5 Reasons why Roman Reigns does not need to turn heel

Does the Big Dog need to become a heel?

#3 He fights a very ‘babyface style’

A ‘heel-superman punch’?

One thing you can say for Roman is that he’s managed to master the art of using a limited offence very effectively. This is the ideal style for your top characters, just ask John Cena and Randy Orton.

As previously mentioned, part of being a consistent, top star is avoiding numerous injuries, and having a few power moves in your arsenal. This lets the other guy do most of the work for you. The Superman punch, Samoan drop, drive-by and spear are all Roman really needs, and all of these moves suit a babyface more than a heel.

They are high-impact, and always get a reaction from the crowd. Being a heel often means you need to employ more lengthy holds to allow the babyface to draw some support and energy from the fans. It also means being able to sell effectively so that the babyface can look strong.

From what we’ve seen so far, there’s not much to suggest that Roman will be able to do either of these.
