Since the build to SummerSlam and even in the later weeks, The Vision has been feuding with Roman Reigns. OTC has their hate for Seth Rollins, the revenge on Bron Breakker for spearing him on RAW after WrestleMania. Even Bronson Reed is on Reigns’ radar now due to the Aussie’s unusual theft of his sneaker collection. Whenever Reed has taken down Reigns, the former manages to take out the latter’s shoes.
In a way to humiliate Roman and make him remember the attack from the lost shoes. However, on the latest episode of Monday Night RAW, Reigns managed to turn the tables, emerging on the overpowering side. During a discussion on the RAW Recap podcast, Reed addressed the brawl and pointed out that in every singles confrontation, he’s come out on top, leaving Reigns shoeless.
Bronson also claimed that he’s been outshining Roman all the time to make the ‘Superman’ turn into Clark Kent. When podcast host Sam Roberts noted that Reigns didn’t attempt to steal Reed’s shoes, he stated that if Reigns had tried, Reed would have quickly delivered a beating. While Reigns stood tall this time, Reed still did not fall off and was confident even while walking away from him.
Bronson Reed explains what drives him to steal those sneakers
During the same podcast, Sam Roberts discussed the sneaker culture experience of being “de-sneakered” and forced to walk home in socks. To which Bronson Reed admitted he’s faced and was humiliated by it. Growing up in tough parts of Adelaide, South Australia, like Rhea Ripley, Reed fought for everything. Let it be growing up in that street life or making a name for himself in this wrestling world.
That’s the reason Bronson never owned nice shoes as a kid and envied those who did. Now, with success and money, Reed ensures he wears top-tier sneakers. However, the envy still rolls, and now his mission is to take others’ shoes, like Roman Reigns’, to assert dominance. Now, the Tribal Thief has a chance to get a win over the Tribal Chief in their unannounced match at Clash in Paris.
