The Wrestling Observer has noted that Roman Reigns was left out of WWE's latest Make-A-Wish video.

Several clips of stars meeting young children and granting wishes were shown on WWE TV recently, but Reigns oddly wasn't in any of them. The strange thing here is that Roman has become the face of WWE's relationship with the Make-A-Wish Foundation over the past few years.

John Cena, who has granted the most wishes in company history, was previously the poster boy for WWE's charity work. Reigns started to replace Cena when JC began focusing more on his Hollywood career than pro wrestling.

Now, as Dave Meltzer noticed, Roman has been bumped out into the cold during his sabbatical from the company.

Reigns was set to face Goldberg for the Universal Title at WrestleMania 36 before the ongoing global health crisis changed everything. Instead of continuing to wrestle, Roman decided to protect himself and his family by staying at home during the outbreak.

It's unclear exactly why WWE decided to remove any clips of Reigns from the Make-A-Wish videos, but the Observer did previously report that announcers are under strict instructions not to mention him on TV right now.
