Roman Reigns' Potential WWE Return Date Revealed

Roman Reigns looks set to make his WWE return earlier than expected.

It emerged in recent weeks that Reigns was advertised for the October 27 edition of Friday Night SmackDown in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Reigns has since been advertised for an earlier show, though, and the BOK Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma has announced that Reigns will be appearing on the Friday, October 13 edition of SmackDown. This will be the post-Fastlane episode of SmackDown.

Reigns hasn't appeared on WWE TV since shortly after SummerSlam. The 38-year-old successfully defended the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against Jey Uso in a Tribal Combat Match at the August pay-per-view.

Reigns will reportedly next defend the Undisputed WWE Universal Title at Crown Jewel on November 4 in Saudi Arabia. John Cena is also advertised for Crown Jewel.

The drama within The Bloodline has continued in Roman Reigns' absence. Jey Uso is now on Monday Night Raw but Jimmy Uso has since rejoined the faction. He and Solo Sikoa will face John Cena in a Handicap Match at Fastlane on October 7.
