While the likes of Braun Strowman have posted touching messages on their social media accounts, Natalya, in her recent column for the Calgary Sun, recalled the turbulent emotions the WWE Superstars went through backstage when Reigns announced that he had been living with leukemia for 11 years, and that it was back.

Natalya called Roman WWE's Superman and the locker-room leader, and also said that the WWE officials told the talent not to miss the opening segment of Raw, for it would change the direction of the brand.

"To me, Roman Reigns was WWE's version of Superman and he was our locker room leader on Raw", Natalya wrote. "I thought back to how hard he worked to realize his dream to win the Universal Championship from Brock Lesnar and it made me sad to think everything now needed to be put on hold for him to battle this horrible disease."
