Roman Reigns Explains How ESPN Partnership Will Change WWE

Roman Reigns is one of the top names on the WWE roster and has played a key role in pushing the product for the past few years.

OTC1 recently secured a victory at SummerSlam 2025 against Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed in a tag team match. His partner was his former faction member and cousin, Jey Uso.

Currently, Reigns has taken another time off from WWE TV, but in the meantime, the global juggernaut made a business move that will definitely draw in more eyes.

Roman Reigns explains how ESPN and WWE’s partnership helps the product

Recently, the former Undisputed WWE Champion appeared on ESPN’s First Take. He was asked if anything new could be expected from the recent partnership between ESPN and the global juggernaut.

Roman Reigns revealed that WWE continues to evolve and become better. The partnership will only push the company to do more since it is going to be reaching out to a bigger audience.

100%. Like we said, we’re just continually trying to get better. We don’t think we’re in our final form at all, and it’s entertainment, so it’s just always evolving. It’s ever-changing. Um, but that’s the type of pressure we like to put on ourselves to be able to team up with an ESPN. We know we have to get better. We know we have to get bigger. We know we’re going to be reaching a bigger audience. So, I think that’s just without being said, we’re going to make it bigger.

The five big PLEs, SummerSlam, WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, Survivor Series, and Money in the Bank, will be shown on ESPN for the domestic audience in the U.S.
