– Roman Reigns rocked the WWE Universe when he announced his leukemia condition on the October 22nd edition of Monday Night RAW, relinquishing his Universal Championship and stepping away from the company’s spotlight. As he works on battling this illness, The Big Dog has not been seen on WWE television since, or been involved in any storylines (other than a mention or two by RAW’s announce team and Dean Ambrose/Seth Rollins).
Thank you to everyone who’s reached out…I can’t put into words what it means to me.
Your energy and positivity motivate me to get better quickly to get back in the ring, but for now I’m going to spend time with my family and focus on health.
Thank you – Joe/Roman

Sadly, Little Miss Bliss had been sidelined for many weeks now, due to a concussion, missing WWE’s first-ever all-women’s pay-per-view Evolution, as well as the coveted Big Four Survivor Series event. While she’s been very prevalent on Monday Night RAW, and taken on non-wrestling roles, including speculation around her potentially becoming the Red brand’s next General Manager, we can all agree that the best place Alexa can be is in that squared circle.
Here’s hoping she makes a huge in-ring return soon!
