Tuhia he haere tonu mo tenei waahanga - I te Oketopa 22, 2018 waahanga o "Raw", i kii a Reigns kua kitea ano ia he mate leukemia i muri i nga tau 11 ka mutu te maimoatanga. I te mutunga, ka whakarerea e ia te Toa o te Ao, ka mutu tana kingitanga mo nga ra 64. I whiwhi tuatahi a Reigns i te urupare rereke i tana urunga ki te papa, engari i manakohia me te manaaki pai me nga waiata o "Mauruuru koe, Roman!" i muri i tana panui mo te leukemia. I hoki mai a Reigns i te Hui-tanguru 25, 2019 i te waahanga o "Raw" ki te panui i tana mate pukupuku kei te murunga, i reira i tino powhirihia ai e ia. I te wāhanga e whai ake nei o "Raw", ka hui anō a Reigns me te Taiapa, e arahi ana ki te tukinga i waenga i a Drew McIntyre, Bobby Lashley me Baron Corbin i Fastlane
, ka wikitoria e Te Taiapa i te tukinga tuatahi a Reigns mai i tana kitenga i te mate pukupuku. I ngā wā e rua, ka whakamanamana a Reigns. I WrestleMania 35, i hinga a Reigns i a Drew McIntyre i tana tukinga takitahi tuatahi mai i te Oketopa 2018. Heoi, ka tutaki ia ki te urupare rerekee a te mano, me te kaituhi "Pro Wrestling Dot Net" a Jason Powell e kii ana ko te tata ki te "70 ōrau o nga kaiwhaiwhai i whiu i a Reigns i te wa e 30 ōrau noa iho i whakanui i a ia i mua i te tukinga". Ka whakaahuatia hoki e ia te tukinga hei "whakamate".
