The crowd finally started supporting Roman Reigns. This is a positive sign on the road to WrestleMania. There is long term potential with Reigns. While Batista's return is beneficial for the product's ratings, it is Reigns who has to ultimately carry the company in the long run.

There are many storylines that can be explored with Roman Reigns. A possible Shield reunion, a heel Roman Reigns against Seth Rollins or vice versa on the post-WrestleMania season, or a storyline against trending stars like McIntyre or Lashley. The possibilities are endless with Roman Reigns.

If the crowd reaction towards Roman Reigns stays for a longer period then he can be set up for a title reign for SummerSlam or a major pay per view after that.
