== Roman Reigns’ 1316 day reign as Wikipedia Page. ==


Roman Reigns’ Universal Title reign feels similar to the Undertakers’ streak, am I believe it should have it’s own page.

I check pages listed in [[:Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting]] to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for [[User:AnomieBOT/docs/OrphanReferenceFixer|orphaned references]] in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of [[:Joe Anoaʻi]]'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for ''this'' article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

[[:Joe Anoa&#39;i]] → {{no redirect|Roman Reigns}} – Despite his football career, I think his WWE career is far more popular, so the common name to go by should be "Roman Reigns", the character that debuted on WWE's pay-per-view and also participates on internationally streamed television programmes Raw, SmackDown and NXT. Google News shows "Roman Reigns" -> 411 results, "Leakee" -> 3 results, "Joe Anoa'i" -> 1 result, "Leati Joseph Anoa'i" (real name)-> 1 result.

Should the three-man assisted powerbomb be added to his list of finishers? It was the iconic finishing move of the Shield, and he did the heavy lifting back then. [[User:Deltopia|Deltopia]] ([[User talk:Deltopia|talk]]) 01:30, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

== In wrestling ==
Reigns has been using Corner and Jumping clothesline which creates a variation of Clothesline and I think 'Moment of Silence' should be removed because he doesn't use this finisher and he only uses Spear. <small><span class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Yveshe|Yveshe]] ([[User talk:Yveshe|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Yveshe|contribs]]) 06:48, 14 February 2015 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
*{{ping|Yveshe}} - Moment of Silence was his NXT finisher. We do not censor it even if it is now only a signature on the WWE main roster. Also, the rest of his clotheslines need four [[WP:PW/RS|reliable sources]] saying he did the move, one one explicit reliable source saying that it is a signature. [[User:Starship.paint|'''starship''']][[Special:Contributions/Starship.paint|'''.paint''']] '''[[User talk:Starship.paint|<font color="#000000">~ ¡<font color="#E62617">Olé</font>!</font>]]''' 07:53, 14 February 2015 (UTC)

Makes sense but he has been using Corner and Jumping clotheslines multiple times in his matches and they're are signature moves which creates a variation of Clotheslines because he has Leaping, Corner and Jumping. If you want a source I can just tell you that I watched his matches on YouTube and he has been using those two signatures multiple times since he returned from injury and even before he was inuried he used those two moves a lot. <small>—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Yveshe|Yveshe]] ([[User talk:Yveshe|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Yveshe|contribs]])</small>
*{{ping|Yveshe}} - Leaping and Jumping are the same thing! Don't confuse them with (top rope/diving/flying) which are all the same too. We can't use your [[WP:OR|original research]] from YouTube. You need to go to [[WP:PW/RS]], click on that '''Click here''', and search for "corner clothesline". Come back the links of four different instances he used that move, and I'll add it in for you.

1. http://www.wrestleview.com/wwe-wrestling-results/wwe-smackdown-results/52364-wwe-smackdown-results-1-2-15-reigns-vs-rusev - Go down below and you'll see "Roman Reigns vs. Rusev w/ Lana" and after the first commercial break, read the 2nd paragraph and you'll see "Reigns quickly clotheslines him in the corner"=Corner clothesline.

2. http://www.wrestleview.com/wwe-wrestling-results/wwe-raw-results/52972-wwe-raw-results-2-9-15-live-results-from-columbus - The first match on this date on Raw was "Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan vs. Big Show and Kane", on the 11th line after the dot you'll see (and continuing read to 12th line) "Reigns clotheslines him in the corner"=Corner clothesline.

3. http://www.wrestleview.com/wwe-wrestling-results/wwe-raw-results/50648-wwe-raw-results-9-8-14-live-results-from-baltimore - Go down below to the last match at the last "-Commercial Break-" and at 2nd paragraph, end of the 2nd line, you'll read "Reigns clotheslines him in the corner".=Corner clothesline.

I found at least three links and I hope it's proven enough so you could kindly add 'Corner clothesline' and since you said that Leaping is the same as Jumping so I guess it's irrelevant. I have another urgent request about Batista's signature moves that I'd also like you to check out because there's a mistake on one of the moves, a missing move from the 'Powerslam' variations and another missing signature move. And since I posted this request about a month ago about Batista's moves and I haven't got any answer, I think you're the only available person to check it out @starship.paint <small><span class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Yveshe|Yveshe]] ([[User talk:Yveshe|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Yveshe|contribs]]) 19:31, 15 February 2015 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

I also remember few days ago (probably a month ago) That the "Tilt a Whirl slam" and the "Fireman's carry flapjack" were added but removed and from the counts I counted Roman's moveset in his matches since he returned from injury, he used at least four or five times the "Tilt a Whirl slam" and I'd like if you can add it back to his Signature moves please?

