Roman Reigns’ status in WWE has been widely discussed ever since he hinted at starting a new phase of his career during a post-show promo in Trenton, New Jersey over the weekend. It has since been revealed that “The Tribal Chief” recently signed a new WWE contract that requires fewer house show dates, but then several outlets discovered Reigns wasn’t being advertised for any house shows or SmackDown tapings for July or August of this year, causing fans to worry that the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion might be outright gone from WWE programming for most of the Summer. 

Spoke to someone over at WWE regarding Roman & his schedule moving forward.It’s not expected for Roman to take extended time off. He will be on PLEs & TV. The only change will be with smaller market house show, which is why he showed his gratitude to the fans in Trenton NJ. pic.twitter.com/Pjnb9nopkc
