There has been a lot of talk of Roman Reigns' heritage over the past few years, especially since it was confirmed that The Rock and Reigns are not actually blood relatives. Roman Reigns is the real cousin of both The Usos and Umaga whilst his father who's called Sika was one half of The Wild Samoans.

Roman Reigns brother Rosey was also once part of WWE and was better known as part of 3-Minute Warning, Rosey sadly passed away back in 2017. Reigns family tree has become well known, but WWE has overlooked the fact that Reigns is also half Italian.

Reigns mother Patricia is Italian, but since his father is a WWE Hall of Famer, his Samoan heritage has become the main talking point in his career.

Reigns is covered in Samoan tattoos which show how proud he is of his family's heritage, and only recently revealed an extension to his sleeve tattoos which goes down his back - a tattoo that he has had drawn during his time away from WWE.
