WWE 2018 Review: 5 Most Memorable Moments

#1 The WWE universe unites for Roman Reigns

Roman Reigns announced a heartbreaking leukaemia diagnosis and shocked the WWE fans around the world when he revealed that he had lived with leukaemia for the last 11 years and that, due to the cancer returning, he would have to relinquish the WWE Universal Championship to focus on his health.

For over three years, Reigns has been the WWE's heir apparent, the man tapped by Vince McMahon to carry the company. Reigns has main evented four straight WrestleManias, became a Grand Slam Champion, and battled top wrestlers like Brock Lesnar and AJ Styles and was made the face of WWE.

While Reigns has often struggled to connect with fans, mainly because of him being the 'Big Dog' and fans booing him, the WWE Universe showed an outpouring of support after his heartbreaking announcement showing the personal connection the fans made with him because of his disease and separating the script roles from reality.

A heartwarming backstage video was also released where all of the Raw locker room came together to embrace the former Universal Champion and wish him the best of luck for his battle against the disease.