== The Persona & Reception Section ==
Is it me, or does that section seem to be a bit much? I'm not saying get rid of the section, but this section takes up about half the page! In doing a spot check of his contemporaries' pages, only Ryback has a similar section, and it is much more succinct.[[User:HubcapD|HubcapD]] ([[User talk:HubcapD|talk]]) 07:01, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
*{{ping|HubcapD}} - these kinds of sections are a work in progress. Some wrestlers receive very notable receptions, and we are beginning to include them in those articles. We just started with Ryback, now Reigns, certainly [[John Cena]] and [[Hulk Hogan]] will be forefront candidates for these sections. There are differences between Ryback and Reigns' sections though: Reigns' one talks about his character in wrestling as well - that contributes about over 150 words. Reigns' one also has those quotes which also contribute about 150 words. Furthermore, Reigns has two very distinguishing incidents on his reception: Royal Rumble 2014 (as the bad guy cheered) and Royal Rumble 2015 (as the good guy booed). I gave it a re-read, but it's not very easy to summarize. There are many different points (1. John Cena comparisions 2. limited moveset 3. poor character 4. forced promo delivery 5. pushed too hard, too soon and more) I'll see what I can do.
*I trimmed off about a 100 words and rearranged stuff such that similar stuff was put together. I'm not sure how much more could be summarized.

{{outdent}} {{re|Dannys-777}} - I made a mass restoral of Danny's [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Roman_Reigns&diff=654265017&oldid=654250423 removals]. None of the removals were commentators praising Reigns, many of the removals were criticisms. Some removals seemed to me to be whitewashing - CM Punk saying Reigns was meant to be put over as strong was not a criticism. "Accusations of the WWE rigging" was not a criticism either, and that's quoted from the source. The final 3 being booed of the 2014 Rumble was gone as well. Everything removed was reliably sourced. May I point you to [[WP:WELLKNOWN]]. Roman Reigns is assuredly well known. <font color=green>In the case of public figures, '''there will be a multitude of reliable published sources, and BLPs should simply document what these sources say.''' If an allegation or incident is noteworthy, relevant, and well documented, it belongs in the article – '''even if it is negative''' and the subject dislikes all mention of it. If you cannot find multiple reliable third-party sources documenting the allegation or incident, leave it out.</font> Criticism of Reigns (and his character) is well documented - and has occurred in virtually every industry specific reliable source in [[WP:PW/RS]] - except Pro Wrestling Illustrated, which is not readily available online - and even mainstream sources like TV.com. Danny - perhaps we could discuss, sentence by sentence, what to include and what not to include. Though, Whipwreck's comments are especially appropriate, given that Reigns' said that no wrestler has criticized him. [[User:Starship.paint|'''starship''']][[Special:Contributions/Starship.paint|'''.paint''']] '''[[User talk:Starship.paint|<font color="#000000">~ ¡<font color="#E62617">Olé</font>!</font>]]''' 02:28, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
*{{ping|Starship.paint}} Criticism of Reigns is fine, and was suitably addressed in the changes that I made. I mentioned in the original debate regarding this section that I was worried it would just turn into a soapbox for posting negative articles and viewpoints in a way that contradicts [[WP:BALASPS]]. The section doesn't need article after article listing the performer's faults. It wasn't 'whitewashing' so much as providing a more balanced viewpoint. Yes, the articles included are all sourced but that isn't the issue at all, I could probably find a multitude of negative reviews about a movie I dislike for example but that doesn't mean they all need to be posted. It's especially relevant in this case as the majority of criticism seemed to be centered around the assumption that Reigns would win the [[WWE World Heavyweight Championship]] at [[WrestleMania 31]], which didn't happen. It's absolutely not necessary to have so much content in that section, especially when the vast majority of that content represents only one viewpoint. You may dislike Reigns, you may feel that the level of criticism posted on this section is warranted but this is supposed to be an encyclopedia, not a wrestling forum. The fact is that the article as it stands violates [[WP:NPOV]]. [[User:Dannys-777|Dannys-777]] ([[User talk:Dannys-777|talk]]) 05:58, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

