Real life cut into our pro wrestling world on Monday Night Raw this week, when Roman Reigns announced he is battling with leukemia for the second time in his life. For that reason, he is leaving WWE for now, though he vows to return after beating the cancer.
Cameras were rolling backstage when he came back through the curtain, and caught him receiving hugs from everyone: Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Paul Heyman (who made sure to tell him he’s not alone), Nia Jax (who he tried to be strong for), Braun Strowman (who told Roman he’s here for him for anything he needs), and many, many more. It’s all so very powerful, and I just want to watch it forever and ever.
