Roman Reigns never held a custom championship during his last title run. However, there were plans for the OTC to get a custom-made “Tribal Chief Championship.”
Reigns solidified his run as the Tribal Chief by beating Solo Sikoa in a Bloodline Rules match on WWE RAW’s Netflix premiere back in January. After the match, Roman got The Rock’s endorsement as the face of the Anoa’i family.
WrestleVotes had reported back in December that WWE had discussed introducing a physical championship into the storyline between Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa. However, the pitch got scrapped. Despite those plans being cancelled, WWE debuted the Tribal Chief Championship as a commemorative item that fans could buy.
WWEShop is now selling a new “OTC1 Collection” of merchandise, which includes two shirts, gloves, and a Tribal Chief Championship. The OTC1 name is now Reigns’ new nickname that will be used on WWE programming.
WrestleVotes noted that Reigns would’ve received this custom title “had that decision gone through back in December.” As for the price, fans can get the replica Tribal Chief Championship for a whopping $600.
Roman Reigns made his WWE return last night on RAW
Roman Reigns made his televised comeback on this week’s episode of WWE RAW. The OTC made quick work of Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed before having a staredown with CM Punk inside the ring.
For those unaware, Punk won the RAW gauntlet main event to earn a World Heavyweight Championship match against Gunther at WWE SummerSlam 2025. As for Reigns, it seems Triple H has plans for the “OTC1” to team with Jey Uso against Breakker and Reed. However, WWE has not confirmed those plans as of yet.
Reigns hasn’t competed since WWE WrestleMania 41 Night 1 when he collided with CM Punk and Seth Rollins in a triple threat match. Check out everything that went down on WWE RAW here.
