3 WWE Superstars that were affected by Roman Reigns' continuous push

Over the past few decades every major promotion has hand picked one performer that embodied the spirit of the company. Every era in the wrestling business has seen the rise of a megastar that carried the wrestling business on their shoulders.

From Ric Flair in the NWA to Sting in WCW there have been performers that have christened as the face of the company not by the management but by the fans themselves. Vince McMahon has always had a knack of picking the right people to lead the WWE into the new era.

Over the past few years we had seen the management trying their best to push Roman Reigns. But they have been unsuccessful in persuading the fans to get behind him as the face of the company. Roman Reigns push adversely affecting the other talent in the locker room.

WWE refuses to acknowledge the fact that the fans have their own opinions and want their elected stars to be the next mega face of the company.

Here are 3 Superstars who were negatively affected by Roman Reigns' continous push.

#3 Braun Strowman

The Monster among Men

The Monster Among Men was involved in a high stakes rivalry with Reigns and he was booked as an unstoppable force meeting an immovable object. WWE noticed that Strowman was getting louder pops than Reigns so they made sure to sidetrack Braun's progress and focus on Reigns instead.

While Strowman competed for the universal title the idea was always for Roman Reigns to dethrone Brock Lesnar thereby cementing his status as the flagship star of the company.

Strowman is one of the most popular stars in the WWE today and it's a crying shame that the company was hell bent on making Reigns the face of the organization while holding back the other talent.

#2 Finn Balor

First ever Universal Champion

Finn Balor was the first ever Universal champion and while the Irishman vowed to go after the universal title upon his return the past year has been underwhelming for the stars.

Finn Balor had the charisma, skill set and the in-ring talent needed in a top talent but WWE's efforts in pushing reigns has largely kept Finn on the back burner. Balor had won a couple of matches against Roman and he was considered to be that he would be the one being pushed but that was not to be the case as Finn was relegated to the mid card.

WWE have invested so much in Reigns that it limits the opportunities for the other superstars in the locker room.

#1 Seth Rollins

Current Intercontinental and Raw tag team Champion

The current Intercontinental Champion, Seth Rollins had a phenomenal run as WWE champion. The fans believed that WWE were ready to get behind Rollins as in the new face of the company.

However even when the shield reunited it wasn't so much about Seth or Ambrose as it was about Roman Reigns. Rollins seems to be a natural face with his undeterred conviction being his biggest asset.

Rollins has always delivered best in the ring but the fact that the company was more interested in pushing Roman saw him fall down the pecking order.
