Roman Reigns already figured out the course of his road to the WrestleMania 42. Reigns became the winner of the 2026 Men Royal Rumble and affirmed his challenge to CM Punk on the largest scale in the World Heavyweight Championship in WWE. The declaration pre-conditioned immediately a key event of such magnitude.
Backstage Reigns Revealed
WWE then dedicated that to release a short vlog that would grant access to Reigns exclusively to the fans over that weekend of the Royal Rumble. The video followed him all the way to Saudi Arabia and all the way to the end just before he entered the Rumble match. The backstage video provided a less serious image of the Tribal Chief.
Unexpected Backstage Moment
One of the strangest scenes included the one, when Reigns appeared with a haircut backstage with Otis. It was a trivial and unpretentious one. The emergence of the two surprised the fans as they have totally different personalities on the screen. The video was shortly transformed into an internet debate.
Reigns Mentors Evans
The other scene that was interesting was that of Reigns conversing with Je’Von Evans who is among the young WWE talents. Even their dialogue was only partially audible. However, it was apparent that Reigns was providing counsel and inspirations to Evans before entering the ring. The pronouncement was more emphasized when the match would be held.
Iron Man Performance Context
Evans has remained the Iron Man in the Royal Rumble. He managed to live forty minutes before he was killed by Randy Orton. His small talk with Reigns was significant due to that performance. It meant that an elderly man was teaching wisdom by the right moment. The role of Reigns as a backstage mentor was implicitly uncovered in the vlog.

Reigns would later look back in the video to how he became the face of WWE. He cited the turn point in 2020 when he assumed the role of the Tribal Chief. Reigns says that the transformation of that had to be won as opposed to coerced.
He claimed that it was difficult to defend his position as such megastars as John Cena, Randy Orton, Big Show and Kane kept on outmuscling others in the locker room. Nothing came easily. All the steps required demonstration of himself.
Reigns Speaks His Mind
Reigns also explained why he is now talking open about the WWE. According to him, he had earned that right through years of work. This comment was a duplicate of his earlier remarks on the Pat McAfee Show. The remarks that were posted in relation to the product were targeted to WWE, and how it could demand its position when his star has been taken away.
