Roman Reigns had a journalist kicked out of a press conference following an awkward moment at WrestleMania 40.

Night one of WrestleMania 40 in Philadelphia did not disappoint, and as expected, Roman Reigns was the star of the show.

The Undisputed Universal champ joined forces with The Rock - making his WWE comeback over a decade since his last fight - as part of a tag team main event for the ages.

The cousins defeated Seth Rollins and Cody Rhodes in a bout jam-packed with drama, surprises and classic WWE entertainment.

Perhaps the craziest moment of the evening was when Reigns accidentally speared The Rock and left the 51-year-old screaming in agony.

The incident almost cost the duo victory, but both managed to kickout when Rollins and Rhodes has them pinned on the floor.

The Rock recovered to hit Rhodes with a Rock Bottom, before pulling off a People's Elbow to secure the win.

However, despite avoiding an embarrassing defeat, the drama did not end there.

During a press conference after the event, Reigns had a journalist removed from the room following an extremely awkward moment.

As Reigns' manager Paul Heyman raised his hand to field questions, a journalist seemingly forgot where they were and booed the wrestler.


As you'd expect, Reigns was less than impressed.

"Who did that?" Reigns immediately asked, before he told the journalist to "leave."

After starring at the offender for a few seconds, Reigns continued: "I'm serious. The lady with the glasses, get her out.

"Get her out or I'm leaving."

With the journalist reluctant to budge, Reigns said: "Use your feet. You're wasting our time lady."

In a bid to lighten the mood, Heyman jumped in and said: "This ain't baseball, there's no three strikes."

Victory for Reigns and The Rock ensured that Sunday night's title fight between Reigns and Rhodes will be contested under Bloodline Rules.
