I’ve lost patience with Roman Reigns. Even when most fans over the age of 13 were whaling on him for being nothing more than a long-haired Cena, I still thought he could make it as a face. After watching him constantly be pitted as the underdog despite his size and power, his period as a hero has turned me sour – when was the last time Reigns lost clean?

A lot of fans are calling for Reigns to turn heel and after the missed opportunity that was Survivor Series 2015, he needs to turn sooner rather than later. By rehashing the Daniel Bryan storyline of a wronged face, Creative are trying to force fan sympathy, but it just isn’t going to work. When you consider his natural attitude, physique and demeanour, Reigns would make the perfect heel.

Don’t believe me? Check out this promo from his time in NXT.
