CLEVELAND -- WWE is coming back to Cleveland.

And for the first time in nearly a year, so is Roman Reigns.

Earlier this week, the former WWE Universal champion returned to Monday Night Raw after announcing in October that he was battling leukemia. In the show's opening segment, Reigns -- real name: Joe Anoa'i -- revealed that he is now in remission and it appears an in-ring return could be coming sooner rather than later.

On Thursday, Quicken Loans Arena updated its advertised card for the Fastlane pay-per-view, which will take place at the building on March 10. According to the site, Reigns will teammate with his former Shield stablemate, Seth Rollins, to face Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley in a 2-on-3 handicap match.

Barring an in-ring return this coming Monday, the match would mark Reigns' first in more than four months.

"[Raw] was one of those things I thought about over and over," Reigns told Robin Roberts on Good Morning America on Tuesday. "This journey not going to be complete until I step back in that ring."

Also advertised -- and previously announced on WWE television -- are the following matches:

  • Kevin Owens vs. Daniel Bryan (with Rowan) for the WWE Championship
  • Shane McMahon and Cleveland native The Miz vs. The Usos for the Smackdown Tag Team Championship
  • Asuka vs. Mandy Rose for the WWE Smackdown Women's Championship
  • Appearances by Raw Women's Champion Ronda Rousey, Charlotte Flair and "many more."

Tickets for the show are still available via Flash Seats and The Q box office.
