Roman Reigns is expected to have a much heavier WWE schedule in the coming weeks as the company builds toward SummerSlam, which will take place on August 1 and 2 at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.

The reigning World Heavyweight Champion is advertised for this Monday’s episode of Monday Night RAW on June 15 from CFG Bank Arena in Baltimore. The show will also feature semifinal matches in the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments.

WWE also lists Reigns for the June 29 episode of RAW in Atlantic City at Jim Whelan Boardwalk Hall. The OTC is among the top names advertised for the event, alongside Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, Liv Morgan, Oba Femi, and Rhea Ripley.

That stretch will continue in July. Reigns is also advertised for the July 13 episode of RAW in Dallas at American Airlines Center and the July 27 episode of RAW in Los Angeles at Intuit Dome.

Notably, Reigns is not currently advertised for Night of Champions, which will take place on June 27 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. That has led to speculation, as the event has traditionally featured a strong presence from world champions.

With that, Reigns’ steady presence on RAW should serve as direct preparation for SummerSlam, where he could have one of the biggest matches of his current title reign.

So far, WWE has not officially announced Reigns’ opponent for the biggest event of the North American summer. However, names such as Jacob Fatu, CM Punk, and Oba Femi remain around the World Heavyweight Championship picture.

The question now is whether this new run of appearances is simply a more active stretch before SummerSlam, or whether WWE plans to keep Roman Reigns more present on weekly programming going forward.
