Roman Reigns is officially returning at the 2026 Royal Rumble—but now it looks like WWE is planning something huge for his entrance.

In an update from January 24, 2026, just days before the Royal Rumble in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, fans in the area spotted a giant replica of Roman Reigns’ iconic OTC hand gesture being transported in a vehicle. The massive prop, still covered in protective plastic and held down by structural supports, was clearly visible and quickly circulated across social media.

Though WWE has not confirmed the entrance details, the sighting strongly suggests that Reigns could receive a custom, oversized spectacle entrance when he makes his return at the Rumble on January 31 inside the King Abdullah Financial District.

This would align with WWE’s long history of producing elaborate entrances for major Saudi Arabia events—and for a star of Roman’s level, it’s no surprise they’d go big. With the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion having been absent from weekly programming since November 2025, WWE officially confirmed his return during the January 23 episode of SmackDown in Montreal, airing a video package to hype his comeback at the Premium Live Event.

Now, with a towering OTC hand structure en route to the venue, the expectation is that Reigns’ return will be more than just a pop—it’ll be a full-scale production.

What do you think Roman Reigns’ entrance at the Royal Rumble will look like? Is WWE about to give him his biggest one yet? Drop your predictions below.
