Roman Reigns at a WWE Live Event: It doesn’t happen every day!

The show in the Arena Ciudad de México in Mexico City offered a main event with Roman Reigns.

The Undisputed WWE Champion has been appearing at hand-picked non-television events for some time now.

In the final match of the event on Saturday, the “Tribal Chief” defeated Lucha Libre legend Rey Mysterio.

It was only the eighth match of the year for Reigns – five of which were at premium live events and the other three at the classic house shows.

In fact, Reigns had already recorded a win over Rey Mysterio on June 17 at a non-broadcast event in Cincinnati, Ohio. On March 4, he defeated Sami Zayn (a rematch to the previous PLE match at Elimination Chamber in February) at a house show in Toronto, Canada.

With a new contract, Reigns has significantly reduced his wrestling stint since the summer of 2022 – at the current rate, the final bill for 2023 should probably not be much more than 15 matches.

Roman’s next match is the “Tribal Combat” once morest his cousin Jey Uso at „SummerSlam“ on August 5 in Detroit, Michigan. Before that, the 38-year-old will also appear on Friday’s SmackDown in New Orleans, Louisiana.
