Roman Reigns was one of the top contenders in the Royal Rumble, hoping to win the WWE Undisputed Championship again. After reclaiming his Ula Fala from Solo Sikoa on his Monday Night Raw debut, Roman seemed ready for victory in the Royal Rumble.
But, to everyone’s shock, he was suddenly eliminated by CM Punk. While focused on tossing Seth Rollins out of the ring, Reigns was unexpectedly thrown over the top rope by Punk, leaving him and Paul Heyman incredibly stunned.
Roman Reigns, known for his strong run in WWE, was shocked when he was eliminated early from the Royal Rumble. He and Seth Rollins were both thrown out by CM Punk in a surprising double elimination. Just as they were trying to process it, Logan Paul quickly tossed Punk out of the ring.
The three men were left standing outside, confused and angry, staring at each other. Roman Reigns seemed especially upset and shocked. He didn’t even know who eliminated him at first until he saw the replay on live TV.
“How could you do that to me? We literally partnered up like a month ago”

One could read this post as @PatMcAfeeShow calling @WWERollins an A-HOLE. Considering Mr. Rollins' actions last night at @WWE #RoyalRumble, I would suggest Mr. Rollins' lack of anger management has been provoked enough! https://t.co/MMZ4AdRwE2