*{{re|Dannys-777}} - Forgive me, I have much to address.
:*Per [[WP:BALANCE]] - <font color=green>Neutrality assigns weight to viewpoints in proportion to their prominence.</font> even per WP:BALASPS which you quoted, <font color=green>treat each aspect with a weight appropriate to the weight of that aspect in the body of reliable sources on the subject.</font> When you said <font color=blue>It wasn't 'whitewashing' so much as providing a more balanced viewpoint.</font> - Wikipedia doesn't give 50% positive and 50% negative - that is [[false balance]] ([[WP:GEVAL]]). You need to understand - if the majority of RS are criticizing Reigns, Wikipedia is going to reflect that majority. For example, I can point you to the [[Gamergate controversy]] article. This article is an issue with two sides. But the majority of RS favours one side (the side that says Gamergate is about misogynistic attacks) so that article favours that side. Similarly, the majority of RS are skewed negatively towards Reigns presently. When he was with the Shield, the RS were praising Reigns, that's why there's also positive descriptions of him.
:*You say that <font color=blue>the vast majority of that content represents only one viewpoint</font>. What viewpoint is that? Is there a single unifying viewpoint? I don't think so. Whipwreck said Reigns was like "John Cena". That's different from "forced promo delivery". That's different from "body language and facial expressions". That's different from "lacked an identity". Where's the unifying viewpoint? Also, "accusations of WWE vote-rigging", or "look "really, really strong"", or "expressed their displeasure at the final three wrestlers left" - are not viewpoints.
:*You say that <font color=blue>majority of criticism seemed to be centered around the assumption that Reigns would win ...</font> Not really. "in-ring work is decent" was in August 2014. "forced promo delivery" was in November 2014. Reigns hadn't won the Rumble yet. "body language" was regarding Reigns as a "top babyface". Who main-evented the post-Mania ''Raw''? It was Reigns. He's still a top babyface, even if he is not champion. [[User:Starship.paint|'''starship''']][[Special:Contributions/Starship.paint|'''.paint''']] '''[[User talk:Starship.paint|<font color="#000000">~ ¡<font color="#E62617">Olé</font>!</font>]]''' 12:49, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

:::{{ping|Starship.paint}} Yes, clearly much of the RS critique has been negative, but not all of it. For example, this section includes a negative comment by Mikey Whipwreck but omits a favorable comment by a much more relevant wrestling personality in Chris Jericho. It mentions how Reigns 'almost won' an award for being overrated, is that really encyclopedic content? It mentions baseless accusations of vote rigging for an award that Reigns won (which were proved to be inaccurate by numerous RS) - it would be fine to comment that the win was a 'surprise', but the way it's currently worded is a clear breach of [[WP:NPOV]], the section is clearly written with the intention (even if it's just a subconscious intention) of portraying Reigns in a bad light. Again, you may feel negatively about Reigns and that such a multitude of criticism is warranted, but a lot of the content in that section is not necessary from an encyclopedic standpoint. I'm fully aware of false balance, all the relevant criticisms were still included in the changes that I made - I feel that the changes accurately reflected the level of criticism toward Reigns without appearing to try and influence the reader that Reigns is a 'bad' wrestler. [[User:Dannys-777|Dannys-777]] ([[User talk:Dannys-777|talk]]) 21:22, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
*{{re|Dannys-777}} Regarding "vote-rigging", the sentence could definitely be worded better. My point about the "vote-rigging" is that it garnered surprise ''to the point that'' there were such accusations. It's a higher level. But I get your point - we should be stressing '''more''' that reports debunked these accusations. Perhaps we could write the Observer and Insider debunked, not sure which other RS did. '''I have reworded'''.
*Whipwreck is a former ECW Champion and one of only four ECW Triple Crown Champions. I'm not sure which Jericho comment you are referring to, please post it here. I can't profess to know every single comment made about Reigns by every single wrestler. Jericho is contracted to WWE though, he's wrestled at house shows in Jan/Feb/Mar '15. It's not as if we don't have comments by other WWE employees - I added the HHH, Heyman and Henry comments, two of which are positive. Whipwreck being non-WWE is definitely a plus. But at the end of the day, if you didn't try to add the Jericho comment, then don't complain that it's not there. We could replace Heyman's comment with Jericho's, because Heyman was directly feuding with Reigns at the time of his comments, it would make sense for him to talk Reigns up to sell people on a compelling storyline.
*Regarding the Observer's 2nd Most Overrated in 2014, it's because there's a clear contrast with him winning Most Improved in 2013. Plus, Meltzer made special mention that it came down "to the final ballot" for Kane to beat Reigns - and Meltzer also analyzed why voters thought he was overrated - so it's the RS placing importance on this result. It also contrasts with the WWE 2014 Superstar of the Year.
*"body language", "promo delivery", to name a few, are certainly relevant and not mentioned anywhere else when you removed them. If RS think he is such, it is okay for us to write so as long as it is attributed as '''their''' opinion.

