Roman Reigns To Make Big Changes Starting At Clash Of Champions

Roman Reigns To Make Big Changes Starting At Clash Of Champions

In a move that many feel is long overdue, Roman Reigns plans to ditch his SWAT tactical vest, which he has worn since debuting as part of The Shield in 2012. He would reveal this while talking to members of the Mania Club Facebook group, during a Zoom call to raise money for Connors Cure.

I’m not going to go out there in trunks. However, if you watch me this Sunday, you’ll probably see me with my shirt off. That’s the only change I’m making. I’m not perfect or a bodybuilder. But I feel confident to go out there and be a scary-looking athlete. Ever since I entered the wrestling business, I did not want my outfit to become a talking point. I’ve always felt like the superstar and not just a costume guy.Roman Reigns

Reigns would also confirm he will also be getting new entrance music, having taken over The Shield’s theme when the trio disbanded in 2014. However, the change isn’t coming immediately, as he is waiting for the right time.

There’s a lot more to it than just me creating my own music. It requires me to go through a lot of channels. You have to understand I’m not automatically a bad guy now. You’ve seen it in gradual steps. You’ve seen layers of that so far, I want all the nuances to add up. As a full-time performer, I have to keep things fresh and do something new every week. That’s why we have decided to save the new music. And hopefully down the line, once more drastic things happen, and the story unfolds, you’ll hear it.Roman Reigns

Reigns is set to defend the Universal Championship against his real-life cousin Jey Uso at this Sunday’s Clash of Champions pay-per-view. The tag team specialist won a fatal four-way match to become the #1 contender on a recent SmackDown, and it’s expected Reigns ruthlessly beating down his family member will be used to help further establish him as a heel.
