#2 Roman Reigns
Trending
As you let out an immense groan and sigh in disappointment that Roman Reigns is on this list, truly ask yourself if your dissatisfaction with how WWE has booked him negates all of the other factors at play here.
Roman Reigns is undoubtedly one of the top men in the company, like it or not, and that isn’t going to change any time soon. By default, he would be a priority WWE would sooner book than almost anybody else on this list just purely out of star power.
Also, before everyone jumps on the bandwagon to say he can’t wrestle and that the match would be terrible, just look back at how things turned out with AJ Styles, as that was far from a train wreck of a feud.
Clearly, Angle sees some value behind a match with Reigns, too, as he was yet another name on his shortlist, which means this has a higher likelihood of happening than everything listed already.
There’s flexibility behind the potential booking of this as well. If WWE prefers to keep trying to convince fans to cheer for Reigns as a babyface, Angle has it in him to be a heel with ease.
On the other hand, if WWE’s creative team is willing to accept the inevitable cheers Angle will get when facing off with Reigns, this could be one of the best opportunities to have the big dog turn heel against a beloved legend.
Imagine the heat a villainous Roman Reigns would get for defeating Kurt Angle after a decade’s absence! It would be deafening, which could propel Reigns into the stratosphere when it comes to being a top villain in the company.
