Roman Reigns’ epic return at SummerSlam cemented itself as one of the best moments in wrestling history. The reason is obvious and there’s no rocket science behind it. However, this time, the re-arrival of the Head of the Table was a bit more special as it, by default, called for the civil war countdown. But does the former Universal Champion seem to be at his best to jump into the hardest battle against his family? A visible fluctuation in body weight made the fans think twice.

While they deem their favorite superstar to be fit and fine, his underlying physical complications automatically slide into the discussion. Reigns last wrestled a full-fledged match back in WrestleMania 40. He was sent home packing by reigning world champion Cody Rhodes. The phenomenal 1300+ journey as the best in his league bestowed Reigns with all the flowers he deserved. Nevertheless, the former WWE champion took some time off to refresh himself as the Bloodline trajectory transformed. Sikoa took the chair and recruited Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa in his pursuit of building a new Bloodline.

Things became extremely unbearable after Paul Heyman’s humiliating beatdown. Finally, the ball started to roll on a civil war with Reigns firing back at the spectacular SummerSlam night. He returned and handed his cousin Sikoa a small trailer of what he could do.

The dashing superstar came down in his ‘go-to’ black and red Air Jordon boots. But something looked off about his charismatic presentation. Dave Meltzer pinpointed it in his recent tweet, noting he had lost some pounds. While on the surface, it looks all good, fans immediately jumped to chew over his health, which has been a recurring theme in the WWE and Roman Reigns‘ dynamics.

Fans went on talking about the reality behind such a tweet.

Roman Reigns’ health condition invites speculation online after recent physical change 

Reigns has had a rag-to-riches journey in his life and career. Although not necessarily financially but physically, and psychologically. The man is a born fighter. He not only dismantled loads of his bitterest opponents inside the squared circle but also beat the rarest disease of leukemia. He was first diagnosed with the life-threatening condition at 22. In 2018, the devil inside his body tragically returned as he took some time off WWE TV to look after himself. The 39-year-old passed it off again. Although, currently, the exact of his disease is unknown, the medication is on. Fans believe the weight reduced because of the side effects of the treatment.

Some fans, however, see this transformation in a more positive light. They deemed it to be more chiseled than being skinny at all. They find it more appealing and exciting than before.
