Roman Reigns has been out of the WWE scene for about four months although there are signs that he is making progress and possibly return to the ring soon. That critical update could happen on the Feb. 25 issue of RAW.
Reigns was forced to vacate the WWE Universal title after revealing that he had another real-life battle with Leukemia. Little has been heard of the Big Dog although a previous update by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson hinted that his cousin is up and well. Putting the pieces together, that could pave the way for some good news this coming Monday, CBS Sports reported.
WWE fans are expected to give the man also known as Leati Joseph "Joe" Anoaʻi a warm ovation once he appears in the ring for the first time since Oct. 23 of last year. Most will be eager to note how well he is doing and hopefully find out when he can return to active duty.

While he seemed well and good in that Instagram post shared by Johnson, it wouldn't come as a surprise if the former WWE champion could be wrestling soon. Reigns is set to make his Hollywood debut on the "Fast and Furious" spinoff movie, but WWE fans will be more interested to find out when they can see the former champion back in action.
As far as Wrestlemania 35 is concerned, he is expected to be present when the WWE spectacle takes place at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. But the question right now is whether he would be taking on an active role and get physical or simply be in attendance in a non-wrestling role. For now, it seems the latter is a safer call.
And with little updates on Reigns' condition, one possibility is seeing him getting involved in a post-match or merely causing a distraction. Should that happen, it seems likely that the 33-year-old actor/ wrestler could hint at the real score of his condition and when he could be back in harness. Looking at the WWE calendar last year, Reigns could mark his return at WWE Backlash or WWE Money in the Bank.
As most can see, that announcement set for this Monday's edition of WWE Raw has a lot of implications. Reigns is likely to reveal something important and it pertains to his future in the ring. This alone gives WWE fans more than enough reason to see what the Big Dog will have to say.
