The OTC has vowed to remain active throughout the summer.
‘The OTC’ Roman Reigns captured the World Heavyweight Champion in the main event of Night 2 of WrestleMania 42. Since capturing the title, Reigns has vowed to remain full-time and active throughout the summer.
“I’m gonna take y’all to Monday Night Raw tomorrow night. I’ll see y’all tomorrow night. That’s where we’ll see y’all, alright? All this part-time crap, we’re gonna fix that. Y’all better make some room, because y’all gonna see my ass all summer.”
Reigns has since made continuous appearances on Raw and is currently feuding with Jacob Fatu. The two are set to collide with the World Heavyweight title on the line at the upcoming 2026 edition of the Backlash PLE on May 9 in Tampa, Florida.
After Backlash, Reigns is anticipated to retain the title and feud with more big names. With the recent Bloodline drama, it is also possible that he continues the storylines involving the Bloodline members, especially with Solo Sikoa openly declaring that Roman is not his Tribal Chief.
