WWE fans, mark your calendars as the anticipated return of Roman Reigns to WWE SmackDown has been revealed. Roman Reigns last graced the WWE stage at SummerSlam, which took place on August 5, 2023. During this electrifying event, Reigns went head-to-head with Jey Uso in a battle for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. Reigns emerged victorious, solidifying his position as the reigning champion.
However, the action didn’t stop there. Just six days later, on an episode of SmackDown, Reigns found himself in a dramatic confrontation with Jimmy and Jey Uso. The encounter took a wild turn when Reigns was ultimately taken out by Jey Uso. Since that fateful night, The Tribal Chief has remained conspicuously absent from WWE television screens, leaving fans speculating about his next move.
Now, it appears that the WWE universe won’t have to wait much longer to witness Roman Reigns back in action. Reports suggest that he is set to make his triumphant return at the upcoming Crown Jewel premium live event in Saudi Arabia, scheduled for November 4. The anticipation is running high as fans eagerly await Reigns’ return to the ring.
Adding to the excitement, Reigns was recently featured in the promotional material for the October 27 episode of SmackDown. This episode is set to take place at the Fiserv Forum arena, and fans can expect a thrilling night of WWE action. Reigns’ presence in the advertisement is sparking further intrigue about his plans for that episode.
The October 27 episode of SmackDown promises to be a star-studded affair, with several WWE luminaries also advertised for the event. Wrestling enthusiasts can look forward to the likes of John Cena, LA Knight, Charlotte Flair, Bobby Lashley & The Street Profits, and the United States Champion Rey Mysterio gracing the stage.
Roman Reigns has not only solidified his status as “The Tribal Chief” but has also etched his name in the annals of WWE history by surpassing 1000 days as world champion. Over the past few years, he has successfully defended his title against formidable opponents, including legends like John Cena, Brock Lesnar, and Cody Rhodes.
The burning question among fans remains: Who will be the one to dethrone Roman Reigns and bring an end to his historic title reign? Wrestling aficionado Vince Russo has thrown an intriguing perspective into the mix. According to Russo, the superstar destined to achieve this remarkable feat is not currently under WWE contract. He emphasized that Roman Reigns, as the most over superstar, should continue to hold the belt until the right contender emerges.
In another intriguing development, a former champion with a thirst for gold has voiced his aspirations. This superstar, after a six-year hiatus from world title contention, is eyeing a monumental showdown with Roman Reigns. The WWE universe is buzzing with excitement as the landscape of the championship scene continues to evolve.
As Roman Reigns prepares for his return to the WWE SmackDown ring, fans can expect the excitement to reach unprecedented heights. The world will be watching closely as “The Tribal Chief” looks to solidify his reign or face a challenger bold enough to step into the spotlight.
