Leati Joseph Anoa'i, known to WWE fans as Roman Reigns, opened up the broadcast of "Monday Night Raw" by announcing he has leukemia.
"My real name is Joe, and I've been living with leukemia for 11 years," Anoa'i said, in front of the crowd at Dunkin' Donuts Center in Providence, Rhode Island. "And, unfortunately, it's back. And because the leukemia is back, I cannot fulfill my role -- I can't be that fighting champion -- and I'm going to have to relinquish the Universal championship. ... I want to make one thing clear: By no means is this a retirement speech. Because after I'm done whipping leukemia's ass once again, I'm coming back home."
