Leati Joseph "Joe" Anoaʻi (born May 25, 1985) is an American professional wrestler, former professional Canadian football player, and a member of the Anoaʻi family. He is signed to WWE, where he performs under the ring name Roman Reigns on the Raw brand.
After playing collegiate football for Georgia Tech,[1] Anoaʻi started his professional football career with brief off-season stints with the Minnesota Vikings and Jacksonville Jaguars of the National Football League (NFL) in 2007.[7] He then played a full season for the Canadian Football League's Edmonton Eskimos in 2008 before his release and retirement from football.[8]
Anoaʻi then pursued a career in professional wrestling and was signed by WWE in 2010, reporting to their developmental territory Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW).[2] As Roman Reigns, he made his main roster debut in November 2012 alongside Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose as The Shield.[9] The trio teamed together until June 2014,[10] after which Reigns entered singles competition, and that same month he began headlining pay-per-views in world title contention.[11] In his WWE career, Reigns is a three-time WWE World Heavyweight Champion,[12] a one-time WWE Tag Team Champion (with Rollins), and was the 2015 Royal Rumble winner and the 2014 Superstar of the Year. He also tied the WWE record for most eliminations in a Survivor Series elimination match with four in the 2013 event,[13] and set the record for most eliminations in a Royal Rumble match with 12 in the 2014 event.[14]
Reigns has headlined numerous WWE pay-per-views including WrestleManias 31 and 32, with WWE intending him to be their next "face of the company". However, Reigns' ascendancy as a world title-chasing heroic character has been marked by critics' disapproval and hostile crowd reactions.
