"The big dog is back" Roman Reigns announces his leukemia is in remission, launches Drew McIntyre on WWE Raw Batista Ric Flair

The WWE announced that Roman Reigns would make a point on the condition of Tuesday's episode. It was an update that will bring a smile to the WWE Universe. Roman announced that he was winning his battle against leukemia and that the disease was already in remission. He then expressed his gratitude to the WWE Universe for his support during his illness. Seth Rollins also joined Roman on the ramp and hugged his former Shield brother.

This was the first time Roman had been back on television since October. The crowds even chanted for a return of WrestleMania for Roman, but "The Big Dog" put ice on the speculation saying that "you can not walk before crawling". However, it was a positive statement from the former Universal World Champion who may soon return to the WWE ring.

"The good news is that I am in remission, it will be fine," said Reigns. "That said, the big dog is back."

WWE superstars were delighted with Roman's return and his announcement that his leukemia was in remission had aroused admiration.

Reigns became the universal champion for the first time after finally defeating Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam. However, a few days later, the October 22 Raw Reigns episode shocked the WWE world when it announced that it had been battling leukemia for eleven years and had recently relapsed. Roman then revealed that he was moving away from the ring while he was leaving the WWE Universal Championship. At first, it was thought that Roman could never return to the ring because of his illness or would take a long time to return. But Reigns being his fighter, he overcame the disease in about 4 months.
