Roman Reigns

Roman Reigns will not have to fight leukemia alone.

Reigns will have the support of the wrestling community as he battles leukemia, which has returned after it was in remission since 2008.

The WWE Superstar announced at the start of “RAW” on Monday night that he was relinquishing his title due to the return of his leukemia. He asked for the prayers and support of anyone who would provide it. He received plenty of well wishes and support from his fellow wrestlers.

Take a look at all the tweets sent in support of Reigns:
