| WWE Money in the Bank Roman Reigns rumors |
Here are three major signs that point to The Head of the Table making his epic comeback to WWE soon:
🔥 #3. Subtle Shield Reference During Seth Rollins' Entrance
On the latest episode of RAW, Seth Rollins made his entrance flanked by Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker, and Bronson Reed. As the group entered the arena dressed in sharp suits, commentators Michael Cole and Pat McAfee couldn’t help but draw a comparison to The Shield—the iconic faction that featured Rollins, Roman Reigns, and Dean Ambrose (Jon Moxley).
McAfee noted that it had been a long time since Rollins was surrounded by such dominant forces, referencing his former days with The Shield. While the group didn’t replicate the look or feel of The Shield, the mention served as a nostalgic nod and could be a strategic tease by WWE to signal Reigns' impending return.
👀 #2. Paul Heyman’s Subtle Digs at Roman Reigns
During a fiery segment, Paul Heyman introduced each member of the newly formed heel alliance, but his choice of words was particularly telling. He hyped Bron Breakker as “The Dog of WWE” from a “bloodline of bada**es”—a clear play on Reigns' "Big Dog" persona and Bloodline legacy.
Even more direct, Heyman claimed that Bronson Reed had inflicted more damage on Seth Rollins in one night than Roman Reigns had in 10 years. Finally, Heyman commanded the WWE Universe to “acknowledge Seth Rollins”—a catchphrase made iconic by Reigns himself.
These pointed jabs are uncharacteristic of Heyman, especially after months of silence about Reigns. It’s likely WWE is building toward a climactic confrontation between Roman and the faction that betrayed him.
💪 #1. CM Punk and Sami Zayn Need Backup – Enter Roman Reigns?
With Seth Rollins now backed by Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed, the babyface team of CM Punk and Sami Zayn is clearly outnumbered. Although Jey Uso was in the mix, his title feud with Logan Paul has kept him distracted.
At Saturday Night’s Main Event, Reed blindsided CM Punk, shifting the power dynamic in Rollins’ favor. Now, Punk and Zayn are in desperate need of a powerhouse to even the odds. Given Roman Reigns’ history with Paul Heyman and his betrayal at WrestleMania 41, this storyline setup feels like the perfect time for The Tribal Chief to strike back.
A potential alliance of Roman Reigns, CM Punk, and Sami Zayn against Rollins’ faction would be a dream team with Survivor Series: WarGames vibes written all over it.
🧠 Final Thoughts: Is Roman Reigns' WWE Return Imminent?
All signs are pointing to Roman Reigns making his WWE return very soon. With subtle Shield references, Paul Heyman’s pointed insults, and the need for a top-tier babyface to challenge Rollins’ growing faction, the return of The Tribal Chief could be closer than ever.
Keep your eyes on WWE RAW and upcoming premium live events, because Roman Reigns' comeback could shake up the entire WWE landscape once again.
