Returning Roman Reigns announces his leukemia is in remission
“The Big Dog is back!”
So said Roman Reigns on Monday Night Raw, four months after the former Universal Champion revealed to the WWE Universe that he would be stepping away from the ring to battle leukemia, a condition that he has lived with for 11 years.
“When I made my announcement, I said I was going to swing for the fences. We did better than that, y’all. We didn’t just swing for the fences, man, we hit a home run,” Reigns said. “I’m in remission, y’all.”
Here’s what some of your favorite Superstars had to say about this amazing news.
About last night...welcome back my brother. It was like you’d never left.
