#1 Roman Reigns can climb to even greater heights when WWE begins to tour again

When Roman Reigns returned to WWE after a period away from the company at last year's SummerSlam pay-per-view, he did so with a whole new attitude.

No longer the promotion's most-pushed babyface, Reigns was now a heel. Aligned with his Special Counsel Paul Heyman, he continually demanded the world acknowledge him as The Tribal Chief.

Reigns want to be recognized as the top guy in the company - and WWE has booked him accordingly. He hasn't suffered defeat in a one-on-one contest since he reappeared at SummerSlam.

The Tribal Chief is presented as the most dominant force in the company. He won the WWE Universal Championship just seven days after his return.

Since then, Reigns has picked up emphatic victories over Kevin Owens, Drew McIntyre, Edge, and Daniel Bryan among others.

As good as Reigns has been in the ring, his work on the microphone has been even better. When Roman Reigns makes a statement during a promo, it genuinely feels like he believes what he is saying. Reigns has contempt for everyone around him.

This part of Reigns' persona will be enhanced when fans return to WWE shows - as he will be able to air all of his issues with the audience directly to their faces. The unique direction in which Roman has taken his character is perfect for the live event environment.
