Former Undisputed Champion Roman Reigns has been removed from the upcoming WWE event in Seattle, Washington.
The star was initially advertised and scheduled to appear at the Smackdown on September 13, but his name is now absent from the official WWE Events page.
The development comes two weeks after Reigns made his return at SummerSlam on August 4 following a four-month absence.
Prior to that, he had not made a public appearance since losing his World Championship title to Cody Rhodes.
However, WWE fans will have to wait longer for his next return, as it was revealed that he is currently missing from the official website and the ‘Featured Superstars’ section.

WWE have not released any confirmation or statement about why the Original Tribal Chief was removed.
Previously, the former WWE Undisputed Champion made his return with a Superman Punch and Spear on Solo Sikoa, threatening to start a Bloodline civil war.
The news emerged after it was confirmed last month that Reign’s father, Sika Anoa’i, passed away at the age of 79.
His nephew Jahrus Anoa’i broke the news in a statement: ‘He passed away peacefully on June 25. Sika was a celebrated figure whose contributions and legacy have left an indelible mark.
