#1 Fresh rivalries

One of the biggest drawbacks of Roman Reigns’ run as the babyface is the limited set of opponents whom he can face in WWE. Time and again, he has squared off against other good guys but those names are a handful.

With a heel turn, there will be a whole new world of opportunities to have the ‘Big Dog’ square against some of the best in-ring workers in WWE.

Charlotte Flair to return and wrestle a CURRENT CHAMPION?

As previously stated, Reigns has improved inside the ring and now he needs opponents who can help bring attention to his skill-set. For that, he needs someone like Daniel Bryan to share the ring. If he moves to RAW, he can feud with Kevin Owens or Aleister Black and they will help create engaging rivalries.

He can even feud with Braun Strowman upon his return as the latter won the Universal Championship only after the ‘Big Dog’ backed out from the match. They also have history but this time, things could be different with Reigns being on the wrong side of the story.

Do you remember the SmackDown episode after WrestleMania 33 where he beat The Undertaker? Reigns walking into an arena echoing with boos and that went on for over 10 minutes. In the end, he just said ‘This is my Yard’ before leaving the ring. That was the best time for Reigns to make a heel turn. The second-best time is now.

The question remains, will WWE take their chances?
