Roman Reigns is seemingly ready to defend his Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at any time and place against anybody but he will admittedly block his dates for the summer of 2024 since the biggest sporting league is returning during that timespan.

NBC Sports dropped a Save the Date campaign targeting the 2024 Summer Olympics with the concept being that some of the famous faces will scrap their plans in order to watch the contests uninterrupted. Along with the likes of Dolly Parton and one of the Minions, Roman Reigns and his Special Counsel Paul Heyman fell in the same line.

“Roman Reigns will defend his title against anyone, anytime,” Heyman declared in the promo before the champion mentioned, “except next July.”

Roman Reigns expected to be champion till Olympics 2024

Unfortunately, Roman Reigns can’t participate in the Olympics since scripted pro wrestling isn’t obviously allowed to be a genre. However, by the time the Summer Olympics rolls over, it’s possible that he will still be the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion by then. For now, his title reign has lasted over 1,000 days. The last time he went through a title defense was at WrestleMania 39 where he faced and overcame the challenge of Cody Rhodes.

Since his return to the WWE in 2020 summer, Roman Reigns has established himself as one of the greatest pro wrestlers of all time and perhaps the greatest of all time, according to many fans and critics, thanks to his incredible character work and The Bloodline storyline. This makes global and mainstream attention and it comes as no surprise that The Tribal Chief has been featured in a commercial for the 2024 Paris Olympics.
