Roman Reigns is officially returning to WWE RAW this Monday, and it sounds like he has plenty to say after the recent issues involving Jacob Fatu.
WWE RAW General Manager Adam Pearce confirmed the news on May 17 through an Instagram video while also announcing another new match for the upcoming episode. Pearce confirmed that Reigns will appear live in Greensboro, North Carolina to address the situation involving Jacob Fatu following the chaos between the two stars.
“After what happened between the Samoan Werewolf Jacob Fatu and the OTC, your World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns, what could Roman possibly have to say? Tune in tomorrow night. Find out.”
Pearce also announced a bizarre six-man tornado tag team match involving multiple versions of El Grande Americano and masked competitors.
“Trios tornado tag. You heard me, right? El Grande Americano y los Americanos contra Grande Americano original y los Americanos hermanos. All six men in the ring at the same time, all wearing masks, all Grande Americano. If you’re confused, so am I.”
The May 18 edition of WWE RAW will also feature the continuation of Oba Femi’s open challenge after nobody answered it last week. In addition, Brie Bella and Paige will defend the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships against Judgment Day members Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez, with Liv Morgan set to be involved as well.
