The timing of Roman Reigns' September absence revealed

Roman Reigns was one of the main characters at WWE Clash in Paris. In the opening match of the show, The Tribal Chief defeated Bronson Reed, but the victory came at a cost. After winning, Bron Breakker made his appearance and delivered a Spear on top of the announcer's table. From that moment on, we witnessed a massacre on Reigns, who was aided by his cousin Jey Uso, although he also received his share.

The former Universal champion was taken out on a stretcher after receiving a series of Tsunamis. The incident is directly related to his absence from television, which, as reported by Mike Johnson, a journalist from PW Insider, will be from September 2 to September 26, 2025, due to the filming of the movie Street Fighter, where he will play the role of Akuma.

Reigns is scheduled to be on set from September 2 until the end of the month, wrapping up at some point during the week of September 26, provided everything goes as planned.

It seems that, with Roman Reigns' absence, the weight of Raw will fall on CM Punk, who is currently in a rivalry with CM Punk and is rumored to soon have an extra partner: AJ Lee. Tonight, on Monday Night Raw's show airing from La Défense Arena in Paris, a venue that managed to bring in over 30,000 spectators at Clash in Paris, we might have more news on the matter.

With this absence, everything indicates that Roman Reigns will not be available for Wrestlepalooza, and his return will be more focused on Crown Jewel, an event set for October 11 in Australia. There are also rumors that he will lead one of the Survivor Series teams, but that is still to be confirmed.
