Top 10 current WWE Superstars and their story behind getting into pro-wrestling

#5 Roman Reigns

Roman Reigns played for Georgia Tech

Despite being part of the Anoa’i family, Roman Reigns never really held any interest in becoming a professional wrestler. It was his ambition to play American Football, but he had a failed career in both the NFL and the CFL before turning to wrestling.

He then joined up with the WWE’s developmental program and was pushed quite rapidly into his role as the enforcer of The Shield and his career has only gone upwards since then.
