Although Roman Reigns works a limited schedule, with appearances only happening on television and at premium live events, “The Tribal Chief” has been added to several upcoming WWE events.
Reigns hasn’t been seen since retaining the Undisputed WWE Universal Title over Cody Rhodes in the main event of the second night of WrestleMania 39 last month in LA, a shocking finish to many fans as Rhodes was expected to dethrone Reigns as the champion with the belief Reigns would go on hiatus for a few months to sell the loss.
WWE has confirmed that Reigns will make his return this Friday on SmackDown.
As previously reported, Reigns is slated to work the Night of Champions PLE that is set for May 27 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, and the Money In The Bank show in London at the O2 Arena on July 1. He’s also advertised for SummerSlam on August 5 in Detroit, Michigan, at Ford Field.
Although WWE’s website is not advertising for any television events leading up to these PLEs, that will be changing in the coming weeks.
WWE runs a SmackDown event at Madison Square Garden in New York on July 7. The MSG website is now advertising Reigns alongside Bianca Belair, The Usos, Solo Sikoa, Bobby Lashley, Rey Mysterio, Bayley, Austin Theory, AJ Styles, Sheamus, The Street Profits, and LA Knight
