The wheels are in motion for Roman Reigns’ return to WWE television as fans haven’t seen him in action since he beat Jey Uso, thanks to outside interference from Jimmy Uso at the SummerSlam premium live event.
There was a segment on the post-SummerSlam episode of SmackDown where Jey laid out Jimmy, Solo Sikoa, and Reigns, leading to Reigns disappearing from television. This is due to Reigns’ part-time deal he signed with WWE last year, where he works fewer dates.
As previously reported, Reigns’ next match will be on November 4 in Saudi Arabia. He will be back on television leading up to the match to promote it. Reigns’ exact return is unclear.
The Fiserv Forum’s official website is advertising him for the SmackDown show in Milwaukee on October 27th. John Cena, United States Champion Rey Mysterio, Women’s Champion IYO SKY, LA Knight, Street Profits, Bobby Lashley, Charlotte Flair, Sheamus, and AJ Styles are also advertised for the show.
WWE’s website currently doesn’t have him advertised for the show. Reigns is not advertised on WWE.com or arena websites for any other SmackDown events.
He’s not expected to work Fastlane next month, nor is he advertised for Survivor Series in November and Royal Rumble in January.
