The WWE Draft ended and the Superstars were located on Raw or SmackDown, where even some will have to change brands, as of this Friday that the selections go into effect. Many wondered where it would end Roman reigns, but they didn’t have to wait long as the Tribal Chief he was the first pick of the past draft and will remain at the blue mark for the foreseeable future.
► Roman Reigns is the best representative for FOX and SmackDown
The WWE Universal Champion was recently interviewed by Bleacher Report, and there made things clear about the recent WWE Draft. He said there was no consideration about him going to Raw. In fact, since WWE brought SmackDown to the FOX network, Reigns has been one of the cornerstones of the blue brand program and in this way manages to correspond to the investment that the renowned television network has made.
“I don’t think it was a hope; it was more of a demand. What we’re doing and the character fits very closely with real life with us and what we do, and I don’t think FOX would have done it any other way. They have invested a lot of money and want the best to represent their network, and who better than me to do it for WWE? Because I’m at the heart of the matter, because I’ve put all this work on the blue side for SmackDown, it would have felt really weird to just be uprooted and try to transition to Raw. And this comes from a guy from Raw.
Although the future of Roman Reigns will be linked to the SmackDown brand, it is planned that he will make an appearance on WWE Raw, especially if he leaves Crown Jewel as champion, since that would imply that he will face the WWE Champion in the previous weeks to Survivor Series and will want to prove that he is the best monarch in all of WWE.
