Michael Cole provides injury update on Roman Reigns & Paul Heyman on WWE Raw (September 1, 2025)

Both former Bloodline members have suffered injuries at Clash in Paris!

‘The OTC’ Roman Reigns clashed with Bronson Reed in the first match of last weekend’s Clash in Paris. The event took place on Sunday, August 31, 2025, at the Paris La Défense Arena in Nanterre, Paris, France.

This was WWE’s second PLE in France, following Backlash 2024, and the first to be held in the Paris metropolitan area. The PLE featured three title clashes, along with a Good Ol’ Fashioned Donnybrook match and two singles matches.

The show featured John Cena‘s first and final appearance in the city of Paris, as well as Becky Lynch joining forces with Seth Rollins, attacking CM Punk to help Rollins retain the World Heavyweight title in the fatal four-way match involving Jey Uso and LA Knight.

Reigns managed to successfully pin Reed to pick up the win at Clash in Paris. After the match, Reigns confronted Paul Heyman and asked for the ‘Shoe-La-Fala’.

Reigns choked out Heyman after taking the Shoe-La-Fala, then started singing and tossing shoes into the crowd. Just then, Bron Breakker appeared and speared Reigns through the announce desk. What followed was a vicious and devastating beatdown of Reigns. Jey Uso came in to aid Reigns after witnessing enough, but fell prey to the numbers game.

Reed went on to deliver three back-to-back Tsunamis despite security’s presence. Reigns was gasping for air as he was loaded onto a stretcher. Heyman was also taken to the hospital due to the attack by Reigns.

Roman Reigns is out of action indefinitely

During the fallout show of Monday Night Raw, Michael Cole, as announced, provided an update on both Reigns and Heyman.

Cole, on the commentary desk, announced that Paul Heyman has suffered a contusion of the larynx after being choked out by the OTC.

On the other hand, Roman Reigns has suffered multiple broken ribs at the hands of Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed and will be out of action for an ‘indefinite time’.

Roman Reigns is scheduled to film the Street Fighter movie

According to PW Insider, Reigns was written off TV at Clash in Paris to begin filming for Street Fighter. He’s scheduled to be filming throughout September.

This is likely the reason behind WWE writing off Reigns and explaining his absence while he wraps up shooting for the film. On the other hand, Heyman, too, is written off TV to enjoy some time off from the spotlight, while Seth Rollins writes a new chapter in their feud with CM Punk alongside Becky Lynch.
