You’re going to love it when Roman Reigns wins the WWE Universal Championship soon. You’ll love it because he rules. Here’s five reasons why Reigns is the best WWE has to offer.

Since Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns — the three members of The Shield that wreaked havoc over the WWE from late 2013 to after WrestleMania XXX in 2014 — each has become a different type of star in the company.

For Rollins, he established himself as the best of the group by aligning with The Authority, winning a Money in the Bank Ladder Match and the WWE World Championship at WrestleMania 31. Ambrose became the beloved Lunatic Fringe you see today with a surprising world title reign (after winning a MITB Ladder Match and then beating Rollins, too) along with a current run with the Intercontinental Championship.

As for Roman Reigns, he’s had the best run of any of them.

How so? Because Roman Reigns is the biggest star in WWE today. (Yes, even bigger than Zack Ryder or Mojo Rawley.)

To prove that The Big Dog is the top man in the company, we laid out a list of five reasons as to why nobody does it better than Roman Reigns in WWE today.

Reason No. 5 as to why Roman Reigns is the best in WWE: Because of his incredible shirts he wears to the ring

Have you seen Reigns’ latest shirt? It’s fantastic.

“From Ashes to Empire” makes absolutely no sense, but it’s wonderful anyway. Personally, I think it’s the red trim that really makes it pop. You see, because Reigns is going from nothing and he’s going to be a legacy as the WWE Universal Champion someday very soon.

Really makes you think, right?

“Roman Reigns’ new shirt is black with red trim and the Universal Championship title belt is … oh, man!”

(This only works for Roman Reigns of course. Why? Because John Cena is wearing the colors of the New York Knicks and he’ll always be closer to a title than they ever will be again, even when he’s 60 years old and can’t wrestle anymore.)
