WWE Raw: Roman Reigns suspended by Vince McMahon
Tuesday 13 March 2018 08:49, UK
Roman Reigns was suspended by WWE chairman Vince McMahon on Monday night's episode of Raw, live on Sky Sports.
Reigns publicly criticised McMahon on the show after Brock Lesnar's failure to appear once again to address the fans ahead of the Universal title match between the two at WrestleMania.
As a result, Reigns - who won the Elimination Chamber to earn the title shot - has been suspended by the company "until further notice".

"I reminded Roman of an expression his cousin The Rock used to say, which is 'know your role and shut your mouth'," McMahon said.
The chairman went on to confirm that the pair will still have their WrestleMania match and that Lesnar will appear on next week's episode of Raw.
Cena reiterates Undertaker demands
John Cena took a step further away from WrestleMania when he was part of the six-pack challenge on the SmackDown pay-per-view Fastlane which ended in a win for WWE champion AJ Styles.
As a result, Styles' match against Shinsuke Nakamura in New Orleans will go ahead as planned but Cena is without a date for the big one.
Cena spoke about how he would be in the crowd at this year's WrestleMania - and even went into the Raw crowd to underline his point.
With time - and opponents - running out, he once again challenged The Undertaker to a match, in what would be his first outing since last year's event.
Strowman wins tag team title shot
A five-team battle royal to establish who will face The Bar for the Raw titles at WrestleMania had an unwelcome intruder in the form of Braun Strowman.
The Miztourage, The Revival, Titus Worldwide, Karl Anderson & Luke Gallows and Rhyno & Heath Slater were ready to square off but the Monster Among Men intervened - and picked up the victory.
Anderson was his final elimination, which now poses the question: Will Strowman be allowed to face Sheamus and Cesaro for the straps in New Orleans?
