The night after WrestleMania
Reigns returns to the ring amidst heavy boos since he will naturally be hated for ending Taker’s career. Reigns could then cut a scintillating promo along the following lines to turn heel at last:
“I told you people that I was going to bury Taker in hell and I did. But I realized something last night. Last night, to be precise, when I ended Taker’s career.
You know what it is (he teases being a face), I realized how great Taker was to retain such love from you for all these years. The love I have been trying to earn from you for a long time. But...
I am sick of you idiots cheering for some old washed up guys like Taker and booing me. I am sick of these oldtimers hogging on to the spotlight that is rightfully mine.
I am sick of you morons chanting for people who are weak and washed up like Taker. And you know what, it gave me such huge pleasure to end that miserable has-been’s career.
And in that moment, I realized something. Something that I have been missing for a long time. Like an epiphany.
If these old timers don’t want to give up the spotlight that is rightfully mine, then I will take it away from them. I will take what is rightfully mine. I will end their careers if I have to.”
Fans drowned out a popular wrestler with 'She's a racist' chants recently
Thus Reigns turns heel in an explosive fashion and becomes the top heel on the roster with a single promo.
