oh. I guess? I was just saying they may as well just book Reigns as champion. There's a specific formula they book to, Roman kind of adheres to it, so it fits in with everything.

Roman's pretty good, just not quite there. Hopefully with time at the top and develops the same he has been, just needs to not pander as much and not be such a cliche, but he'll figure it out eventually.

Makes sense

I look at it like Reigns clearly connects with the vast majority of the audience. Some hate him, most like him, but they all care about him. Most of his matches on top have been really good, so I think he deserves another real run on top. His initial run was disjointed because all the injuries caused changes to the lineup, and they had to be creative with getting Hunter the strap. Not to mention the unfortunate issue with the wellness violation. Now they have a chance to promote a major show with him in a top spot and give the proper payoff you expect from a babyface title chase.

But then you have another potential stud in Braun coming up, so do you put the rocket pack on him or do you just use his size to help tell a sympathy story with Roman and have him overcome his greatest obstacle. That may further cement Reigns as the Superman of the company. Either way, good to have options.

Agree on both of these. Reigns isn't close to what the WWE believes he is as a mega star but since they don't truly care about anyone else on RAW sans Charlotte and Strowman, might as well just give him the Universal belt. Then they can see the fruit of their plans fall apart again like the previous times he was champ.

He's probably 2-3 years away from being the mega star they want but only if he followed a Rock-like route for his development and booking. Going even stronger in Super Cena or LOLCenaWins type booking isn't helping him at all.

RAW would benefit a lot more if their mid-card was a lot stronger than them keeping on half-assing the US belt's treatment or not being committed when one of their non-hand pick stars has a US or Universal reign.
