Roman Reigns Withdraws From 2024 WWE Draft, Not Returning To WWE TV In The Immediate Future

Roman Reigns will not be drafted to any particular brand in 2024.

Despite being included as part of the 2024 WWE Draft alongside other members of The Bloodline, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Paul Heyman, it was later announced that Reigns would not be eligible for the draft.

Paul Heyman announced on the April 26 episode of WWE Friday Night SmackDown that Roman Reigns was withdrawn from draft eligibility. Heyman would say that this is a good thing because with Reigns not returning to WWE television in the immediate future, there would be no need to waste the obvious first-round draft pick.

Roman Reigns has been off of TV since being defeated by Cody Rhodes for the WWE championship at WWE WrestleMania XL. In the time since his absence, Solo Sikoa has been reshaping The Bloodline alongside Tama Tonga.
