#9 Be Accepted by the Fans as the Top Babyface

Try all they might, one thing WWE hasn't been able to award Reigns is the true status as the top babyface in the company.
Of course, this has been the mandate from the past few years and every possible attempt at making this a reality has been tried, but it's been a failure of an experiment thus far.
Reigns in unarguably one of the top performers in the company as far as the way he's booked, but the fans simply refuse to accept him as their next Hulk Hogan, Steve Austin, The Rock or even John Cena.
This is something he's going to have to overcome if he's to be the success story WWE wishes him to be and tries to claim he is.
Sadly, for him, the way he's been "shoved down everyone's throats" for years may have killed any chances of him being legitimately accepted as the right man for that spot, so while he can do everything else on this list, this is one thing he may not be able to accomplish.
