During this time, he was named Defensive Player of the Year by the Pensacola News Journal.[1] He then attended Georgia Institute of Technology, where he was a member of the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets football team. He was a three-year starter beginning in his sophomore year and team captain, and in 2006 was named first-team All-Atlantic Coast Conference as a senior.[1] He made twenty-nine tackles for loss, including twelve sacks, the thirteenth best record in Georgia Techs history.[5] After going undrafted in the 2007 NFL Draft, he was signed by the Minnesota Vikings.[6] Upon being released by the Vikings, he was added to the Jacksonville Jaguars roster to provide depth at defensive end. In 2008, Anoai was signed by the Edmonton Eskimos and accepted a spot on the teams practice roster.[2][7] Wearing the number 99, Anoai played five games with the Eskimos, of which he started three.[7][8] He played just a single season, before being released in November.[7] World Wrestling Entertainmment/WWE[edit] Developmental territories (2010–2012)[edit] In July 2010, Anoai signed a developmental contract with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and was later assigned to their developmental territory Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW).[2] He debuted on September 9, 2010, using the ring name Roman Leakee, in a loss to Richie Steamboat in a singles match. Further losses to Idol Stevens and Wes Brisco ensued, before he gained his first win on September 21 over Fahd Rakman. He continued competing in FCW throughout the remainder of the year, wrestling mainly in tag team matches.[9] On the January 16, 2011, episode of FCW television, Leakee was a competitor in a 30-man Grand Royal, but was eliminated.[10] Later in 2011, Leakee formed an alliance with Donny Marlow and the pair unsuccessfully challenged Calvin Raines and Big E Langston for the FCW Florida Tag Team Championship on July 8.[11] In 2012, Leakee became a main eventer in singles competition, and he pinned Florida Heavyweight Champion Leo Kruger during a tag team match on the January 8 episode of FCW television.[12] On the February 5 episode of FCW television, he defeated Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins in a triple threat match to become the number one contender to the FCW Florida Heavyweight Championship.[13] He failed to win the championship when he lost to champion Kruger the following week.[14] Leakee later won the FCW Florida Tag Team Championship with Mike Dalton, before dropping it to CJ Parker and Jason Jordan. When WWE rebranded FCW as NXT Wrestling,[15] Anoai, with the new ring name of Roman Reigns, made his WWE NXT debut on the October 31, 2012, episode, defeating CJ Parker.[16] The Shield (2012–2014)[edit] Main article: The Shield (professional wrestling) Reigns made his main roster television debut on November 18, 2012, at the Survivor Series pay-per-view alongside Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins, assaulting Ryback during the triple threat main event for the WWE Championship, allowing CM Punk to retain the title.[17] The trio declared themselves The Shield and vowed to rally against injustice. They denied working for Punk, but routinely emerged from the crowd to attack Punks adversaries, including Ryback and WWE Tag Team Champions Team Hell No (Kane and Daniel Bryan).[18][19][20][21] This led to a six-man Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match at the TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs pay-per-view, in which Reigns, Ambrose, and Rollins defeated Team Hell No and Ryback in their debut match.[22] The Shield continued to aid Punk in January 2013, attacking both Ryback and The Rock.[23][24] On Raw on January 28, it was revealed that Punk and his manager Paul Heyman had been paying The Shield and Brad Maddox to work for them.[25] The Shield then quietly ended their association with Punk while beginning a feud with John Cena, Ryback, and Sheamus that led to a six-man tag match on February 17 at Elimination Chamber, which The Shield won.[26][27][28] The Shield had their first Raw match the following night, where they defeated Ryback, Sheamus, and Chris Jericho.[29] Sheamus then formed an alliance with Randy Orton and Big Show to face The Shield at WrestleMania 29, but The Shield emerged victorious in their first WrestleMania match.[30][31] The following night on Raw, The Shield attempted to attack The Undertaker but were stopped by Team Hell No.[32] This set up a six-man tag team match on the April 22 episode of Raw, which The Shield won.[33] On the May 13 episode of Raw, The Shields undefeated streak in televised six-man tag team matches ended in a disqualification loss in an elimination match against Cena, Kane and Bryan.