After winning “The ULA Fala” from Solo Sikoa, Roman Reigns’ goal was to get back the Undisputed Championship he lost to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania last year. But he couldn’t win the Royal Rumble main event and lost his chance to secure his spot for WrestleMania 41.
His dreams were crushed when CM Punk tossed him out of the ring. The WWE universe thought he would return to the next WWE shows and explain his plans, maybe even start a feud with Punk. After all, Punk threw him out despite them being on the same team last year at Survivor Series.
However, those guesses were wrong. Roman Reigns went on vacation again, and the real reason for his absence has been revealed. According to PWInsider Elite, WWE confirmed that Roman Reigns is “out of action” just to explain his absence from TV.
Roman Reigns will be out of action for the foreseeable future 💔🤯

Reports say The Tribal Chief is taking a short break after the Royal Rumble. WWE hasn’t set his next appearance yet, but he is almost certain to compete at WrestleMania 41. His vacation is part of the storyline to make his return more exciting.
After his Royal Rumble battle with CM Punk and Seth Rollins, fans expect Reigns to make a dramatic comeback, possibly interfering in matches and restarting his rivalries with Rollins and Punk.
Roman Reigns set for huge showdown with CM Punk & Seth Rollins
WrestleMania 41 is going to be amazing with a huge triple-threat match between Roman Reigns, CM Punk, and Seth Rollins. This match became possible after CM Punk threw both Roman and Seth out of the ring.
Although there was no plan before the Royal Rumble, Seth’s attack on Roman made this match seem like the right choice. WWE has been building up the rivalry between these three, using their history and bad blood to make it even more exciting.
