The status of Roman Reigns for the upcoming WWE Money in the Bank 2023 event in London, England has now officially been confirmed.
As we covered already, Reigns was recently added to the list of names advertised for Money in the Bank on WWE.com, but those lists don’t always end up being accurate.
Now, we seem to have a more definitive answer, as WWE has sent a press releasing announcing that Reigns will indeed be at Money in the Bank on July 1 at the 02 Arena, as well as at SmackDown the night before.
The release is as follows:
STAMFORD, Conn., May 17, 2023 – WWE® (NYSE: WWE) today announced that Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns will appear live at The O2 in London for SmackDown on Friday, June 30, and Money In The Bank on Saturday, July 1, 2023.
Final remaining single event tickets for SmackDown and Money In The Bank will be available this Friday, May 19 at 10am BST via Ticketmaster.co.uk and TheO2.co.uk.
This marks the first time ever that SmackDown will broadcast live and in primetime from the UK at 8pm local on BT Sport. Money In The Bank marks the first WWE Premium Live Event to be held in London in over two decades.
The other names on WWE.com that are advertised for Money in the Bank currently are Cody Rhodes, Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley, Seth ‘Freakin’ Rollins and Becky Lynch.
Drew McIntyre was originally on that list but was removed and replaced with Reigns a couple of weeks ago, as McIntyre’s uncertain status with WWE continues to come into question.
We also know that Reigns is set to team with Solo Sikoa to challenge Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia on May 27, and he’s being advertised for SummerSlam on August 5 as well.
