10 Times Kayfabe Was Broken In WWE

#3 Roman Reigns' leukemia revelation

Roman Reigns addresses the WWE Universe about his leukemia revelation

Having finally won the WWE Universal Championship at SummerSlam by defeating 'The Beast' Brock Lesnar, Roman Reigns was finally on top of the food chain on Monday Night Raw and was finally a World Champion after all these years.

However, on 22nd October, 2018, Reigns kicked-started the episode of Monday Night Raw but something seemed very unusual, given the fact that Reigns came out wearing casual clothes and addressed the WWE Universe about his leukemia being back after 11 years.

Reigns started off his promo by stating that his real name is Joe and eventually went on to relinquish the Universal Title on a very emotional episode of Monday Night Raw. Shortly within a few moments, Reigns' Shield brethren Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose, who by this point were already shedding tears on screen, walked out to the ramp and hugged it out one final time before Reigns would begin his on-going battle with leukemia.

This sure was the most recent example of WWE breaking kayfabe on screen and was surely a very emotional moment as well.
