WWE star Roman Reigns has shared the whole story behind him accidentally hitting a cameraman with a golf club while filming “Hobbs & Shaw.”

Some might not know that Reigns is cousin of WWE icon turned Hollywood superstar Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. This basically explains why Reigns was included in the casts of Johnson’s upcoming movie “Hobbs & Shaw.” And while filming a fight scene with Johnson, Reigns accidentally hit a cameraman in the face with a golf club.

Appearing on ESPN’s “E:60,” Reigns described how the incident happened in a unique and hilarious way.

At first, Reigns thougt that it was going to be just a regular fight scene but was shocked when informed that he will do a fight scene with Johnson.

"Being the new guy, I thought I was gonna have a regular fight scene. But they told me, 'you're gonna have a fight scene with Dwayne',” Reigns said.

Reigns then proceeded to unveil how the accident happened.

"We built it up and we finally get to the day [of shooting the fight]. We're moving in perfect chemistry. At the end of any fight scene, you have that cool superhero pose. We get eye-to-eye, we throw our clubs. Right-back, I know I'm the man. Oh my God....I'm not the man. I hit the cameraman directly in the face. He takes a huge spill. I sprint over to him. I'm apologizing like crazy. Everyone is screaming,” Reigns revealed.

After realizing that he had hurt the cameraman, Reigns apoligized like “crazy” and started to notice that the whole crew was waiting for Johnson’s reactions. Reigns on the other hand, knew that he messed up.

"I pick up [the cameraman], and no one is looking at me anymore. They're looking at Dwayne,” Reigns said.

The 34-year-old WWE star then revealed what Johnson told him after the incident.

"Only in Dwayne fashion.'Roman, I don't even know why I brought you on this project. I think I gotta fire you now.' Luckily, the cameraman was a trooper and accepted my apology," Reigns noted.

Looking at the actual video footage, the cameraman got knocked down after the club hit him straight in the face. Lucky enough, the cameraman did not sustain any serious injury from the accident.

Embarrassed by the incident, Reigns said he sees himself as a full-time superstar in the WWE for at least five more years. However, when he's done being a full-time superstar for WWE, Hollywood will be waiting for him.

Reigns isn't currently booked for a match at SummerSlam, but recent rumors have suggested he will be facing Daniel Bryan in a match on the show.
