Isn't a babyface supposed to play fair? Okay, let me rephrase that statement! Isn't the top babyface of your brand supposed to play fair especially when he's going up against a monster heel? 'He's a nice guy and that's why people will gravitate towards him' is the philosophy I always assumed WWE has been following.
But Seth Rollins hit Brock Lesnar with a barrage of low blows to gain the upper hand. He left him laying on the mat and delivered a curb stomp to the Beast Incarnate. In doing so, he came across as the heel and Lesnar, the babyface.

Female superstar says she inspired John Cena turning heel HERE
Is WWE setting the stage for a heel turn down the line? Especially now that Reigns is back?
I still do not see the WWE Universe cheering for Reigns over Rollins, even if Reigns has returned after battling a life-threatening disease.
