Roman Reigns announced that the WWE Universe will be seeing him all summer after his triumphant World Heavyweight Championship win over CM Punk in the main event of WrestleMania 42 Night Two.

The Head of the Table has since lived up to his word, making regular appearances on the flagship show to build the hype for his first title defense against Jacob Fatu at Backlash in Tampa on May 9.

WWE had previously advertised the OTC for all RAW episodes up until June. Unfortunately, that is no longer the case.

Earlier today, WWE dropped the promotional graphic for RAW in June, and it didn’t feature the Bloodline member.

In an update, Roman Reigns is no longer advertised for any episode of RAW in the lead-up to Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia on June 27, 2026.

The OTC is still scheduled to appear on the remaining episodes of Monday Night RAW in May.

As of this writing, he is still locked in for Night of Champions, though that could change if Jacob Fatu dethrones him for the World Heavyweight Championship next weekend.

A Blockbuster WWE World Heavyweight Title match is in the works

According to Ibou of Self Made Sessions, Bronson Reed is expected to be one of Roman Reigns’ challengers during his World Heavyweight Championship reign.

“All I do know is that Bronson Reed is going to be one of Roman Reigns’ expected opponents during this title reign.”

The Australian star is currently on the sidelines with a distal biceps tear, which required surgery. He has since been rehabbing hard to get back in the ring.

Bronson Reed and Roman Reigns are no strangers to each other, as the two men wrestled twice last year. The feud is currently tied at 1-1, with a rubber match yet to happen.

It will be interesting to see when the creative will revisit this feud in 2026.
