WWE star Roman Reigns shuts down 6th kid rumors during hiatus
The post WWE star Roman Reigns shuts down 6th kid rumors during hiatus appeared first on ClutchPoints. Before making his epic return during Monday Night RAW on July 14, 2025, there were reports that WWE's Roman Reigns had his sixth kid while on hiatus. However, the 'Only Tribal Chief' has debunked those rumors. He took to TikTok to address the rumors. The caption of his post read, 'Five and done,' indicating he will not have another kid anytime soon. He also wrote, 'Addressing the rumors…' over the video. 'I'm done,' Reigns said. 'They [said] I was trying to catch up to Jacob [Fatu] or something? Five and done. I've done my job. I procreated. No more.' Reigns then fired back at those who called his hiatus a 'vacation.' He reassured them that he was still working when he wasn't seen in WWE. 'It wasn't a vacation! It was school 'til June, and then we started tutoring. Don't feel bad for me. Don't ever feel bad for me,' he responded. So, it does not appear those rumors are true. Reigns appears to be back in WWE for the long haul after his three-month hiatus. Expect to see a lot more of him leading into SummerSlam. How many kids does WWE Superstar Roman Reigns have? Reigns has five kids with his wife, Galina Becker. Their first daughter was born in December 2007. They then had two sets of twin boys in 2016 and 2020. His WWE career started in 2010 when he signed with their developmental brand, Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW). Reigns previously aspired to be an NFL player, going undrafted in the 2007 NFL Draft. After brief stints with the Minnesota Vikings and Jacksonville Jaguars, Reigns played a season in the Canadian Football League (CFL). He debuted in WWE in 2012 as part of the Shield with Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose. They remained together until Rollins turned on his stablemates in 2014. Once he became a singles star, WWE never looked back with Reigns as their top star. They pushed him when the audience rejected him. After his return in 2020 after taking a hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Reigns reinvented his character. He debuted the 'Tribal Chief' persona that he still uses today. During his 'Tribal Chief' run, he had a 1,316-day reign as Universal Champion. Along the way, he won the WWE Championship, unifying the titles. He eventually lost them to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40.

WWE Raw Highlights: Former world champion returns to save Jey Uso and CM Punk, as Paul Heyman gasps in horror
Comebacks in the WWE, and that too the ones especially timed well, are the bread and butter of the company, and it is safe to say that the writers of the show have definitely hit it out of the park this time. After being away from competing for several months after his loss to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40, Roman Reigns returned on yesterday's Raw episode to extract some long-due revenge. After a gruesome qualifying match for a spot at Summerslam, CM Punk emerged victorious, but following their classic pack mentality, Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed started laying the beatdown on him. Jey Uso came out to save Punk but got caught in the crossfire. Just before Reed could deliver the finishing blow, a familiar but long-lost sound played on the speakers as the crowd erupted hearing Reigns entrance music. The 'OTC' walked out determined, and before any of the culprits standing in the ring could understand what was going on, he had rushed his way in and attacked both Breakker and Reed. After laying both the men out, Reigns helped his cousin Jey to his feet as he locked eyes with Punk. The two men were seeing each other for the first time since Heyman betrayed them both during their match at WrestleMania 41.

Reigns will now be playing the role of 'face' (good guy) after continuing his 'heel' persona for the entirety of his previous championship run. Punk will now be facing Gunther at Summerslam for the heavyweight championship. Gunther retained his title at Saturday Night's Main Event after he defeated Goldberg. Saturday Night's Main Event After setting up his feud with Randy Orton in the previous weeks, Drew McIntyre fell short during the actual match. Distracted by artist Jelly Roll at the ringside, Drew fell prey to the Viper and failed to secure a win. Seth Rollins went head-to-head with LA Knight, and the two delivered an impressive match, with Rollins taking the win. It was even more impressive as the two men fought through injuries, with Knight still battling a midsection bruise and Rollins sustaining an ankle injury during the fight itself. Solo Sikoa defended his US title for the first time against the returning Jimmy Uso, who was outnumbered due to the interference of Sikoa's own group, the MFT. Goldberg finally closed the curtains on his wrestling career as he failed to prevail over Gunther. The WWE legend gave an emotional speech at the end of the match and thanked all the fans who have supported him over the years and how their love facilitated his return to the company. Evolution 2025 The all-female premium event took everyone by surprise and delivered an exquisite show with past female legends joining the current talent. Becky Lynch, Lyra Valkyria and Bailey went toe to toe, as the three women laid it all on the line for the Intercontinental Championship. After an enthralling match, Lynch managed to retain her title. Rodriguez and Perez emerged victorious in the multiple tag-team match, and Tiffany Stratton managed to beat the legendary female wrestler Trish Stratus. Naomi managed to lay Jade Cargill to rest, even though the stipulation of the match seemed linear at times. She would later return during the bout between Iyo Sky and Rhea Ripley and cashed in her MITB briefcase to secure the championship. The returning Nikki Bella made for a good show and positive reactions from the crowd, but ultimately the battle royal was won by Vacquer. This was only the second time Evolution took place, with the first one being held back in 2018. The show didn't have the same kind of backing it did 7 years ago, but it still managed to draw the audience in.

