As the Tribal Chief gears up for WrestleMania weekend, the typically serious demeanor of Roman Reigns was briefly interrupted in a backstage video where he was spotted observing Sonya Deville being oiled up by Dana Brooke ahead of her match.
In WWE, athletes often apply oil to enhance their appearance before matches, a practice that’s routine for many performers. Wetting the hair, as Triple H frequently did in his career, is another common ritual.
Recently resurfaced on social media, an old video captured a lighthearted moment featuring Roman Reigns.

In the footage, Reigns, passing through backstage in a cart, encountered Dana Brooke massaging oil onto Sonya Deville. His attention was visibly caught as he paused, unable to avert his gaze.
Both Deville and Brooke shared a laugh at his expense as he sheepishly shook his head.
Caught in the act, Reigns momentarily broke character, sharing a laugh with the duo before hastily departing in the cart, quipping,
“I have serious work to do today.”
As WrestleMania approaches, Reigns faces a demanding schedule, set to compete in two high-stakes matches.
During the first night, he’ll join forces with The Rock to take on Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins, a bout with potential ramifications for his title reign.
A victory would grant him an advantage for the following night’s match against Rhodes, with the Bloodline Rules potentially working in his favor.
However, defeat would leave him defending his title without support from the rest of the Bloodline, adding another layer of pressure to his WrestleMania agenda.
In addition to these challenges, Reigns must remain vigilant for Damian Priest, who has hinted at a potential cash-in of the Money in the Bank briefcase, further intensifying the stakes of his WrestleMania doubleheader.
