[Buddy] Murphy would benefit from an alliance with Roman Reigns. All said and done, 2019 and 2020 weren't bad years for him. It was the first time he started to get regular TV time on the WWE main roster.

Murphy's alliance with Seth Rollins was a large part of his direction in 2020 - including a brief reign as RAW Tag Team Champions.

Murphy hasn't been seen since early December 2020, and what better way to bring him back than by having him align with Roman Reigns? It would add to his character, and the fact that he was formerly allied with Seth Rollins would make the story more interesting.

An alliance with Roman Reigns is a much better direction for Murphy than a romantic angle with Rey Mysterio's daughter, Aalyah. He could do better with Roman Reigns than he did with Seth Rollins. It would continue to elevate him before WWE possibly thrusts him into a more serious singles position.
