After working three back-to-back WWE premium live events, Roman Reigns is away from television in the last portion of 2025. This would reportedly be a limited hiatus for the marquee superstar from WWE programming as he’s set to resurface sooner than one could expect in light of WWE Raw’s move to Netflix. As such, he’s also expected to compete in a match on the debut episode of WWE’s red brand on the global OTT giant.
If reports are to be believed then Roman Reigns is set to return to TV action which will be something rare for his WWE prospect. His matches are typically reserved for WWE Premium Live Events and that too in some specific ones. His last TV match took place on December 30, 2022, when he and Sami Zayn lost to John Cena and Kevin Owens on SmackDown.

Joey Votes of the source further reported that Netflix is aware of the value that the former champion brings to the WWE products and he’s specifically needed on Monday nights in 2025. Hence, his move from SmackDown to the red brand could be evident via this ongoing transfer window.
