WWE has announced that Roman Reigns is officially entering the men’s Royal Rumble match. For whatever reason, they decided to announce him on social media instead of Monday Night Raw. It will be interesting to see how the crowd in Philadelphia treats him. The Philly crowd wasn’t too nice to him when he won the Rumble a couple of years ago.
