5 things that prove WWE's current product isn't as bad as fans claim

#4 Properly building up Roman Reigns

How much longer before Roman Reigns gets thrown into the title picture?

Let's be honest here.

Roman Reigns' path to becoming WWE's biggest babyface hasn't been an easy one and while WWE is doing a great job of building him for the future now, that wasn't always the case. In fact, between his bland personality at the beginning and the company constantly pushing him down fans throats, one had to wonder what the appeal was at the time.

But then The WWE Universe got to see a different side of Roman Reigns on an episode of Raw right before SummerSlam. Not only did the promo that Reigns cut that night signal the beginning of building him as a fighting champion, but it also was a transition towards a more heelish character.

While WWE did eventually have to take the title off of Reigns due to his real-life Leukemia diagnosis, Reigns's returned to the full support of The WWE Universe and is doing quite well in a feud with Shane McMahon right now. Beyond that, his rise to the top feels a lot more organic this time, which is important.

In the end, putting Reigns up against a heel Shane McMahon is probably the best decision the company could make and is getting fans behind Reigns by the boatload. Its also setting the stage for a coronation that took years in the making.
