During Sunday night’s SummerSlam pay-per-view event, Roman Reigns made his shocking return to WWE as he took out the new WWE Universal Champion Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman to close out SummerSlam.
Reigns has been out of action since before WrestleMania 36. He opted to stay away due to having two infant children and not wanting to risk bringing COVID-19 home to them. He said, “The decision was taken mainly because each performer travels so much, and we are all such a diverse group and from all over the place. I’m not convinced, and I can’t trust the fact that everybody is taking it as seriously and locking themselves down at home like I am. I trust my life with my co-workers every time I step foot in the ring, but I just can’t put the same trust when it has my children, my wife and my family involved. But I don’t want it to come off as I am taking a stand against the company at all, because I love the WWE. I’ve been a part of this company just since I was a little boy. That’s why I always take it so personally when I represent them.”