== Lucha de Apuesta? ==
I'm not certain that a 'contract vs. title' match is what is generally understood as meant by a 'Lucha de Apeusta.' Those traditionally mean Mask or Hair on the line. By this reasoning, any retirement match, loser leaves town match, or MITB defense might be called a Lucha de Apuesta. It seems to me that's missing the point.

'''Semi-protection:''' High level of IP vandalism.

During Reigns' match with Seth Rollins at Money in the Bank 2016, Reigns played as the heel, showing arrogance and cockyness and actually heel traits by constantly slapping Rollins. The next night on Raw, Reigns even told the fans who booed him and chanted "You can't wrestle!" to shut up. He's clearly turning heel

:"Persona and reception of Roman Reigns" '''IS''' a section of this article.

The sub-article is a little too heavy on providing such opinions and a little too shy on providing an understanding on what issues would necessitate a separate article, especially as it concerns the difference between real life and storyline. And is David Shoemaker really an ESPN reporter or a wrestling writer who ESPN hired to write a story about a wrestling event?

*'''No ''policy-based'' arguments given for merge'''. The reception for Reigns is [[WP:N]] for its own article based on a huge volume of [[WP:RS]] reporting dedicated to it. Simple as. Spin-off articles are absolutely commonplace on Wikipedia ([[Criticism of the BBC]], [[Reactions to the Panama Papers]]), so the notion that it must remain a section of the Reigns article is poppycock.

::I don't follow WWE much these days. From what I can tell, however, this would be comparable to the criticism of and reaction to Hulk Hogan's push in spite of his actual wrestling talent 30 or so years ago. Such a rationale is yet another case of claiming notability because we currently live in a world where a glut of media outlets exist who are desperate to create content to satisfy their readership, and that past instances don't measure up to that standard because there were fewer such outlets. That runs afoul of [[WP:RECENT]] and [[WP:NOTNEWS]]. The real test is whether or not anyone will care once these writers and outlets move on to another cause, unless you also believe that "enduring notability" are merely two words you slap together in some other discussion to score brownie points but otherwise means nothing.[[User:RadioKAOS|<span style="color:green;"> RadioKAOS </span>]]/[[User talk:RadioKAOS|<span style="color:green;"> Talk to me, Billy </span>]]/[[Special:Contributions/RadioKAOS|<span style="color:green;"> Transmissions </span>]] 20:00, 21 November 2016 (UTC)
:::There are definitely more outlets now, but much of the Reigns reception article is built around the commentary of ''Wrestling Observer'' and ''Pro Wrestling Torch'', who ''were'' around 30 years ago. As for recentism, this story now goes back two years, but I do agree that some of the week-by-week reporting is superfluous and should be trimmed.

Ditto for [[Stone Cold Steve Austin]], [[Dwayne Johnson]] and [[Attitude Era]]. A major ongoing story for 2+ years, I don't think [[WP:NOTNEWS]] applies. Splinter articles for criticism of individuals ([[Criticism of Akira Kurosawa]], [[Criticism of Mother Teresa]]) or for public image ([[Public image of Sarah Palin]], [[Public image of Rudy Giuliani]]) are all too common when their public reception becomes independently notable and the content too vast to adequately cover in one article.

