Roman Reigns has quite a bit of creative pull in WWE
Reigns is hands down the biggest superstar in WWE today. He has beaten the very best over the past two years, sells tons of merch on a regular basis, and boasts a massive fan following.
He has spoken up in the past about not needing approval from WWE's higher-ups when it comes to storylines:
“No, because I’m responsible, and I’ve handled that responsibility for years now. They trust me. I’d never go out there and say anything that would affect our business. That’s the key. And that’s especially at the time we’re in right now with the guard shifting, it’s key that Triple H can see that in a lot of these younger people. You have seen those slip-ups. You have seen those little live conundrums happen to people out there using words.” [H/T WrestleZone]
Reigns and McIntyre beat the tar out of each other for about 30 minutes at Clash at the Castle. The match was marred by interference from Solo Sikoa, who helped Reigns defeat McIntyre and retain his Undisputed WWE Universal title.
