The Universal Champion Roman Reigns had a blockbuster run ever since he returned at WWE Summer Slam last year. He won the Universal Championship within a week and booked as dominant force along with Paul Heyman and Jey Uso on his side.
Now, we got an update about his dominant booking as champion instead of cowardly heel in WWE. According to the WrestlingNews.co, reason for Roman Reigns dominant booking in his feuds is to make him look more strong when he faces The Rock at WrestleMania. It was also noted that Vince McMahon’s top priority is to protect Roman at any cost before his big match against The Rock.
“Also, we were told that the reason why Reigns is booked to dominate his feuds is because of the feeling that he needs to be booked like this for when he wrestles The Rock.”
“Vince doesn’t want to portray Roman as a cowardly heel who gets his a** kicked 50 percent of the time. He’s the guy who will carry the company for the next few years and Vince sees him as his top priority. Protect Roman at all costs.” [H/T: WrestlingNews.co]
Roman Reigns currently the top heel in WWE and Vince McMahon doing everything to build up him as major villian. His biggest win came against Edge and Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania 37 this year, in which he pinned both the superstars same time. Currently, he set to face Rey Mysterio at Hell In A Cell Pay-Per-View with Universal Championship on line.
