One of the best things to happen in WWE in the past few years is the emergence of a heel Roman Reigns. While the five-time World Champion has been the company's top star for nearly seven years now, it wasn't until recently that fans started accepting him as such.
After a lengthy absence of nearly five months, Reigns returned to WWE at SummerSlam 2020 as a heel and laid out The Fiend and Braun Strowman. A week later at WWE Payback, he defeated both of the above-mentioned Superstars to become the Universal Champion.

However, not all WWE fans were happy with The Fiend losing the title so quickly. One fan went as far as calling The Tribal Chief "overrated" and stated that the rapid title changes had impacted the belt's prestige. This comment caught Reigns' attention and he hit back with a fiery response.
Only reason I’m down your throat, is because you keep your mouth open. I’m the best performer of this generation period and the title is finally in the right hands for it to hold true value. https://t.co/E7PzVUP20D
Roman Reigns went on to defend the Universal Championship against Edge and Daniel Bryan in his fifth WWE WrestleMania main event.

Ali's love for pro wrestling dates back to when Randy Orton won a Battle Royal to become the #1 Contender for the World Heavyweight Championship at SummerSlam 2004. His current favorite wrestler is Cody Rhodes because he's the ultimate throwback babyface. He believes Rhodes has the Surfer Sting's passion, Bret Hart's prop-gifting schtick, a catchy theme like Hogan's, and a kid-friendly demeanor akin to John Cena's.
When he is not doing research for his articles on Google or catching up with the latest in pro wrestling, Ali can be found honing his Data Science and AI skills as he strives to get back into tech in the near future.
