In a recent appearance on the Sports Illustrated Media podcast, Reigns lavished praise on Heyman and Hayes. He disclosed that requested WWE to pair him up with the two veterans.

He stated that he could have pulled off his current character without Heyman, but he wanted him by his side.

Roman Reigns returned to WWE television at SummerSlam last year after taking a few months off to be with his family during the pandemic. The Tribal Chief attacked Braun Strowman and Bray Wyatt on the show, before winning the Universal Championship a week later at the Payback pay-per-view.

Roman Reigns on Paul Heyman’s influence

Roman Reigns recently stated that having Paul Heyman as part of his faction is a “great weapon” to have.

Reigns joined forces with Heyman on the SmackDown after his SummerSlam return. The Tribal Chief later added Jey and Jimmy Uso, The Usos. The Bloodline stable currently holds all the gold on the blue brand, as Reigns is the WWE Universal Champion and The Usos are the SmackDown Tag Team Champions.
