Roman Reigns returns from suspension at untelevised event
Roman Reigns was hit with a 30-day suspension for violating the WWE's Wellness Policy on June 21st, just two days after he dropped the WWE Championship at Money In The Bank.
Just prior to his suspension, Reigns was confirmed to be in a triple-threat title match at Battleground with the two other former members of the Shield, and though Seth Rollins frequently brought up Reigns' punishment on weekly episodes of Raw, the violation did not cost Reigns a title shot.
Reigns' suspension wasn't over in time for the WWE Draft - where he was selected to Raw - but he made a surprise return Saturday night at a WWE Live event in Wildwood, New Jersey.
Reigns interrupted a Seth Rollins promo, then hit Rollins with a superman punch and a spear.
