It is secret to none that Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose share a special bond. The two men, along with Seth Rollins, formed one of the most dominant stables in professional wrestling- The Shield.
Though they are not together as a team anymore, all three of them are big stars in the professional wrestling world. But it looks like they still have a good relationship with one another. Recently, Reigns defended Jon Moxley amidst criticism towards his Shield brother.
Recently, Moxley returned to AEW television from rehab. Though he was well received by the fans, former WWE superstar Bully Ray felt Moxley should have made some sort of apology to the fans for his absence.

However, in an interview with The Sports Illustrated Media Podcast recently, Reigns revealed he does not think that Moxley owes an apology to anyone.
The WWE Universal Champion said, “I think in this day and age, especially with how much awareness there is for mental health and taking care of yourself and prioritizing you, I don’t think he (Moxley) owes anybody an apology.”
“The fact that he was responsible enough to do what needed to be done and also not shy away from it, to help other people — because you rarely talk about those people that are just 100% inspired and motivated by what Mox did — and having that brutal honesty with himself and everyone for that matter, I don’t think he owes anyone an apology,” he added.
