3 best ways to book Roman Reigns at WrestleMania XXX

A star in the making

The biggest wrestling promotion in the world, the WWE is no longer the playing ground of the wrestlers like John Cenas, Batistas and the Randy Ortons; instead it has turned into the home of Daniel Bryans, Shields and the Wyatt Families.

The younger breed of wrestlers have been outclassing the popular ones for some time now and it’s all evident from the reactions of the fans that we see every week in and week out. The fans are giving marks to the wrestlers on basis of the performance rather than the popularity though the WWE believes the other way.

And one superstar who is well placed in this revolution is Roman Reigns. The muscle and power of the Hounds of Justice, Reigns is quickly turning out to be a fan favorite even though he belongs to a heel faction.

A Shield Breakup angle and a big face push is lined up for the big Samoan from the looks of it but the company needs to book him wisely at WrestleMania if they are to pull it off successfully. So let’s take a look at the three possible matches that Roman Reigns could be put into so that WWE could have a big name at their account after WrestleMania.

3 – Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins vs. Dean Ambrose

Time to fight each other

The most obvious choice from the lot, a triple threat match between the hounds of Justice has been heavily rumored around the Internet Wrestling Community. Buildup that the company has been giving for the Shield’s eventual breakup also suggests the same.

Dragging Seth Rollins into the match is the only obstacle that blocks this match from happening as he has been some sort of mediator between Reigns and Ambrose.

Rollins getting fed up with the frequent tussles and urging the team to break up could work well with the storyline and solve the problem of his involvement. As each man would be bound to prove that he is the best among the trio, the match would stand out on various levels.

Seeing three future main event stars fighting it out in the ring will also make the fans happy and will set the stage for Reigns to rise.

However, Rollins and Ambrose should be booked carefully after this as the company should make sure that they don’t get carried away with pushing Roman Reigns and forget the other two in the process.

2 – Roman Reigns vs. Batista vs. Randy Orton (WWE World Heavyweight Championship)

Much needed main event injection

One might argue that it’s too early to put Roman Reigns into the title picture, but do WWE have any other choice?

Having a singles match between Batista and Randy Orton is a sure disaster as the fans would be having a tough time regaining their sounds after jeering for the same.

Since Batista is out saying that he can beat everyone and issues opens challenge, the Shield could take on him in a gauntlet like match each week with Reigns being the only one able to win against the Animal. Beating the No. 1 contender puts him in the driving seat for a title shot and some threat to Triple H and taunts to Batista will land him the spot in the match.

The presence of Roman Reigns will make the match worth watching as the fans will have more than something to cheer about.

Meanwhile, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose could be pushed into a two- on-two tag team match against the Wyatt Family leaving them jealous and eventually costing Reigns the match.

Reigns will be a baby face after this, the Shield will be over, Batista- Orton match will find life, Reigns won’t win the title soon as well which makes it the second best way to book Reigns at WrestleMania.

1 – Triple H vs. Roman Reigns

Unleash the Beast within

It’s a long shot but will work wonders if pulled off correctly.

To start of the feud, first Triple H should order the Shield to beat down Daniel Bryan which would be rejected by Roman Reigns. Angered by the reaction that he got, Triple H would then put each member of the Shield in a free or fired match with their careers on the lines.

Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose could lose their respective matches and thus getting fired leaving Roman Reigns as the only from the Shield with a job.

On the parallel scene Daniel Bryan could earn his way into the WrestleMania main event by beating Batista in an open challenge thus setting up a triple threat match for the title.

Meanwhile, seeing his partners lose their job, Reigns could challenge Triple H for a match at Mania with the following stipulations.

If Reigns wins, Ambrose and Seth Rollins will get their jobs back if Triple H wins Reigns loses his own job. Putting his career on the line for his friends will clearly turn Reigns a face.

At WrestleMania, he could beat Triple H and bring back Ambrose and Rollins only to provide one last twist in the tale.

Ambrose and Rollins could align with Triple H post match and take out Reigns thus completing his face turn and making him a singles wrestler. Reigns could then go on to feud with his former partners and Triple H and establish himself as a top star.

Elsewhere adding Daniel Bryan into the main event will make the stale match a super hit and Bryan winning the title over Randy Orton and Batista will underline a successful WrestleMania.
