undertaker), it was kind of a mixed bag of emotions."

He said that there's "nothing like seeing it (Undertaker's entrance) at WrestleMania" and that "the respect everyone has (for 'Taker) makes it a huge moment." Reigns also felt that "everybody should want to have that moment with him" because "it was an honor" for him to have it.

Reigns also pointed to the moment after he won where he raised his arms in the entrance way. He said that "the hardest part of it all is I almost look sad" because after beating the Deadman, "it felt like he was retiring and for me to walk away from that it was a lot heavier than I anticipated."

The Big Dog also revealed that the 15 minutes of booing on RAW after he thwarted 'Taker was "by far the coolest moment of my career." The booing "just shows the respect they had for Undertaker." He also added that "you don't usually want to be on the other end of those chants but I felt like I owned it for those 10-15 minutes."
