Who Would be the Guy?
By Scott Keith on 20 August 2018
By now it’s pretty obvious that the way to go is to turn Roman Reigns and have him lead a heel shield faction. He would hold the belt for a while and then eventually give it up to a conquering babyface. My question is who would be that babyface? Who is on the roster currently or in nxt that fits Vince’s ideal of a carry the company type superstar? They gave Bryan, Balor, and Rollins a shot at title runs only to see them get injured so I would think they were out. Lashley just fought Roman to less than mild reactions. Ambrose might get there but he’s coming off an injury and was basically treated like a joke prior to that. I don’t see anyone in NXT that works on a top top guy level. It’s basically just Braun who is a better heel in my opinion or stay with the Roman babyface mega push until he magically gets over or dies trying. Does that about sum it up?
Yeah, I think we're in for a lot of Roman v. Braun over the next few months.
