Over the past few years, Roman Reigns has become one of WWE’s biggest superstars, thanks to his historic world title reign. He has been the reason many fans started watching wrestling again. Recently, Paul Heyman offered an intriguing explanation for the significant rise in female viewership as well.

The Original Tribal Chief and his Wiseman appeared at the Power Players Summit in New York. When the host asked about the reason behind the large female viewership in WWE, Paul Heyman pointed his fingers toward Roman Reigns. The Hall of Famer stated that Reigns was the main reason behind it, but the former Universal Champion couldn’t contain his laughter and asked the host to change the question.

During the summit, the duo answered numerous questions, including one about John Cena. When asked for his opinion on the 16-time world champion calling him the GOAT of wrestling, Reigns claimed it was hard to argue against Cena. The former Bloodline leader made his return at the SummerSlam PLE a few months after losing his title to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania XL, and attacked Solo Sikoa.

Meanwhile, Heyman was assaulted by the revamped version of The Bloodline and has been absent from television ever since. Additionally, Sikoa, along with Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, and Jacob Fatu, also launched a brutal attack on Reigns. The WWE Universe is eagerly awaiting their reunion with The Usos and the start of The Bloodline Civil War. With the Survivor Series PLE just a few months away, it’s safe to say that the buildup will begin soon.
