Road to WWE WrestleMania XXX: Ideal path for Roman Reigns

Ready to break out

If the fans had to name a young star in the WWE roster that is ready to breakout as the next face of the company, the whole WWE Universe would chant the name of Roman Reigns.

The big Samoan who has blood ties with the Rock is surely on the path of his relative in terms of the push he is getting. Slowly, the WWE creative team is moulding Reigns into a babyface monster similar to that of Batista’s character a few years back.

And for the future of Reigns 2014 is going to be a crucial year as is going to rubberstamp his run as a singles wrestler. Thus booking him through to the WrestleMania should be done carefully in order to keep the potential intact. So here is a look at the ideal path for Roman Reigns in the road to WrestleMania.

The most dominating superstar in Royal Rumble

Dominating Rumble

The SummerSlam, Survivor Series, Royal Rumble and WrestleMania are considered to be the biggest stages in the WWE.

Reigns has already left his mark in the Survivor Series by single handedly making his team win. Now it’s the turn for Royal Rumble. The best way to book Reigns in the Royal Rumble would be to make him the superstar with the most number of eliminations.

The numbers will call out how dominating Reigns was in the ring and a final four berth also would be a great thing. For a rising star of his caliber, a buildup of momentum in the Rumble is crucial.

But the core of the eliminations should include Erick Rowan and Luke Harper with Bray Wyatt if he isn’t eliminated by Daniel Bryan.

After that Reigns could be eliminated by a big name like Batista or CM Punk thus protecting him in the process.

The Mind Games

the mind games

The amount of friction that the Wyatt Family and Shield have in-between is no secret. They even made the crowd go wild with a face off last time they teamed up. With the Wyatts concluding their storyline with Daniel Bryan at the Rumble, the trio will be left with no angle.

But the thing is, you don’t get out free after eliminating the Wyatt family at Royal Rumble making Roman Reigns a target for the creepy guys.

And obviously, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose would get involved in the feud as well due to the sheer destructive nature of the Wyatts.

But the fact is that, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose didn’t do anything to the Wyatts, it was only Roman Reigns.

Rollins and Ambrose could blame Reigns for locking horns with the Wyatt Family and thus sowing the seeds for the eventual breakup of the Shield. At the same time, Bray Wyatt would go deep with his promos and make sure that his opponents are weak cum the showdown.

Potential ticket seller

All those mind games is going to culminate in this dream match that the new age fans have been waiting for.

The match would be a treat to watch as it sure promises to be at the top level in both in ring action and psychology. The Wyatts should be made to look like too hot for the Shield.

Rollins and Ambrose should get a lot of punishment at the hands of the Wyatts while Reigns would come in to shift the momentum. But there is a limit for everything, and once Rollins and Ambrose gets to that stage they are going to leave Reigns alone in the ring for the Wyatts to prey on.

Bray should then pin Reigns so that Bray gets the push in the process when Reigns gain all the sympathy from the fans.

Bray could then move on to a feud with some high profile name while Reigns will be left with the questions about the swerve of his teammates.

The Answers and the Buildup to WrestleMania

Its his problems not ours

“We had nothing to do with the Wyatts, Reigns got involved and he should face the consequences alone” this should be the argument made from Rollins and Ambrose after their swerve at the Elimination Chamber.

They could further show Reigns as a weak link or trouble maker in the team.

Meanwhile, Reigns would come out and question the whole being a team thing. He is sure to get the chants of the crowd going up against his partners thus making it a half turn already.

The trio could be booked in a rematch with the Wyatts at Raw with Rollins and Ambrose doing the same thing in order to add more effect.

Reaching the limit, Reigns would then snatch and deliver power bombs to both his partners in the next meet up they have. This is the complete turn of Reigns and the tension is going to force Triple H to book a 2 on 1 handicap match at WrestleMania.

The New babyface monster in town

With anger controlling him, Reigns would enter into the match with only one thing in his mind: Destroy Rollins and Ambrose.

Rollins and Ambrose could try every dirty trick in the book to get the win, but Reigns would emerge as the winner despite all these. Such a dominating victory at a grand stage like WrestleMania will surely act as the launch for his singles career.

He could also lose his Shield outfit and sport a new creative one. There are plenty of options for Reigns to be explored after this with the title scene being one of the best.

Meanwhile, Rollins and Ambrose can recruit someone from NXT and rebuild the shield from the scratch with Reigns and the new trio crossing paths in the future.
