WWE has locked in their franchise player of the company to carry the brand for some more years. If the latest reports are to go by then Roman Reigns is the concerned person who will stay with the WWE for multiple years to follow and thereby be the face of the company. He is the prime babyface of the roster for the past several years who must be keeping his slot.

It’s a fact that that WWE has been re-signing talents to four or five-year contracts as of late. Ever since All Elite Wrestling has launched their weekly television show on TNT from this October onwards, we expected a TV rating war to begin. So WWE tried to retain their superstars offering new contracts and thereby marking them safe from the rival brand.
Roman Reigns must have been in the front of that list for the officials. As per the source, he has inked the new contract in July. Other stars who have recently signed new deals have reportedly got double money from the WWE. Names like Braun Strowman, Kevin Owens, Mike, and Maria Kanellis are on the same list who decided to stay with the brand in years to follow.
As of now, Roman Reigns continues to be a top star for the company on the SmackDown brand. He returned to action back in February from his second battle with leukemia back in February. WWE has recently put him in a storyline where a mystery person attacked him that could have been life-threatening. This led to a program among Reigns, Rowan, Daniel Bryan and Buddy Murphy in recent weeks.
