I'm not a wrestlying fan but this is The Rock's cousin that we're talking about and I'm a huge fan of Dwayne. It sucks to hear about these types of health issues but good to know that Roman is on top of it and will fight that first before returning to the ring to fight another day. Living with something like leukemia for 11 years and still getting into the ring despite it being staged or not, still isn't an easy thing to do. Kudos to him and hope that he has a speedy recovery.
"My real name is Joe, and I've been living with leukemia for 11 years," Reigns said at the start of his promo.
"You know the deal, you know how life is," Reigns said. "Life is not fair, it's not all peaches and cream. Sometimes life throws you a curve ball. And right now the best thing for me to do is to go home, to focus on my family and my health.
"But I want to make one thing clear, by no means is this a retirement speech," he continued. "Because after I'm done whooping leukemia's ass once again I'm coming back home. And when I do, it's not just going to be about titles and being on top, no it's about a purpose. I am coming back because I want to show all of you, the whole world, I want to show my family, my friends, my children and my wife, that when life throws a curve ball at me, I am the type of man that will stand in that batter's box, I will crowd the plate, I will choke up and I will swing for the fences every single time. Because I will beat this and I will be back and you will see me very, very soon."https://comicbook.com/wwe/2018/10/23/roman-reigns-reveals-leukemia-diagnosis-forfeits-universal-championship-wwe-raw/
