Roman Reigns is seen as one of the front-runners to be the next ‘face’ of the WWE. The promotion has been giving him some strong booking for the same and he has been on top of his game as well.
However, the journey of Reigns to the top has taken a big roadblock after he was suspended by the WWE for 30 days after a violation of the company’s wellness policy.
The announcement was made by WWE on their official website and this comes just a day after the company announced a triple threat between Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose for the WWE Championship at Battleground. According to Dave Meltzer, WWE knew about the violation before Money in the Bank and Roman is expected to return at Battleground for the match.
WWE is yet to release more details on the situation but the Social media was busy buzzing about the suspension and here are some reactions.
I apologize to my family, friends and fans for my mistake in violating WWE’s wellness policy. No excuses. I own it.

Roman Reigns will be back just in time for the draft. Maybe he will be drafted to rehab. #Roman #RomanReigns

Roman's suspension could be the best thing happened to him. They can't portray him as the perfect babyface anymore. #RomanReigns #WWE
