Roman Reigns is a three-time WWE World Heavyweight Champion and is one of the highest-paid athletes in WWE today. The promotion has made constant efforts to promote Reigns as the face of the company. Reigns had a great WWE comeback story over the last year where the superstar not only overcame cancer to return to the ring, but also dominated the SmackDown scene ever since he was last drafted to the blue brand.
Roman Reigns – His base salary
Roman Reigns is one of the biggest draws in the WWE and reportedly takes home a base salary of approximately $1.2 million as of mid-2018. He is also entitled to a percentage of his merchandise sales and bonuses from headlining major PPV events.
Roman Reigns – Current net worth
According to multiple American media reports, Roman Reigns has a net worth which currently stands at an estimated $12 million as of this year. And with growing pay-per-view subscriptions, the amount is only expected to go higher.
Roman Reigns has also developed into a sizeable draw for the WWE as he is the second-highest merchandise seller in the company, as per reports. He did the unthinkable when he surpassed John Cena as the top merchandise mover in 2018, a position now held by the reigning WWE Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch.
What is next for the 'Big Dog' Roman Reigns?
Roman Reigns has not been involved in any major title feud since his return but had recently led Team Hogan to victory as the team captain at Crown Jewel PPV in Riyadh. He was last involved in a match against Baron 'King' Corbin on WWE Friday Night Smackdown. For those fans speculating his future in the WWE, he may continue to wrestle in the mid-card for a while against major heels or could soon find himself in the title picture somewhere down the line.
Roman Reigns has also featured on the cover of WWE 2K20 video game this year and was cast in the 2019 action film Hoobs & Shaw alongside cousin, Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson. It's also likely that we see more of him in Hollywood in the years to come.
