5 signs Roman Reigns will win the Universal title at WWE Payback

#2 Roman Reigns aligning with Paul Heyman on Friday Night Smackdown

What does the future hold for Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman?

Roman Reigns aligned with Paul Heyman in the closing moments of Friday Night SmackDown this week and while some had their jaws literally drop on the floor, it all kind of makes sense. In fact, making Heyman Reigns' "advocate" guarantees that he is now a heel and on track for a title victory.

With that being said and Vince McMahon always getting flip floppy when it comes to The Fiend as his top draw, it makes sense for Reigns to win the Universal Title at Payback. At least that way, WWE can rely on a guaranteed box office draw, Heyman gives Reigns' an added layer to his character and WWE does something new.

In the end, it's a sound strategy and legitimately has fans interested in what is going to happen next. If nothing else, that's exactly what the company needs right now and this alliance between Heyman and Reigns could deliver something interesting.
