Roman Reigns can be considered one of the biggest draws in the WWE today, with years spent building a young Samoan rookie debuting in 2012 in NXT into the ever dominating and record-breaking title holder, The Tribal Chief.
Reigns underwent a huge gimmick change debuting his current persona at WWE SummerSlam 2020 and taking the WWE by storm laying a path of destruction en route to becoming a 700+ days reigning champion and putting down Superstars like John Cena, Brock Lesnar, Goldberg, Braun Strowman and Edge to name a few.
Gotta believe it to achieve it. https://t.co/huIZb2LAkT

With his recent victory over the Scottish Warrior Drew McIntyre at WWE Clash at the Castle, Roman marches forward-looking to new challenges from WWE Superstars he is yet to step in the ring with. Here are the Top 5 WWE Superstars Reigns is yet to battle inside the squared circle:
1. Johnny Gargano
The Ace of NXT and now a resident of Monday Night RAW, the recently returned Johnny Gargano could be an excellent and fresh opponent for The Tribal Chief Roman Reigns for a match.
Considering his in-ring prowess against the brute strength of the current Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, it would surely turn into an instant classic showdown between two of the highly talented Superstars of this generation.
2. Has Roman Reigns faced Omos?
The giant behemoth Omos has been known to brutally decimate his opponents considering the size and strength of the 7-foot-tall heavyweight Superstar.
Roman Reigns may have beaten some of the best in the business but is yet to encounter the titan tower in Omos inside the squared circle. Even with The Bloodline by his side, it will be a tall order for Reigns to live up to in his quest to put down the gigantic Omos in a wrestling match.
3. Has Roman Reigns faced Veer Mahaan?
The Lion of India, Veer Mahaan was hyped for weeks and weeks as a brutal force heading towards the WWE and lived very well up to his word when he finally debuted on Monday Night RAW, right after WrestleMania 38.
Mahaan’s unmatched strength, fearing presence, and power makes him a credible opponent for the stature of Roman Reigns leading to a mega showdown between these two heavyweights for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.
4. Karrion Kross
From the moment Karrion Kross reemerged back into the WWE back in August 2022 with his wife Scarlett Bordeaux, he was immediately inserted into the Undisputed Title picture involving the champion Roman Reigns and then challenger Drew McIntyre being a looming force in the weeks leading up to WWE Clash at the Castle.
Kross even sat ringside for their match in Cardiff and even had a little interaction with McIntyre. With Drew out of the way, Kross could finally grab his opportunity and challenge Roman Reigns in a first time-ever match for the Undisputed WWE Universal Title at any major WWE pay-per-view.
5. Cody Rhodes

The American Nightmare Cody Rhodes made it clear that he wants to fulfill his father’s dreams of becoming a world champion in the WWE right after he resurfaced back into the company at Wrestlemania 38.
With Rhodes currently recovering from his torn pec injury, his grand return could happen as a surprise entrant in the Royal Rumble match next year winning the over-the-tope-rope battle royal, setting up a huge dream match with Roman Reigns for the championship on one of the two nights of WrestleMania 39.
Roman and Cody have faced each other in tag team matches before. However, they are yet to go one-on-one in a WWE ring.
