What I think is really weird about WWE lately is that when you look at how everything has gone down lately, it seems as if, back in October/early November when the bottom fell out and ratings got to their worst point, they said "alright, fuck this, let's make some moves". They done a few out of the box things since - signing AJ and letting him be AJ. Hiring Mauro Ranallo and letting him be awesome. King as a heel. Signing Nakamura and the Bullet Club. Making moves to bring up Samoa Joe after Mania (apparently) when they never planned to before. The womens division went closer to an NXT style build with a week-to-week story and the promo video package like they used down there.

Point being, I'm intrigued by 2016. They may fall on old habits until Mania because they have nothing else due to injury, and given the company direction, this might be the best scenario for Reigns in the short term, moreso than any other hotshot angle.

The downside is, it feels like they need to get Mania out of the way more than anything else, so they can start to do the real work this year.
