The story of Roman Reigns being pulled from all four June WWE Raw dates has a much simpler explanation than previously reported. According to PWInsider, Reigns originally being promoted for those episodes was nothing more than a clerical error on the TKO and WWE side — meaning his removal from the advertising was a correction rather than a deliberate scheduling decision.
The June dates in question are the June 1 Raw in Turin, June 8 in Paris, June 15 in Baltimore, and June 22 in London. Reigns remains advertised for all May episodes of WWE Raw and is scheduled to defend the World Heavyweight Championship against Jacob Fatu at Backlash on Saturday, May 9 at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida.

Reigns and Fatu are scheduled to sign the contract for their Backlash World Heavyweight Championship match on the May 4 episode of WWE Raw. The clarification from PWInsider removes the speculation that had built around Reigns’ June absence being tied to creative or scheduling decisions, though his status for the Night of Champions premium live event in Saudi Arabia on June 27 remains unconfirmed.
