Roman Reigns Could Make Shocking Return on RAW

Roman Reigns has been absent from WWE programming since his elimination from the 2025 Royal Rumble match. The Undisputed Tribal Chief is scheduled to return on the March 21 and 28 episodes of SmackDown as WWE finalizes plans for WrestleMania 41.

A surprising development could see Reigns making his return on Monday Night RAW instead. The OTC might sign with the red brand for the first time in six years, potentially building toward a rumored Triple Threat match against CM Punk and Seth Rollins at WrestleMania.

This potential brand switch would make strategic sense considering Reigns defeated Solo Sikoa in a Tribal Combat match during RAW’s Netflix debut, officially becoming the Undisputed Tribal Chief.

The seeds for this possible three-way rivalry were planted at the 2025 Men’s Royal Rumble when CM Punk simultaneously eliminated both Reigns and Rollins while they were engaged in a shoving contest. Logan Paul subsequently eliminated Punk, leading to a brawl outside the ring where Rollins delivered two Stomps to Reigns, including one on the steel steps.

Moving Reigns to Monday Night RAW would create fresh storyline opportunities if executed properly by WWE’s creative team.
