WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns is on top of the WWE, at this point who often claims to be in charge of the company. He was present on a recent episode of the Sports Illustrated Media Podcast with Jimmy Traina where he discussed having more creative freedom in his promos. This was the reason he was allowed to talk missionary position during a SmackDown promo.
Roman Reigns’ current heel character has many fans wondering whether this will eventually lead into a match with his cousin Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson at an upcoming edition of WrestleMania. While it’s not impossible to see Reigns mentioned that there’s a lot of factors attached to the planning so that the match could actually become a reality.

Moving further in an interview, the Tribal Chief was reminded of an off-topic. In the main event of WrestleMania 32 in 2016, Roman Reigns defeated Triple H to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. On his way to the win, Reigns hit Stephanie McMahon with a Spear inside the ring.
Traina and his niece wondered whether the Billion Dollar Princess was happy about digesting that spear and what the backstage dynamic could have looked like. Roman Reigns was all praise about one of his bosses in the WWE offering a sporting attitude on that Grandest Stage of Them All to make his crowning moment look even sweeter.

Roman Reigns discussed his spear on Stephanie McMahon
“She took it like a champ. She did a great job, and I didn’t really pull any of the physicality out. She took a full-on spear, and that’s how you should do it in the main event of WrestleMania.
She was obviously a little bit sore and not very happy about that, but I think everybody after a main event of a WrestleMania is ecstatic of going through that process, and the adrenaline rush of the performance and then also celebrating a phenomenal moment with the live audience, everybody watching at home,” Roman Reigns added.
I’ll say she wasn’t ecstatic, but I think she was happy with the moment, to be a part of that.”
Stephanie McMahon was a big part of the storyline process between Triple H and Roman Reigns, heading into that WrestleMania match. Hence, her digesting that spear has a great pay-off to the angle.
Apart from that Roman Reigns’ spear, Stephanie McMahon took another bump at WrestleMania 2017, the very next year when her husband Triple H competed in a match against Seth Rollins. The former Shield member shoved The Game into Stephanie, forcing her to go through a table. All in all, someway Steph got to be key parts of those mega Mania matches, creating some memorable moments.
