Roman Reigns has endured a very testing time in his personal life lately. The sudden demise of his father, Sika Anao’i must have left his world unsettled as the Big Dog himself penned down an emotional post. Also, apart from the ultimate grief of losing a parent, and a guide, Reigns has other issues to worry about. The Samoan star ended his historic WWE Undisputed Universal Championship reign in April and has currently been on a long hiatus to process the setback. That said, the real setback in his life was a constant battle with chronic myeloid leukemia (An incurable yet treatable blood cancer) since 2007.

But despite all these hurdles, the Tribal Chief never forgets to nurture his benevolent self from time to time, as he did this Tuesday, June 26, by visiting a hospital in Florida.

But the longest reigning Undisputed Universal Champion didn’t only carry the division on his shoulders, but also gracefully represented all the philanthropic trends the company ever set up. On April 2024, a video on Twitter showcased Reigns making the day of a young boy with a surprise visit to him as part of WWE’s Make a Wish initiative. The way he sat beside the kid and greeted him back sent doting fans into an instant meltdown over Twitter.
