Roman Reigns And AEW Referenced Together On HBO Max’s ‘Hacks’
The 2022 Golden Globe Winner for Best Television Series (Comedy or Musical) has acknowledged Roman Reigns as their Tribal Chief.
The latest episode of the HBO Max series ‘Hacks’ featured a brief scene where the character Marcus (played by Carl Clemons-Hopkins) and Marcus’s mother Robin (played by Angela Elayne Gibb) were having a conversation in which Robin showed interest in her son’s ex-boyfriend.

Roman Reigns was not the only pro wrestling reference, as AEW was also brought up in the same scene with Robin asking her son Marcus about his ex-boyfriend when she asked him, “if Roman Reigns ever goes to the AEW, can I at least DM him?” Marcus reluctantly agreed.
Pro wrestling has casually been mentioned before in other television shows like the hit series “Black-ish.” Two of the teenagers in the show talked about how they tried to recreate one of the classic Okada/Tanahashi matches from Wrestle Kingdom.
