Roman Reigns' recent WWE appearance was canceled due to one reason - Reports

As per reports, Roman Reigns' recent appearance at the 2023 SummerSlam's post-show press conference was cut short due to a specific reason discussed ahead.

Current Undisputed WWE Universal Champion went through a ferocious Tribal Combat match against his cousin Jey Uso at SummerSlam 2023. Also, along with his title, Reigns also had his 'Tribal Chief' position on the line. Following a 36-minute bout and Jimmy Uso's betrayal in the closing moments, the 38-year-old megastar retained his supremacy and championship.

However, during the combat, Reigns injured his left arm when Jey Uso attempted a suicide dive, leaving the champion in an awful spot outside the ring.

After the bout, Roman Reigns was scheduled to appear at SummerSlam's press conference. But Ringside News has reported that the Tribal Chief did not show up at the conference as he was pulled away from the event due to the injury he sustained.

On Reigns' behalf, his Special Counsel Paul Heyman came out and answered the media and was legitimately upset by the champion's absence.

Jey Uso warned Roman Reigns ahead of an alleged injury spot at SummerSlam

The two members of the Anoa'i family were on a different level during the Tribal Combat match at the Biggest Party of the Summer.

Jey Uso sought vengeance for Jimmy Uso being sent to hospital a few weeks ago on WWE SmackDown. He left no stone unturned, using kendo sticks, chairs, and tables to his advantage.

However, during the contest, before going through a suicide dive on Roman Reigns, Jey called out to his opponent to watch out before the move. This moment was captured by a fan and shared across the internet.

The injury, however, has reportedly not disrupted any creative plans or television time of Reigns ahead of SmackDown. Only time will tell how the storyline pans out for The Usos after SummerSlam 2023.
