WWE had been trying their best to push Roman Reigns as the face of the company for years. However, a large chunk of the WWE fanbase was not on-board with WWE's decision and would often boo Reigns despite him being a 'good guy'.

All that changed last year when Reigns turned heel and debuted the Tribal Chief persona. The Universal Champion has impressed his fans and critics with his work as The Head of the Table on SmackDown and is being called a natural heel.

Dr Tom Prichard, who trained Roman Reigns during his early days in WWE, spoke to SportsKeeda on Unskripted and talked about what the future may hold for The Big Dog:

''I think it's a respect that the more he does, the more respect he will gain. It's kind of like Cena. Even though people boo Cena or do the Angle chant when Kurt would come out, you knew, and fans still respected those guys because they were professional, and they performed every night on that level,'' said Prichard.

He also talked about the possibility of Roman Reigns turning babyface again:

''As long as he gets to be himself. Yeah. I certainly think there is another babyface run for Roman Reigns," added Prichard.
