Roman Reigns‘ battle with leukemia began when he was 22 years old, and it has been a nightmare for him ever since. The former WWE Champion has been fighting cancer for more than 17 years, and the bad news is that it has yet to be healed. Not only that, but the Tribal Chief was taking medicine at this year’s WrestleMania as well.

This has created one concern among admirers, which is whether the real Tribal Chief is now healthy before his return. Unfortunately, there has been no news from Reigns on this matter since he went underground after his tragic loss to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40. Although Reigns is expected to return shortly, he is likely still on medicine.

So far, we know that Reigns is in remission, which means that while he does not have cancer at the moment, there is a possibility that it will return at any point. Something similar happened in 2018 when Reigns left WWE for a few months because of cancer but later returned, and since then this sickness has not returned for Reigns thus far. Furthermore, the Head of the Table has been doing a lot to avert this.

The return of Roman Reigns will be regarded as one of the biggest in the history of the wrestling industry. The reason for this is how big of a babyface he will be when he makes his much-anticipated comeback. Reigns aka the true Tribal Chief will have a lot of momentum, and it will be intriguing to watch how he can reclaim his place in Bloodline.

The rumors so far state that Roman Reigns will have a Bloodline on his side too, but maybe this new Bloodline will form later rather than at SummerSlam.

Roman Reigns may not have a Bloodline at SummerSlam

According to current conjecture, WWE plans to launch the Bloodline Civil War storyline shortly after SummerSlam. As a result, there are reports that when Reigns returns, he will have his own Bloodline, but it appears that things are changing at the moment. At this point, it appears like Reigns will be returning on his own at SummerSlam and will have other wrestlers team up with him later this year.

This will be done so that the other faction members can join the Tribal Chief one at a time. In this manner, the group’s credibility will gradually but steadily grow, and the faction will eventually seem spectacular and ready to fight its opponents. Due to this, the appropriate time will also be taken by the faction to increase the heat in the feud and, most probably, this storyline will end at the Survivor Series.

At this WWE PLE, a war games match can be done or a traditional five-on-five elimination match can be done. Only time will tell what WWE will do with the Bloodline in the future. What do you think of Roman Reigns’ potential return to SummerSlam? Drop your views in the comments below.
