'If that kid...' - Triple H recalls his statement about Roman Reigns at first WWE meeting

When Triple H first saw the future Tribal Chief in WWE, he made an extremely audacious statement about Roman Reigns. Reigns had recently switched from football to wrestling when he first signed with the organization in 2010. Reigns began his career working closely with Triple H, who had recently taken over the system, in developmental.

In wrestling, first impressions are always important, but Roman Reigns made a unique impact.In an interview with Brunson and Josh Hart on The Roommates Show, the Chief Content Officer described how he told Dusty Rhodes right away that Reigns was unique when they first met. The Game worked closely with individuals like Dusty Rhodes and William Regal at this time to transform WWE's upcoming generation of hopefuls into main event competitors for years to come at WrestleMania. Roman Reigns secured a contract with Triple H in 2010 after initially interacting with the organization in this position.

"The first time I ever met Roman Reigns, I had just taken over and started what would become our develpmental system, and he had just transitioned over from football to being in our developmental system. The first day I met him, I sat down with him for 20 minutes just to get to know him a little bit. Walked out of the interview and, at the time, Dusty Rhodes was working in developmental with me, I walked up to Dusty and said, "If that kid is not the biggest star we ever have in ten years, I don't know whar we're doing. He has everything."

Roman Reigns has emerged as biggest WWE star

The OTC and The Game would collaborate on-screen several times, most notably at WrestleMania 32's main event. Few people believed Roman Reigns would become the next big star in the WWE promotion when he first made his debut on the main roster, particularly following The Shield's devastation. Ever since, Reigns has emerged as one of the most prominent figures in the contemporary age.

According to Roman Reings, he will get back both his Ula Fala and his Bloodline. Reigns declared that he will regain his respect. "The world will have no choice but to acknowledge him once he has that respect," Reigns added. Heyman clapped his hands together and signaled to Reigns to stop.
