Reigns, who has been the Universal Champion for over 500 days, is now gearing up for WrestleMania 38. The ‘Show of the Shows’ is scheduled to take place in April at AT&T Stadium, Texas.

The three-time WWE Champion, Reigns, has so far defeated some of the superstars in the WWE Company, including Brock Lesnar, John Cena, Braun Strowman, Daniel Bryan and even Bobby Lashley. Several Hall of Famers can also be added to the list.

Here's a list of 5 Hall of Famers Reigns has defeated so far:

1. Edge

In the main event of Night 2 of WrestleMania 37 on April 11, 2021, Reigns defeated Bryan and Edge in a triple threat match to retain the Universal Championship after assistance from his cousin Jey Uso. Edge was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2012.

2. Mark Henry

Mark Henry, who retired from WWE following WrestleMania 33, currently is a part of the All Elite Wrestling (AEW) roster. The last time he faced off against Reigns was back in May 2015 in RAW. The Tribal Chief defeated Henry via a count out in a match that lasted for just under four minutes. Henry was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2018.

3. Kane

The former WWF (now WWE) champion, Kane, remained a vital member of the company's "Attitude Era" of the late 1990s and early 2000s. Kane and Reigns competed against each other several times, with their last encounter coming in a dark match on RAW back in 2018, where the Tribal Chief came on the top in the end. Kane, who is a politician now, was inducted into WWE’s Hall of Fame in 2021.

4. Goldberg

The Hall of Famer of Class 2018, Goldberg, returned to WWE earlier this year and made a trip to Saudi Arabia for the Elimination Chamber event. Reigns defeated the former champion quite comfortably, making him the first man to defeat Brock Lesnar, Goldberg and The Undertaker in singles competition.