[34] On May 19 at Extreme Rules, Reigns and Rollins defeated Team Hell No in a tag team tornado match to win the WWE Tag Team Championship.[35] They made their first televised title defense on the May 27 episode of Raw, defeating Team Hell No in a rematch.[36] On the June 14 episode of SmackDown, The Shields unpinned/unsubmitted streak in televised six-man tag team matches came to an end at the hands of Team Hell No and Randy Orton, when Daniel Bryan submitted Rollins.[37][38] Reigns and Rollins defeated Bryan and Orton at Payback to retain the WWE Tag Team Championship.[39] Further successful title defenses followed against The Usos on July 14 during the Money in the Bank pre-show and The Prime Time Players (Darren Young and Titus ONeil) at Night of Champions.[40][41] On the September 23 episode of Raw, Reigns was pinned for the first time while on the main roster courtesy of The Usos when the Shield participated in and lost an eleven-on-three handicap elimination match.[42] Reigns in November 2013 In August, The Shield began working for chief operating officer Triple H and The Authority.[43][44] On the October 14 episode of Raw, Reigns and Rollins lost the WWE Tag Team Championship to Cody Rhodes and Goldust in a No Disqualification match, following interference from Big Show.[45] At Hell in a Cell, Reigns and Rollins failed to regain the tag team title in a triple threat match.[46] Tension began to appear within The Shield, especially between Reigns and Ambrose, as Ambrose was the only member left with a championship.[47] At Survivor Series, Reigns was the sole survivor for his team in the traditional five-on-five elimination tag team match after eliminating four opponents.[48] After losing to Punk in a handicap match at TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs, Reigns defeated Punk in a singles match after a distraction from Ambrose on January 6, 2014, making him the only member of The Shield to have beaten Punk.[49] At the Royal Rumble pay-per-view, Reigns entered the Rumble match at #15, and set the record for most eliminations in a single Rumble with 12. He eliminated both his Shield teammates, and was the runner-up in the match after being eliminated by Batista.[50] The next night on Raw, The Shield competed in a six-man tag team match against Daniel Bryan, Sheamus, and John Cena, with all three members of the winning team qualifying to compete in the Elimination Chamber match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. The Shield lost the match via disqualification after The Wyatt Family interfered and attacked Cena, Bryan, and Sheamus. The Shield wanted revenge and a six-man tag for The Shield against The Wyatt Family at the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view was arranged, in which The Shield lost.[51] Despite more tension,[52] The Shield reconciled in March.[53] In March, The Shield began feuding with Kane, which turned all members of The Shield into faces (fan favorite characters).[54] Over the next few weeks, The Shield continued exchanging assaults with Kane, who was joined by the New Age Outlaws, leading to a match between the two teams at WrestleMania XXX, which The Shield won.[55] The feud with Kane also prompted The Shield to sever ties with Triple H, who reformed Evolution to counter them. The Shield defeated Evolution at both Extreme Rules and Payback.[56][57] When Batista left Evolution in June, Triple H initiated Plan B; this involved Rollins turning on The Shield and aligning himself with Triple H.[58] Singles Competition (2014–present)[edit] Reigns and Ambrose subsequently quietly disbanded, with Reigns using new entrance music.[59] On the June 16 episode of Raw, Reigns goaded Vickie Guerrero into adding him to the battle royal to qualify for a spot for the Money in the Bank ladder match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at Money in the Bank; he won by eliminating Rusev.[60] At Money in the Bank, Reigns failed to win the title.[61]. On the June 30 episode of Raw it was announced that Reigns would compete in a Fatal-four way for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at Battleground (2014). On Smackdown that week he saved fellow friend and former tag team partner Dean Ambrose from Randy Orton and former tag team partner Seth Rollins. Personal life[edit] Anoai is half-Samoan and half-Italian.[62] Both his father, Sika, and his brother, Matt, are professional wrestlers. As a member of the Anoai family, he is a cousin to fellow professional wrestlers Dwayne The Rock Johnson, Yokozuna, Rikishi Fatu, Umaga, and the Usos.[8][63] At the Georgia Institute of Technology, Anoai studied management.[1] Anoai is engaged to Galina Joelle Becker.[63] He has a daughter, Joelle, with whom he appeared in a public service announcement in June 2014.[64][65] In wrestling[edit] The Shield prepare to perform their triple powerbomb on Kane.
