Roman Reigns Scheduled for WWE RAW Appearance Amid Street Fighter Movie Role – Despite ongoing speculation that Roman Reigns might soon be written off WWE television due to his upcoming role as Akuma in the Street Fighter movie, it appears the Undisputed WWE Champion isn’t going anywhere just yet.
Recent rumors pointed to Reigns potentially stepping away from programming to begin filming, but earlier reports clarified that his work on the movie isn’t scheduled to begin until September 2. That timeline has now been reinforced by a new update from the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia.
The venue announced via social media today that Reigns is officially scheduled to appear on the August 18 episode of Monday Night RAW, which will be held at the Wells Fargo Center.
While WWE has referenced recent attacks on Reigns as part of a potential injury angle, there is no confirmed date for when—or if—he will be temporarily written off television. His confirmed RAW appearance suggests that, for now, he will continue to play a central role in WWE’s programming.
This update helps to calm immediate concerns from fans who feared Reigns might vanish from television without warning. With WWE continuing to promote his presence, it’s likely he’ll be featured prominently in upcoming episodes leading into the fall.
