More Information About The Future Of Roman Reigns Revealed

Don’t expect to see Roman Reigns back on WWE programming in the near future…

The Tribal Chief hasn’t been seen on SmackDown since losing the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WrestleMania XL to Cody Rhodes. Last night was no exception as, despite being advertised as part of the draft pool on the first night of the WWE Draft, Reigns did not appear and was not drafted as part of The Bloodline.

His absence was explained early in the show when Kayla Braxton conducted a backstage interview with his long-time Special Counsel Paul Heyman. Heyman explained that Reigns will not be returning to the company for the time being so there is no point in him taking the top draft spot.

Well, let me clarify that for you. These are not rumours regarding your Tribal Chief Roman Reigns, these are facts. Ladies and gentleman, your Tribal Chief Roman Reigns has voluntarily withdrawn from eligibility for the 2024 Draft. This is not a negative. This is a positive. Who built Smackdown since the pandemic? Roman Reigns. Who is the biggest star in the entire industry? Roman Reigns.

Why would Roman Reigns hog the number one draft pick spotlight when Roman Reigns is not going to be returning in the immediate future? Read into my words, Kayla. That is not what a real Tribal Chief would do.

Reigns’ stablemates in The Bloodline, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga and Heyman himself, were drafted to SmackDown during the third round of picks on last night’s edition of the show.

The Undertaker Recently Praised Roman Reigns’ Historic Title Run

During a recent edition of his Six Feet Under podcast, The Undertaker had high praise for Reigns’ 1,316-day reign as Universal Champion. The Deadman went on to say Reigns’ run that while the reign itself will not go down as the longest in history, it was the most important since at least the early 80’s.
