Roman Reigns said it was a time when he had to choose between WrestleMania 36 and his family, and he decided to go with his family.

“It’s funny because for years people were like, ‘don’t show up to WrestleMania, we don’t want you in it’. Some haters didn’t want me there, but the moment I choose my family, I’m a coward. You don’t know anything,” said Roman Reigns.