*'''Keep separate'''. Article far too big to be a part of Reigns' regular article, especially since it will only grow more and more in the future. Reigns seems infamous enough that it would deserve its own article. --[[User:Hyliad|Hyliad]] ([[User talk:Hyliad|d]]), 03:34, 7 March 2017 (CEST)
*'''Comment''' I would argue that the spirit of many Wikipedia policies points to a merge. For instance, as I stated earlier in the discussion, [[WP:CRIT]] states that a separate reception article is often used when "the primary article on a literary topic grows too large and is subject to a content fork", although it provides non-literary examples. However, what happened with this article doesn't fit the [[WP:CFORK]] bill. It states that separate articles like this are often made "when a particular controversial incident gets a lot of attention from reliable sources representing different points of view, expanding until every item of evidence is included and referenced". This isn't really the case here, as this is about the general persona and reception of Reigns (which is inherently linked to him and is part of his notability), and not a separate, independently notable event or topic. Regarding [[WP:SPINOUT]], it states that "As browsers have improved, there is no need for haste in splitting an article when it starts getting large. Sometimes an article simply needs to be big to give the subject adequate coverage". Finally, this article probably never violated [[WP:SIZERULE]]. That policy specifically states that "These rules of thumb apply only to readable prose". I measured the readable prose size of the articles using [[User:Dr pda/prosesize|Prosesize]] and found that [[Roman Reigns]] measures up at 24kB, while [[Persona and reception of Roman Reigns]] weighs in at only 13kB. Together, that's only 37kB of readable prose. According to [[WP:SIZERULE]], "Length alone does not justify division" for articles below 40 kB of readable prose.
:Thus, I restate my support for team '''merge''', citing the article size guidelines as my ''policy-based argument''. [[User:rasimmons|<font face="times, serif">'''R. A. S'''<small>immons</small>&nbsp;</font>]]<sup>[[User talk:rasimmons|Talk]]</sup> 19:10, 1 March 2017 (UTC)

== Date removals ==
*'''Note''' [[User:MajesticPenguin]] was identified as a blocked users sock [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/StylesClash18 here] [[User: WarMachineWildThing|<b style="color:Red">Chris<span style="color:Red"> "WarMachineWildThing"</span></b>]] <sup>[[User talk: WarMachineWildThing|<font color="Blue">'''Talk to me'''</font>]]</sup> 03:28, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

I've seen a series of similar edits and reverts across my watchlist today regarding removal of dates and other information. A few years ago we had [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Professional_wrestling/Archive_89#A_rant|a discussion]] about how to write about an event. While we didn't really come to any agreement there, the project over time worked out a rough consensus on how to go about it. Article size is a big problem with wrestling articles, fanboys feel the need to write down every aspect of an event.

I feel that {{u|MajesticPenguin}}'s edit is a massive improvement as it is far more succinct. They removed excessive details; "and succeeded in doing so after beating Bryan via pinfall" became "which Reigns won", "came to an end at the hands of Team Hell No" became "ended in a loss to Team Hell No", and a description of a match as a "singles match" (which goes without saying) was removed. In one case they improved grammar (removal of "No. 1 contender") and that was also reverted.[https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Roman_Reigns&curid=4373640&diff=761663640&oldid=761594049] Much of that discussion linked above dealt with how to write dates down. We don't describe ''Raw'' or ''SmackDown'' as weekly TV shows after every mention, so why would we do that with PPVs? A link to the article should be enough. I trimmed a a lot of bloat off [[AJ Styles]] a few months ago and most of it was with edits like these. Tagging {{u|Dane}}, {{u|WarMachineWildThing}} and {{u|MPJ-DK}} who had an issue with this.[[User:LM2000|LM2000]] ([[User talk:LM2000|talk]]) 06:47, 24 January 2017 (UTC)

:Here's a sample from [[AJ Styles]]:{{quote|Styles was mysteriously attacked by an anonymous assailant backstage leading him to believe it was Samoa Joe or Christopher Daniels, both of whom he faced the following month at Turning Point to retain the TNA World Heavyweight Championship.[91] He continued to successfully defend the title against Desmond Wolfe on the December 10 episode of Impact!,[92] against Daniels at Final Resolution,[93] against Angle on the January 4, 2010 episode of Impact!,[94] and against Tomko, who had been revealed as his mystery attacker, on the January 14 episode of Impact!.[95]}}

I agree with LM2000 in that the page is more succint but all editors need to have a say in order to achieve concensus. If any other editors wish to contribute, please do as we need to achieve concensus.

