Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns will return to WWE for multiple dates in October.
Last year saw Reigns sign a lucrative contract with WWE which has seen the Tribal Chief appear and compete far less than in previous years. Reigns has so far had nine matches this year, with six at Premium Live Events, three at untelevised live events, and zero on broadcast television.
Roman Reigns hasn't been seen since the August 11, 2023, episode of WWE SmackDown, which saw the Head of the Table gloat about his Tribal Combat victory at SummerSlam. That show also saw Jey Uso superkick Reigns before quitting The Bloodline and SmackDown and has since moved to Monday Night Raw.
Reigns is now advertised to make his return inside the BOK Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The show will be the first episode of SmackDown after next weekend's Fastlane Premium Live Event. Reigns will also defend his WWE Undisputed Universal Championship against Sami Zayn at a live event from Kansas City. He'll finish up October with an appearance on the October 27 episode of Smackdown from Milwaukee.
Other names advertised for the show include John Cena, Asuka, The Street Profits, Charlotte Flair, and Bobby Lashley.

Reigns isn't expected to compete at next weekend's Fastlane Premium Live Event, but it has been reported that he will be a part of WWE's return to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia for WWE Crown Jewel on November 4. Reigns is often used on these highly lucrative events, including at WWE Night of Champions in May, where he and Solo Sikoa lost to Sami Zayn & Kevin Owens.
