Roman Reigns had not just wrestling fans abuzz when he made his first WWE Raw appearance of 2025 on Netflix.

Taking on former enforcer Solo Sikoa in Tribal Combat for the Ula Fala and the title of Tribal Chief, Reigns thrilled eagle-eyed sneakerheads by coming out with custom Kobe 9 Elite highs.

 


 

In full Bloodline colors, Reigns’ custom Kobes were decked in a mix of mainly red and white, providing a nice contrast to his usual blacked out gear.

 


 

Reigns is a known sneakerhead himself, even well before he announced a partnership with Jordan Brand for Bloodline-related merchandise.

In his Undisputed WWE Championship match against Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40, Reigns was equipped with Jordan Brand boots.

As for the Kobe 9 in WWE lore, Batista notably wore the “Masterpiece” colorway all the way back in 2014.
