A former WWE star described an ‘oh s**t!’ moment with Roman Reigns backstage at a show in Dublin, Ireland in a recent interview.
Chatting to the Wrestling With Johners Podcast, former WWE star Sam Gradwell shared an amusing story about a run in with Roman Reigns.
After having arrived ‘super early’ to the arena ahead of a 2018 WWE live event in Dublin, Ireland, Gradwell noted that he was advised to just find anywhere to pop his bag and relax.
However, he soon realized that perhaps he was in the entirely wrong locker room.
Sharing his story about Reigns, Sam Gradwell said:
“I sat down and I looked at the chair in front of me, and I realized that Roman Reigns had set his gear over the chair in front of me, so I was like, ‘Oh s**t, I’ve gotta get out of here, I’ve gotta find a different room.
I go to pick up my bag to leave, and Roman walks in and says, ‘No, no, no, you sit there, you’re good,’ and he just sat chatting to me all night.”
“Couldn’t have been more down to earth, couldn’t have been more cool. He watched mine and Jordan [JD McDonagh]’s match, and he gave some of the most helpful feedback I think I’ve ever had.”
While Sam Gradwell may have departed the company, WWE continues to discuss plans for the forthcoming NXT Europe set to replace the former brand, NXT UK.
