5 reasons why Roman Reigns plans to transition out of WWE in 2 years

#4. His health

Roman Reigns has fought through hell and back

Roman Reigns announced in late October last year that he was battling leukemia. It came as a shock to everybody and as mentioned earlier, the general consensus was that Reigns would mostly return to the ring around January 2020.

WWE perhaps assumed the same and came up with a plan to keep going without him despite Reigns being a very integral figure to WWE programming. Unfortunately, due to the nature of leukemia, Reigns knows that there's a very high chance of a relapse and his health going down the drain.

Out of pure respect for his physical well-being, he likely knows that it's going to be difficult to push past two years on the road and in the ring. That's why he most likely feels that for his health, a two-year period in WWE to do all he can would be good.
