Reigns and Taker facing off on Raw

This should be controversial, but I think the feud between Reigns and Undertaker was really good. If we forget for a moment that it was Roman Reigns on one side, the feud had a great build up and a good pay off. The match was weak but given Taker's physical condition no one really expected the match to be a classic. What made this match awesome was the aftermath of this feud. Reigns' 5-word promo on next night's Raw and his character portrayal thereafter was better than any Roman Reigns we had seen till then.

The feud began at Royal Rumble 2017 where Reigns eliminated The Undertaker and mouthed "This is my Yard" to the camera. From there, the two met in several segments on Raw where they slowly built up to their WrestleMania encounter. The segments were good and some channelled the old Undertaker with the creepy graveyard videos. The match main event Wrestlemania and was nothing special with Roman not being able to carry Taker to a good match. But the ending to the match was one of the most emotional moments in WWE history.

The pay off of the match was the biggest part of the rivalry as it elevated Roman to a role he is much more suited to play. Rather than his underdog babyface thing, his current gimmick is much more suited to The Big Dog and we can be thankful to this rivalry for it.
