Vince McMahon No Longer Behind Roman Reigns as Top Star of WWE
According to a report from Daily Wrestling News, Vince McMahon is said to be extremely high on #SethRollins and #AJStyles right now. Apparently, Vince has made comments that he wishes he had brought Styles to WWE 10 years ago. McMahon has always been very high on Rollins, so that’s nothing new as he is seen "Busting his ass" in and out of the ring
Because of Vince McMahon’s feelings towards Rollins and Styles, there have reportedly been some talks within WWE that both men will become the faces of both #Raw and #SmackDown after the #WWEDraft and brand split. It’s recently been reported that John Cena will have a lighter schedule with WWE, but Reigns may have been knocked off the pedestal as the face of Raw.
It’s being said that Vince McMahon is very down on #RomanReigns right now. There are multiple sources claiming that Roman failed the WWE Wellness Policy at the worst possible time because Vince was apparently beginning to sour on him already. With the WWE Draft and brand split coming up so quickly, Vince most likely feels let down by Reigns, which has left Vince’s opinion to be lower on Reigns than it ever has been since he debuted in WWE.

The belief now is that McMahon and other WWE officials are far more open to giving Reigns’ momentum and push to someone else, like AJ Styles or Seth Rollins. Roman Reigns will still be a heavily featured performer on WWE television, but he’s going to be taking part in a “redemption” storyline for quite some time. He’s also rumored to be in line for a possible heel turn soon.
The biggest issue that Roman Reigns is going to face is competing with guys like Rollins and Styles while top talent from #NXT comes to WWE’s main roster. For example, #FinnBalor’s debut in WWE has been imminent for some time, but WWE officials have been waiting for the right time to bring him to Raw and SmackDown.
Balor is destined to be a massive superstar for WWE. Triple H, Vince McMahon, and other WWE officials are aware of that. Finn Balor is expected to receive a massive push when he comes to WWE TV, which is going to be another top spot that Reigns will have to fight for again. Not to mention, the other men in NXT like Samoa Joe, Shinsuke Nakamura, and others will demand top spots on WWE programming when they come to the main roster at the WWE Draft or later this year.
Becoming “The Guy” in WWE again could be too difficult for Roman Reigns if Vince McMahon is sour to him at this pivotal time for WWE programming. It’s very likely that Reigns will be taking a backseat for the foreseeable future when he returns. Roman will need to work twice as hard to regain his position in WWE, especially with the WWE Universe against him the way they have been for over a year-and-a-half. WWE is going to be a different place for Roman Reigns when he returns next week.

So is Rollins gonna continue as a heel or become a face?
>>1467541
He should've been a face when he came back.
Fans want to boo Roman so they might as well turn him heel.
>>1467531
Best WWE news in a long time.

>according to daily wrestling news
Vince is also said to be praising Big Cass.
>>1467566
No shit the guy is 7 foot tall.
>>1467534
I believe the part about Finn. Hunter is obviously got a hard on for him so he will be well protected on the main roster. He aslo good at selling merch with his demon gimmick and all.
That's a load of shit OP
>>1467531
Intentional false leak. Probably came straight from Vince's desk. They think that if fans think Roman is an *actual* underdog they'll get behind him.

It's reasonable. I'd like to see Roman as a heel and Seth as a babyface. It would suit them both more as they shit at doing the reverse.
>>1467606
Why do Jim Ross and Eric Bischoff and Stone Cold and a whole host of people far smarter to the industry than you or I ever will be call The Observer "The Wall Street Journal of pro wrestling"?
Why is The Rock a personal friend of Meltzer's if he's a liar hack who makes shit up?
Why is Jericho a source for Meltzer if he's a liar hack who makes shit up?
Imagine being this terrified of a journalist.
lmao at ur life

they're just meme spewing redditors from /r/squaredcircle
Roman jobbing to Big Show on main event when?
>>1467531
why the fuck did he stand behind roman for so many years when he was clearly a failure? He's supposedly this great business man and yet he would not budge on the guy who is getting lower house show numbers

Great non-news
Remember when Vince was "disappointed" with Randy Orton?

Best way to sell a redemption storyline is by turning them heel...

Maybe it's true. It does baffle me that a wellness issue would sour Vince on Roman if Vince was still behind him. One, because Vince is obviously just as juiced as any of his guys, but also it hasn't stopped him in the past.
Then again, Vince is crazy.
>>1467582
>And you can't teach that
>>1467872
John Cena isn't that far off in age from AJ Styles. How old was Stone Cold in his prime again?
>New guy
He is established and over with the crowd within MONTHS. They knew who he was when he debuted. Not much time needed to stardom.
I can't help but feel a LITTLE bit bad for Roman, he had been improving, albeit gradually, in the ring and it's not his fault he was given such horrible material by creative, even if he did give stiff deliveries anyway.
On the other hand, he's always come off like an entitled, thankless dipshit in shoot interviews and he pissed hot at the worst possible time, so I guess I don't feel very bad, after all.
>>1467872
You should probably go outside sometime FedoRamen
>2 heels being the face of your top brands
Hmmmm, smells like bullshit to me
>>1467872
>AJ
>new guy
even if they've never watched a second of TNA, the overwhelming majority of WWE fans at the very least knew of AJ so he's hardly "new"
Wow did a smark actually write that fud? Get help and get worked by based Roman
People will quickly tire of Finn balor and his three move set. Which is all kicks/stomps.
I just don't see it lasting for him.

FedoRamen seething with rage.
