Any time - although with Old Man Jones' arthritis it will likely just be an erratic scribble.

Still can't get over the fact that at the rumble they fucked up romans part so badly
"and then we'll have roman get stretchered out" "no we have to make him look strong he will walk out on his own power" "If he is good enough to walk why doesn't he walk back to the ring? and show his championship spirit" "Quiet you" |

I just can't think of really any top babyface ever who walked away from a fight.
Consider the audience there that night - the diehards, the lifelong fans. The fans who have seen Mick Foley thrown off Hell in a Cell and come back. Hell, they don't even need long memories, they'd seen Ambrose and Owens go through tables and beat each other to a pulp in the first match and keep going. |

That perfectly exemplifies everything wrong with this Reigns super-push though. They're just tagging him with all these qualities and moments willy-nilly without it. Mankind built up this reputation of never backing down or being a quitter, it was what made his character so interesting. He would sooner black out and damn near kill himself than quit a match, which made the feud with The Rock so great (with the piped in "I quit" and everything)
Now all of a sudden Reigns has this same tenacity despite nobody having any reason to really care that he won't quit... just seems like status quo vanilla booking |

On the topics of reigns bashing I thought it was completely out of his character to call Tables, ladders and chairs "Toys" during his sheamus feud.
I'd expect hearing that from Dean Ambrose or Bray Wyatt since they are off kilter, but not the clean cut babyface. |

Good god I really hope that Ambrose takes off and Reigns goes heel like you guys discussed, that would be fantastic and shake things up enough to be interesting again.
THAT IS, unless they screw up his heel push as badly as they have his face run. |
