Roman Reigns details why he was not on the card for major WWE Premium Live Event this year
Top WWE Superstar Roman Reigns recently revealed why he was not part of the recent major show, Money In The Bank.
As one of the biggest stars in the company, it was surprising that The Tribal Chief was not featured on one of the biggest shows of the year. However, since WrestleMania 38 in April, Roman has been working a lighter schedule with WWE.
During a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, Reigns explained why he did not appear on Money In The Bank last July.
"Well, the strategy for the first few months after Mania [38] was to be on Money in the Bank but once the show was changed and it was moved away from the Allegiant Stadium into the [MGM Grand Garden] Arena, we re-strategized and we just kind of stayed on the path of hitting these huge ones going into the winter so, once Money in the Bank was moved, I was pulled from that and we knew we were gonna hit SummerSlam and then also Cardiff being a huge stadium show as well, being a huge international show, it was just I knew I was gonna be a part of that one so, for me, it wasn’t a surprise."
