Will WWE turn Roman heel soon?

#3 The bland character

Well, this one is WWE creative’s fault entirely. When The Shield broke up, it was obvious to everyone that the three superstars would get a major push. WWE Creative did a good job of establishing Rollins’ cunning trait and that Ambrose was a crazy guy. But, what did they establish with Roman?

Without establishing anything regarding Roman they pushed him to the main event at Mania. And of course, fans booed him. Compared to the other two members of his stable, Reigns came off as bland. There is no interesting feature in his character.

Moreover, WWE pits him against characters who are far more interesting than him like Wyatt, Lesnar, Ambrose, Rollins, Triple H and Daniel Bryan. By doing so, WWE shines the spotlight on his flaws unintentionally and most of these guys are fan-favourites rather than heels. The only exception was his feud against The League of Nations, and naturally, Reigns’ star shined brighter at that time.

WWE Creative has to do something about it sooner than later. Right now, they are putting him off as an arrogant douchebag, which seems to be working. There has been speculation about how Roman will turn out when this angle plays out. After a long time, fans are talking about Roman without ridiculing him. There is this new freshness in his character and with clever booking, this could turn out well for him.
