#4 WWE could be preparing for a future without Roman Reigns

Not a single day goes by without the WWE Universe pondering over a new update about Roman Reigns' status. The latest report from Sportskeeda's Tom Colohue, however, may not please The Big Dog's fans.

Tom revealed that WWE is preparing for a future without Roman Reigns and that doesn't mean he is leaving the company or being released. The WWE management reportedly knows that Roman Reigns will not be back anytime soon and the writers have been told to create storylines without keeping him in mind.

Tom explained:

After he chose not to return to the company and compete at WrestleMania, and of course, the weeks advancing, the WWE has since then been creating storylines without factoring him in at all. I have been told and I quote, 'The WWE is preparing for a future without Roman Reigns.'

This doesn't mean he is leaving the company. This doesn't mean he has been released. It just means that for the foreseeable future, the creative team have been told, 'don't expect Roman Reigns back', and as such, they are writing storylines with that in mind. Doesn't mean they can't make a sudden change as they have done in the past, but it does mean, at least for a little while, we can expect to not see Roman Reigns on our TV screens.
