Dwayne Johnson may have wrestled for nearly eight years as a full-time WWE wrestler, but he made his mark. The Rock was one of his kind on the mic and even in the ring. In a short career in WWE, he made numerous records, of which one stands unreachable by his cousin Roman Reigns.

Recent data shows The Tribal Chief will have to wrestle more in a year to get close to DJ’s record. Also, Reigns has completed a decade in WWE, while The Brahma Bull achieved this unique record in one year in his first eight-year run.

Roman Reigns may not reach near The Rock’s unique record

After The Rock, the Anoa’i family member who has come close to replicating his success is Roman Reigns. The company was set to push ‘The Head of the Table’ as a main eventer since they laid their eyes on him. However, even though Reigns is a main-eventer now, he has not headlined RAW or SmackDown in the same way his cousin The Rock has.

As per the Wrestling Data website, The Rock has wrestled more main event matches on RAW and SmackDown than Reigns. Given Reigns’ current booking and work schedule he might never reach close to his cousin’s unique record.

The People’s Champion was on a ride in the Attitude Era, especially in 2000. That year The Great One wrestled 38 main event matches on RAW in which he won 21, lost 12, and 5 matches resulted in draws. Moreover, in the same year, he wrestled 36 main event matches on SmackDown of which DJ won 16, lost 13, and 7 matches resulted in draws.

Meanwhile, Reigns has also had several main events matches in his initial years in WWE. In 2015, the current Undisputed WWE Universal Champion wrestled 25 matches on SmackDown of which he won 24 and lost one. Furthermore, in 2016 he had the most main event matches on RAW i.e. 20, with 11 wins, six losses, and three draws. But things have changed for Reigns now that he been around for long in WWE.

Clearly, this is a notable stat and we can claim that Reigns would never break this record due to his new schedule in WWE which Paul Heyman addressed a few weeks ago.

Dwayne Johnson and Roman Reigns are in an elite club with Yokozuna

The legendary Anoa’i family has given several talented wrestlers to the business. However, they had to wait for a long time to get to the top of the mountain in WWE until Yokozuna won the WWE Championship.

However, after the late WWE Hall of Famer, only The Rock and Roman Reigns have won the same title multiple times. This makes Yokozuna, DJ, and Reigns part of an elite club in one of the most famous wrestling families.
