Shocking and heartbreaking news arrived on Monday's episode of "WWE Raw." Roman Reigns (Joe Anoa'i) announced that leukemia he'd previously beat into remission, years ago, has returned. With that, he also informed everyone he'd be stepping away from the ring to be with his family as he fights this battle. He also surrendered the WWE Universal Championship. Here are some of the supportive reactions from Reigns' WWE superstar colleagues.
Matt Hardy (N/A)
Hardy has been a part of the business for quite some time, and knows how much it takes. He recently had to retire due to his own injury, so based on his message, he knows a lot about the difficulty in stepping away.
An amazing human being, an incredible performer & a man I’m proud to be friends with. My thoughts & prayers are with you & your family. Get well soon, champ! #ThankYouRoman https://t.co/jL1Q5dVvzs

Mike Kanellis (205 Live)
Kanellis recently made his debut on 205 Live with Maria Kanellis. He summed up a lot of people's thoughts. He describes Roman's overall attitude, and how his peers view him in the locker room.
Roman is one of the nicest people I’ve ever had the privilege to share a locker room with. We all knew he was the locker room leader and we all aspired to be like him. Come back stronger than ever my friend #ThankYouRoman @WWERomanReigns
