In the midst of a brutal steel cage main event between Seth Rollins and CM Punk, Reigns made a shocking return, dragging Rollins out of the cage to hand him the win—only to unleash a relentless beating on him outside the ring.

After his shocking return on Monday Night RAW on Netflix, WWE's Roman Reigns sent a message to fans. He posted an image of him and his Wiseman, Paul Heyman, backstage at Madison Square Garden. Reigns is demanding acknowledgment from the WWE Universe.

"The OTC" Roman Reigns has accumulated multiple records in his illustrious WWE career, however, this one record might be broken this year at WrestleMania.

Fans and insiders were perfectly aware that the return of Roman Reigns was now imminent. At the beginning of 2025, the former world champion had defeated Solo Sikoa in the first episode of Raw on Netflix and had been among the protagonists of the men's Royal Rumble match in early February.

Rollins was visibly shocked when Reigns emerged as his attacker. He was hit with a Superman Punch and spear. Reigns then hit Rollins with his signature Curb Stomp move. He then tried to set him up for one on the steel ring steps as Rollins did at the Royal Rumble.
