Roman Reigns is scheduled to return to WWE Raw for the brand’s final show before the 2026 Money in the Bank Premium Live Event, according to a preview published by ProWrestling.net’s Jason Powell. The appearance sets the stage for Reigns’ upcoming World Heavyweight Championship defense against LA Knight, which headlines Money in the Bank on Saturday, October 10, 2026.
While discussing the title match as a guest on Busted Open, John Cena addressed the possibility of Knight dethroning Reigns at the event. According to Fightful and Wrestling Headlines, Cena suggested that WWE could still change its plans for the outcome at the last minute, reflecting the kind of unpredictability that has surrounded major title matches involving Reigns in the past.
The Reigns-Knight match is being positioned as one of the marquee bouts on the Money in the Bank card, with Reigns defending the World Heavyweight Championship against Knight’s challenge. No further details on the stipulation or build for the bout beyond the title defense were included in the available reports.
With Reigns’ return to Raw confirmed for the show immediately preceding Money in the Bank, his final television appearance before the event is expected to factor into the storyline heading into the title match. WWE has not publicly indicated any change to the advertised plans for the October 10 match as of the reports cited above.
