Roman Reigns Says Win At WWE SummerSlam Is ‘Full Circle’ Moment, Calls Dean Ambrose a ‘Wild Hair’

Roman Reigns says that his victory over Seth Rollins at WWE SummerSlam was a “full circle” moment for him. Reigns defeated Rollins in the main event of night two of SummerSlam to retain the World Heavyweight Championship.

The win seemingly shut the door on their past issues from the Shield’s breakup, and Reigns spoke with Jackie Redmond immediately after the match. He talked about the win, what he said to Rollins just before the final spear of the match and more. You can see highlights below:

On What the Win Means To Him:

“Well, this is a complete full circle, this is where we close the loop. For it to happen here in Minnesota, this is where my football career ended, and to be able to add this moment here — I’ve been saying it all day. God is a better storyteller than all of us. This is a special moment to me.”

On Not Hitting Rollins With the Chair:

“[I thought to] do what I tell my sons, do what I tell my daughter. Learn from your mistakes. It’s time that we all grow up emotionally. You gotta mature, you gotta learn from your mistakes. You gotta take these losses and make them lessons, and that’s what I did tonight.”

On What He Said to Rollins Before the Spear:

“‘It’s always been me and you.’ Since FCW, since the Red Rooster was bitching at us. It’s always been me and Seth, it’s always been the two of us. Even in the Shield, we already knew what it was. We knew Ambrose was a wild hair, but we knew we were the guys that were gonna change this place. When people left, when people were scared, when they ran off, we held the fort down.”
