Roman Reigns to undergo WWE schedule change due to shoulder injury?

1 years ago By Sports Desk

Roman Reigns, the formidable “Tribal Chief” of WWE, has held his title for nearly three years, displaying an impressive streak of good health throughout his reign. 

However, recent reports of an injury during his SummerSlam match with Jey Uso have sparked concerns about his condition. Despite managing to finish the match and retain the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship, the injury has left fans wondering about the extent of the damage and its potential impact on Reigns’ future appearances.

Roman Reigns underwent shoulder injury during WWE SummerSlam

Fightful Select, a reliable source in the wrestling community, has confirmed the reports of Reigns’ injury during the SummerSlam main event. The injury apparently occurred early in the match. While the injury doesn’t seem to have affected Reigns’ immediate plans, as he’s scheduled for “WWE SmackDown” this Friday, uncertainties linger regarding the nature and severity of the injury.

Although Reigns’ appearance schedule remains unchanged, the specific details of the injury remain undisclosed. Fans are left to speculate whether this injury could sideline Reigns from wrestling for an extended period.

Since his triumphant return as The Tribal Chief in August 2020, Roman Reigns has undoubtedly left an indelible mark on WWE. Holding the Undisputed Universal Championship, he has not only enjoyed creative freedom but has also become one of WWE’s premier draws. Reigns’ influence has been particularly notable during a period of company-wide changes, coinciding with Triple H’s role as WWE Content Chief Officer since July 2022.

No schedule change for Roman Reigns despite injury

One significant change attributed to Roman Reigns’ influence has been a shift in the main event scene of premium live events. Traditionally, singles bouts have often taken precedence in headlining these shows. However, Reigns’ impact has been felt in pushing tag team matches into the main event slot.

Premium live events like WrestleMania 39 Night One, Night of Champions 2023, and Money in the Bank 2023 have all been headlined by tag team matches featuring Bloodline members. This shift in focus has elevated the significance of tag team wrestling, with Reigns contributing significantly to these high-stakes tag team contests.

Roman Reigns’ involvement in the Bloodline Civil War match at MITB 2023 saw a surprising outcome where he suffered a pinfall loss to The Usos. This development has set the stage for a Tribal Court segment on an upcoming episode of SmackDown, generating anticipation and speculation among fans.

Reigns is also rumored to face Jey Uso at SummerSlam 2023, marking their first singles encounter in nearly 1000 days. This impending clash could potentially redefine their rivalry and Reigns’ title reign.
