WATCH: Roman Reigns Organises a Heartwarming Reunion With Children in Fight Against Cancer
Roman Reigns may be the most dominant and untouchable Superstar in WWE today, but every man on top of the mountain had the hardest time climbing it. In Roman’s case, that road was hard and rocky, but he had to weather the hardest storms to get to where he is today.
Back when he was pushed to the stratosphere and beyond by WWE, Reigns was stopped by a major setback when he announced that he was diagnosed with Leukemia for the second time in his life.
He had to take a long break to recover from what seemed like a career derailment.

Thankfully, ‘The Big Dog’ returned and announced his recovery, much to the joy of fans. Since then, he has been an active advocate for the LLS (Leukemia and Lymphoma Society) and its effort to fight blood cancer.
In 2018, he met with a group of children who were fighting the disease as part of an LLS Children’s initiative collaboration with WWE. The children came to the WWE ring and interacted with Roman Reigns after which he left them with motivational messages.
In a recent post on Twitter, ‘The Tribal Chief’ revealed that he reconnected with that group to catch up with them as a mini-reunion. Reigns talked with them and asked them what they were up to today as you can see below.
In honor of #NationalCancerSurvivorsDay, I caught up with my friends Gio, Savanna, Hunter, Connor and King for a virtual reunion. We met in 2019 to support the LLS children initiatives to help find better treatments and provide support to patients and their families. #NCSD2021 pic.twitter.com/H8uk5eSAhJ
