During an interview with ESPN to promote the launch of WWE 2K20, for which Reigns is one of the two cover stars, alongside Becky Lynch, ‘The Big Dog’ himself has admitted that he struggled and things got dark when asked if he doubted he’d ever return.
In case you didn’t know…
In October on an episode of Monday Night RAW, Roman Reigns broke kayfabe and introduced himself by his real name to the live crowd, before revealing he was relinquishing the Universal Title as he had leukemia and would be taking an indefinite amount of time off to battle the illness.
However, in February Roman Reigns returned to the ring to make the special announcement that his battle was successful, he was now in remission and he was returning to wrestling for WWE.
The heart of the matter
During a recent interview with ESPN, Roman Reigns was asked about his time away from WWE battling leukemia and if there were any particularly dark periods where he thought he’d never return to wrestling,
Reigns went on to add that he had arthritis from his feet to his hips and that he was only able to get through it with doctors and medication.
What’s next?
Currently, Roman Reigns is enjoying doing the press rounds for Fast and Furious Presents: Hobbs and Shaw as well as being involved in a ‘mystery backstage attacker’ storyline across both Monday Night RAW and SmackDown Live.
