Roman Reigns made his long-awaited WWE return last week!
On the September 13, 2024 episode of WWE SmackDown, Roman Reigns made his WWE return to save Cody Rhodes, when the American Nightmare got attacked by The Bloodline inside the steel cage, after his successful title defense against Solo Sikoa.
During the brawl, Roman & Cody had each other’s back and took Tama Tonga & Tonga Loa with their finishers, but Solo Sikoa & Jacob Fatu escaped backstage.
After the chaotic start of SmackDown on the USA Network, Nick Aldis announced that Solo Sikoa & Jacob Fatu wanted a tag team match against Roman Reigns & Cody Rhodes in a tag team match at Bad Blood.
Cody & Roman hesitated to team up with each other initially, however Bloodline’s attack made them sign the contract to make the tag team match official for Bad Blood. As Roman made his return and the match was announced for Bad Blood, here we take a look at Roman’s status for next week’s episode of SmackDown.
