WWE Star Discussed As Roman Reigns WWE Royal Rumble 2024 Opponent Revealed

WWE

The Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns is set to return to our screens in January 2023 just in time for the Royal Rumble.

Reigns was last seen in the ring defeating LA Knight at WWE Crown Jewel on November 4, 2023, in Saudi Arabia.

As recently reported, Reigns’ next appearance will be on the December 15 episode of the show in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

It was also previously confirmed that Reigns would be in action at Royal Rumble on January 27, 2024.

Dave Meltzer has provided further details for Reigns in the run-up to the Royal Rumble in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, writing:

Reigns is booked on the 12/15 Smackdown in Green Bay, 1/5 in Vancouver and 1/19 in Atlanta.

The latter two shows already had two of the best advances. This would be to set up his Rumble match.

Right now, or at least as of early in the week, it wasn’t locked in who that would be with.

A few names have been considered, Orton being one of them. Orton, Owens and Knight would on paper seem like the top names but none are a lock and Knight was supposed to go in another direction as of last week.

Cody Rhodes recently announced himself as the first entrant in the Men’s Royal Rumble match.

Before the January Premium Live Event, Rhodes will have to deal with Shinsuke Nakamura.
