Roman Reigns was ruling the WWE landscape with an iron fist as the longest reigning World Champion of the modern era, flanked by his Wiseman Paul Heyman and The Bloodline. However, the era of the Roman Empire came to its demise at WrestleMania XL when The Tribal Chief lost his Undisputed WWE title to Cody Rhodes with his reign ending at 1,316 days.
Ever since that night, he has been absent from WWE television programming with no timetable to return as of now. However, with the onset of the WWE Draft 2024, the company has the opportunity to give a fresh direction to Roman Reigns, being with switching his brand to join upon his return.
Here are 3 reasons for Roman Reigns becoming a part of the RAW roster would be a pivotal decision:
1. A new landscape for the Island of Relevancy
Ever since Roman Reigns donned the armor of The Tribal Chief in 2020, he has been a prime fixture of SmackDown with his Island of Relevancy establishing its base on the blue brand giving a major boost to the show’s credibility. WWE can do the same for the longest-running weekly episodic television show in history, RAW by making Roman Reigns the top attraction for Monday Nights upon his return from hiatus.
2. Conquering the World Heavyweight Championship for another record-setting reign
Much like he did on SmackDown with the Undisputed WWE Championship, Roman Reigns can add major value and credibility to the World Heavyweight Championship which has been in existence since last year. Moreover, this could set the tone for another lengthy title reign for The Head of the Table and establish the World title as one of the richest prizes in the business in a short period.
3. Roman Reigns’ Bloodline on RAW
Following Roman Reigns’ absence, The Enforcer Solo Sikoa took over the reins of The Bloodline and added new member Tama Tonga with the possibility of a new member, Jacob Fatu also speculated. This could be revealed to be orchestrated by The Final Boss, The Rock taking over the leadership from Reigns for his failure at WrestleMania XL. This could lead to Reigns joining RAW and making his own Bloodline with former members, Main Event Jey Uso and the outcasted Jimmy Uso having two dominant Anoa’i family factions on both WWE shows.
