Roman Reigns Relinquishes The Universal Title Because He Has Leukemia.

I have a sad and unfortunate news to break. Two hours ago on RAW, Roman cut a great promo pretty much stating that he's been living with leukemia for over 11 years and the disease's return forced him to give up the universal championship. The segment ended with both shield members Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins gave a group hug to Roman and did the triple shield fist pump. Ever since that, fellow WWE superstars reacted to the news on Twitter and here are the tweets so far.

An amazing human being, an incredible performer & a man I’m proud to be friends with. My thoughts & prayers are with you & your family. Get well soon, champ! #ThankYouRoman https://t.co/jL1Q5dVvzs

He’s our locker room leader.

He IS the business.

He’ll be back.

You got this, champ. #ThankYouRoman

I'm overseas and I just heard the terrible news about @WWERomanReigns and his battle with Leukemia. Totally shocked. Uce, you are a tough bastard and a true fighter, and you will beat this.
Lots of love.

Just saw the @WWERomanReigns news. Absolutely heartbreaking. Roman is one of nicest guys I have ever met in this business and was a pleasure every time I had the pleasure to work with him. My best wishes to him!

Our job gives us the ability to portray larger than life characters who possess super human qualities and characteristics.

After hearing his story it's very apparent that Joe Anoa'i is just as much of a superhero as "Roman Reigns" is.#ThankYouRoman

Sending my thoughts and prayers your way @WWERomanReigns ... Thank you and stay strong! 🙏🏻🙌🏼

WWE then issued a statement on this and here's what they have to say.

“Tonight on Monday Night Raw, Roman Reigns (aka Joe Anoa’i) announced that he is relinquishing the WWE Universal Championship and taking a leave of absence from WWE as he once again fights leukemia, which had been in remission since late 2008. Reigns is taking his battle with leukemia public in an effort to raise awareness and funds for research in order to advance cures for the disease.”

What do I think of this? I hope and pray that Roman Reigns will recover from this and come back stronger than ever before. #ThankyouRoman

WWE Smackdown 25/10/19 | My Coherent Review.

Another disappointing episode of Friday night Smackdown but it was a bit better this week. Still, a meh episode. Miz TV. Special Guest, Team Hulk Hogan And Team Ric Flair. Both team Hulk Hogan and team Flair were guests on the latest edition of Miz TV or at least most of it due to a brand split. Hulk Hogan mentioned in his promo that he's put out the greatest team Hulkamania of all time (are the mega powers and Brutus Beefcake a joke to you brother?) Ric Flair replied by basically saying that his team will beat Hogan's team at Crown Jewel. Sami Zayn made a short joke and Gable tells Zayn that he embraces who he is. Roman Reigns called King Corbin stupid to which Hogan proposed a match in the main event of this episode between most of team Hogan vs most of team Flair in a 6 man tag team match. Sami on behalf of the team, refused to accept that but after Hogan said something to Nakamura in Japanese, Sami told Hogan that the 6 man tag ma...

The 5 News Week: Nor Diana's Story As A Muslim Female Pro Wrestler, Paul Heyman Rumoured To Be Behind Sasha Banks' Heel Turn?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week. Paul Heyman Rumoured To Be Behind Sasha Banks' Heel Turn? Paul Heyman has made some plot decisions in the creative team for the red brand since his role executive director has to quote the rapper Rick Ross, "initiated". One of those creative choices he has assembled was Sasha Banks' recent heel turn and the promo she cut on this past week's episode of RAW according to Wade Keller of PWtorch via his hotline show. That promo she cut was executed decently yet it was written pretty indistinctly in terms of emotional impact in the story Banks' part of with Becky Lynch. Hopefully, she actually works with better-written material because that was not Paul Heyman's best work behind the scenes. Nor Diana's Story As A Muslim Female Pr...

An Update On My Podcast.

I was supposed to start recording my first ever podcast yesterday. Exciting, right? Unfortunately, my anxiety got the best of me and I feel really sh*tty about it. As of yesterday, my panic attack was so bad that I built up a stomach ache that led to some vomiting. I've never felt this emotionally wrecked in weeks. Why am I writing about this? Well, it's time for me to open up on what's going with me personally and it's way for me to connect with you guys on that level. For now, I'm sticking to the written word and the podcast will be delayed indefinitely until I get the confidence enough to speak. So, see you guys maybe on The 5 News Week? Take care of yourselves, people because to quote Spiderman in Avengers: Infinity War, "I don't feel so good".