The biggest issue for me is only PPV dates were removed. If we're removing dates why were Raw or Smackdown dates not removed, kinda one sided? Also for the casual reader it should be noted when an event is a PPV and not a TV show IE: Raw or Smackdown. There are plenty of other areas that I have been asked about that probably should be cut down IE: every move they preform, every single theme song they have used, or every single nickname some announcer gives them, but without consensus I'm not removing them. I mean for example do we really need to know that "Bob" preformed 7 signature moves over his 20 year career? Do we really need 20 pics of the same person in each article? I feel like every one of the wrestling articles are getting out of control but mass edits like the ones preformed without a consensus should not be done. That's how edit wars get started.

There are no Wikipedia pages for every episode of Raw and Smackdown, hence why they have not been removed, but I agree that they should be available for casual readers. I would like to make a suggestion to keep the year of the PPV on the link as that may assist any casual readers with a reference. However, I agree with your opinion and will stop removing PPV dates.

King regards, [[User:MajesticPenguin|MajesticPenguin]] ([[User talk:MajesticPenguin|talk]]) 17:34, 24 January 2017 (UTC)
:*The one thing to take from the really long discussion from years ago that I linked above is to use variety in writing. There are times when you may have to explain a match happened at PPV; this is common with events like TLC, Hell in a Cell and Royal Rumble where the eponymous match can get confused with the PPV itself. Other times the full date may be important; one thing I disagreed with MajesticPenguin on was the removal of Reigns' debut date at the Survivor Series. It's probably a good idea to include the full date at the opening of each section so readers know where they are. The most important thing is to never be repetitive. Ever read an article that clearly got written as a story developed, like: "On the January 1st episode of Raw The Undertaker chockslammed Kane off the stage. On the January 2nd SmackDown, Kane chockslammed Undertaker through the ring. On the January 8th episode of Raw Vince McMahon booked them in a casket match at Unforgiven the Unforgiven pay-per-view on January 20th. On January 20th, Undertaker defeated Kane by locking him in a casket after a Tombstone Piledriver."? "Undertaker feuded with Kane in January 2017, culminating in a casket match at Unforgiven, where he defeated him" works much better. At least for me.[[User:LM2000|LM2000]] ([[User talk:LM2000|talk]]) 17:56, 24 January 2017 (UTC)

*'''Keep separate''' - so far, there have been no policy-based arguments in favor of keeping separate, and that ''includes'' Rasimmons' comments, which are the same only with allusions to guidelines that amount to 'it doesn't specifically say we have to, therefore we shouldn't'.

It also seems to me that contrary to what Rasimmons states above, the ''spirit'' of [[WP:CFORK]] is in fact in favor of a split/keeping separate, as in the lede of that guideline it says ''as an article grows, editors often create summary-style spin-offs or new, linked articles for related material.

The subject of Roman's newborn twin sons was discussed on the 3/31/2017 episode of Chris Jericho's Podcast, found on Podcast One. No direct details were given, such as exactly when they were born or their names. Roman just stated they were born a couple of weeks ago... with no indication of the actual date they recorded the podcast. It was very briefly discussed, and according to Roman, it was the first time he had said anything publicly about it. I gathered from the conversation, that Reigns is very protective of his family's privacy. I just thought the information needed to be added to his page, as a matter of interest. I respect The family's privacy, and names and exact ages aren't important, but it the twins are Roman's children and since Jolie is mentioned, I felt the twins should be as well. I do not have any other information than that given on the 3/31/2017 Episode of the Talk Is Jericho Podcast on Podcast one.

Elimination Chamber 2018 is listed as an accomplishment for Roman which is strange because he’s not the only winner of the elimination chamber but is the only one who has it listed. Wikipedia use to never have them listed before. I don’t see how it’s fair. [[Special:Contributions/107.19.24.163|107.19.24.163]] ([[User talk:107.19.24.163|talk]]) 14:47, 25 September 2024 (UTC)

Latest revision as of 06:13, 10 October 2024

Roman Reigns’ 1316 day reign as Wikipedia Page.

[edit]

Roman Reigns’ Universal Title reign feels similar to the Undertakers’ streak, am I believe it should have it’s own page. 2605:C840:805:782C:7D88:A198:BEE0:1C67 (talk) 02:56, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Someone could do both. They’re both very historic. 2605:C840:805:782C:CD31:AC84:FEF0:13FF (talk) 06:13, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I can't envisage what this page would be other than one big plot summary. — Czello (music) 13:17, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Furthermore, would the title of this thread be the article title? If so, is someone going to move the article every day? RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 02:22, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, his title reign is over — Czello (music) 06:37, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Elimination Chamber under the accomplishments.
