Roman Reigns, known as the “Tribal Chief,” was defeated on Monday’s edition of WWE Raw by Seth Rollins and his faction, but he is set to return to Raw in two weeks. According to a recent report by Pwinsider, Reigns will not begin filming his new movie until September. He has been cast as Akuma in the upcoming “Street Fighter” film, with production scheduled to start on September 2 and last for approximately four weeks, potentially wrapping up around September 26. Cody Rhodes is also part of the movie, though sources indicate his filming schedule won’t be as extensive as Reigns’. Additionally, the Wells Fargo Center announced that Reigns will appear at the Raw show in Philadelphia on August 18. Meanwhile, next week’s Raw will take place at the Bell Centre in Montreal, featuring a women’s world championship match and other exciting bouts, but without Reigns being advertised.
Fan Take: This update is significant for WWE fans as it confirms Reigns will soon return to the ring, ending speculation about his prolonged absence. His involvement in a major Hollywood project also highlights WWE’s growing influence in mainstream entertainment, which could further elevate the sport’s visibility and appeal.