Brock Lesnar looks bigger than ever with new hair amid WWE hiatus
The post Brock Lesnar looks bigger than ever with new hair amid WWE hiatus appeared first on ClutchPoints. Once again, a new photo of WWE Superstar Brock Lesnar has surfaced with his long hair amid his hiatus from the company. Advertisement A recent photo has surfaced online of Lesnar at a gym. He looks bigger than ever, as Lesnar is wearing a tight-fitting shirt in the picture. The most noticeable change to his look is his hair. Lesnar has recently been seen with longer hair than he ever donned in WWE or UFC. It goes past his shoulders, and he looks like a Viking. Since making his return to WWE in 2021, Lesnar has been sporting a different look. He returned with a ponytail, and he would dress in jeans and cowboy hats for promos. Will Brock Lesnar ever return to WWE from hiatus? It is unknown if Lesnar will ever return to WWE. He is currently on an indefinite hiatus. And while no one has completely ruled out a return, there has been no concrete evidence suggesting he will. Advertisement His hiatus is due to the WWE star being linked to the Vince McMahon-Janel Grant lawsuit. WWE immediately removed him from their creative plans, and he has not been seen since August 2023. Lesnar's last match was against Cody Rhodes at the 2023 SummerSlam PLE. He lost in what was the rubber match of their feud. Most expected him to come back in time for the Road to WrestleMania 40. However, that did not happen. He is usually a part of the Royal Rumble PLE, but he did not come back there. He also missed out on WrestleMania 40 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Throughout his career, Lesnar is a 10-time world champion. He won the WWE Championship seven times, and he is also a three-time Universal Champion. He has also won two Royal Rumbles, a Money in the Bank ladder match, and the King of the Ring tournament in 2002. Advertisement After his return in 2021, Lesnar reignited his longstanding feud with Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship. During their feud, Lesnar won the WWE Championship, losing it to Reigns at WrestleMania 38. This created the Undisputed WWE Championship that John Cena currently holds. His last feuds were against Bobby Lashley and Rhodes. The former never got a decisive end, and he lost his feud against Rhodes in 2023.

Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes to star in upcoming Street Fighter film
WWE superstars Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes are set to appear in the upcoming video game adaptation of Street Fighter. The two wrestlers have a history, having competed for the WWE Undisputed titles at WrestleMania 39 and WrestleMania 40. Rhodes won the 2023 Royal Rumble but faced and lost to Reigns at Mania 39. A year later, 'The American Nightmare' made history by pinning 'The Tribal Chief,' ending Reigns' four-year championship reign. Both Reigns and Rhodes have expressed interest in transitioning from WWE to Hollywood, with each already appearing in films. Reigns made his film debut alongside his cousin, The Rock, in Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw, while Rhodes is set to star in the upcoming Naked Gun film later this year. According to Deadline , both wrestlers will lend their voices to characters in the highly anticipated video game adaptation of Street Fighter, which is scheduled for release in 2026, reported. Roman Reigns will voice Akuma, while Cody Rhodes will portray Guile in this remake of the 1994 classic. The 1994 film featured Jean-Claude Van Damme, Kylie Minogue, Byron Mann and the late Raúl Juliá. Although Street Fighter (1994) was a commercial success, it was heavily criticised by critics and fans for its campy tone and unfaithfulness to the original storyline.
