Report: WWE Changes Roman Reigns' Road To WrestleMania Plans

Roman Reigns has been a staple of Friday Night SmackDown since being moved to the brand in October 2019, but the former Undisputed WWE Universal Champion is set to become a featured star on Monday Night Raw, at least for the early portion of 2025.

That is according to WrestleVotes, who reported on WrestleVotes Radio:

"We are told the plans as of now, what we'll see are Roman Reigns featured on Monday Night Raw and Netflix more so than SmackDown, for at least the beginning part of the calendar year. We don't have confirmation on any official roster move, however there are plans for WWE's biggest draw to be a part of Raw on Netflix much past episode number one.

"A source added that Netflix knows exactly what Roman Reigns brings to the table as far as viewership and credibility, and they are all for it. So Roman Reigns will be a key part of Monday Night Raw past episode number one, throughout the Royal Rumble, and I would imagine all throughout the WrestleMania season."

WWE Raw will move to Netflix from January 6, 2025 as part of a 10-year deal worth $5 billion. Reigns is already being advertised for the Raw premiere on the streaming service from the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, California.

Roman Reigns' plans for WrestleMania 41 are currently unknown. Reports in October noted a Triple Threat of Cody Rhodes vs. The Rock vs. Roman Reigns was 'on the table' for WrestleMania. Separate reports, however, have claimed that The Rock has told WWE he won't be able to work the company's biggest show of the year.
