WWE issues storyline medical update on Roman Reigns, Paul Heyman
Following the beatdown on Roman Reigns by The Vision at Clash in Paris on Sunday, WWE has updated on Reigns’ status on last night’s Raw, stating that Reigns has suffered “multiple fractured ribs at the hands of Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed” and that “The OTC Roman Reigns is out indefinitely.” It has been said by various news outlets that this injury angle was used as a way to write Reigns out of the storyline for at least a month so that he can head to Australia to film his part in the upcoming Street Fighter movie.
AJ Lee Return Teased On WWE Raw
WWE teased the return of AJ Lee last night on Raw as a promo segment between Becky Lynch and CM Punk ended with Lynch slapping Punk and him saying to her, “You’re gonna regret putting your hands on me.” After the segment, Punk was stopped by Raw GM Adam Pearce as he hunted backstage for both Seth Rollins and Lynch, and Pearce told him that they had already left the venue and to go after them on next week’s Raw. Punk then asked Pearce where the next SmackDown would be taking place, and Pearce said Chicago, Punk and Lee’s hometown. Punk chuckled, patted Pearce on the shoulder and said “tremendous” before walking away.
