Below are a couple of top WWE news stories of the day, featuring CM Punk, Roman Reigns, and Aleister Black.
• On SmackDown in Barcelona, Paul Heyman declared that day as “Roman Reigns Day” because of the release of WWE 2K25, and The Tribal Chief is the cover star for this year’s game.
Heyman announced that Roman will be on next week’s SmackDown in Bologna, Italy and if anyone has a problem with Roman, they can show up and say it to his face.
The fans in Spain booed the fact that Roman will appear in Italy. This led to Heyman saying:
“Hey, don’t boo, all you have to do is buy a plane ticket on cheapo airlines and fly over to Bologna, it’s not like Mussolini is at the border stopping you from getting in.”
CM Punk said on his Instagram story that he’s going to show up next Friday in Italy to confront The OTC.
