Due to injuries he incurred during and after the 2025 men’s Royal Rumble event, Roman Reigns is “out of action,” according to a statement released by WWE. But according to Pwinsider Elite, these ailments are not real.
The plot of Reigns being sidelined is only a literary device, as we have already discussed on eWn. Reigns’ write-off is meant to justify his absence from forthcoming events; WrestleMania 41 is currently scheduled to feature a match between Reigns and CM Punk and Seth Rollins.
According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the angle was also taken to prevent Reigns from going to the Elimination Chamber because he would have to be pinned or submitted during the match and wasn’t winning anyhow.
Notably, unless there is a compelling storyline reason to do so, WWE typically doesn’t have its top babyface stars pinned.
