Roman Reigns told fans attending a Saturday WWE event in New Jersey that his time with the company may be nearing an end as he pursues a career outside of wrestling.
While speaking to the crowd, Reigns said, “I’m starting to work into a new phase in my career, and I honestly don’t know if I’ll ever be back here again. But if that’s the case, I just want to say thank you for all these years, all the support, y’all showing up and allowing us to do what we do.”
