WWE keeps referencing and pointing out how Reigns and Ambrose are "brothers" and the last time they did that is when Rollins turned on The Shield. It seems their slowly building towards Kane turning on The Authority, so Reigns could take his spot. If Reigns turned his reasoning could be the fans not accepting him and he's sick of getting screwed and doing things the right way.

There's been some increased talk of a Roman Reigns heel turn at Elimination Chamber, possibly to join up with The Authority, but it's not something you should expect.

Though Roman is slowly gaining some fans back, turning heel wouldn't be a bad idea at all. Seth vs Trips is getting the foundation built. Dean is over as a face.

Roman is just kind of floating because there's really no heels for him to face. Why not add to the heel side an actual well built heel?

But that would actually help Roman develop a character and Lord knows we don't want that, huh WWE

Yeah, probably lifted from this very forum.

but it's not something you should expect.
Yeah, sums up these 'news reports'. Jeez, they arn't even trying anymore.

They need to do with Reigns what they did with Rock. Turn him heel, let him be himself and then hopefully eventually he'll either get mega heat and will be the biggest heel in the company or he'll finally get over and get cheers. Then they can turn him back when he's ready and procede to push him as a face when everyone is accepting him.

Lol no. The face pushes of guys in the past has never been totally up to fans, neither should it be, & Reigns should be no exception. Push him when he's ready, which by the time he finishes a heel run will be WAY too overdue. It doesn't take much looking to find people irrationally invested in hating him with no objectivity whatsoever, so if they wait for every fan to catch on, then they will be waiting WAYYYYY too long. I'm not waiting for Reigns to get better than everyone else which seems to be the standard a lot of fans have set for him. I just want him to be at an even enough level which if people can't see he is now, then they need be disregarded.

So kayfabe wise, an Ambrose heel turn makes more sense because it seems like something his character would do since he's crazy & unpredictable, & would still be the same, just less cartoonish things & he'd be gold with that. Non-kayfabe wise a Reigns heel turn makes more sense because fans want heel Reigns because the rest of the roster has everything all together & Reigns is the ONLY one lacking in anything & everything & it can only be fixed with a heel turn (Y).

I thought fans cared about in-character continuity since we all bitched about Bulgarian Rusev suddenly being Russian. Apparently not anymore.

Yup... but its not Reigns that is turning heel. Its Ambrose when he pins Reigns to win the title at SummerSlam. Why? Because the new Face of the Company doesn't have brothers, he has challengers. And if those challengers are a brother, he gets screwed by them as a teachable moment. First it was Rollins, next up is Ambrose. All part of the build of Roman Reigns as the new Face of the Company.

Pretty much from the day of WM31, they've had pretty much perfect booking for Roman. Keep in mind he has 6 more months of screwjobs in him before he wins the title at the same place he got booed out of just a year before, the 2016 Royal Rumble. Then he gets to face the two guys who betrayed him in the WM32 Main Event, vanquish them, and emerge as the new Face of the Company.

It seems their slowly building towards Kane turning on The Authority, so Reigns could take his spot.
Kane? LOL. You know what Kane turning on the Authority would be? Glenn Jacobs Future Endeavored because he'd no longer have a storyline. So no. That's not happening. But he is leading the charge against Rollins as the Authority's #1 Guy. Guess who he thinks should be the new #1?

Dean Ambrose, of course. Expect him to get screwed royally by The Authority yet again @ EC and win MITB after the attempted interference hilariously fails 'accidentally'.

been saying for the longest heel Reigns > face Reigns

but if he turns at EC and joins the Authority :maury

so Rollins turns on Reigns and Ambrose, then Rollins screws Reigns out of the title at WM and now Reigns joins back with Rollins like nothing ever happened.

you're right, fuck logic. :heston

only way that would work is if they did a double turn with Rollins and Reigns, which is too soon to happen at EC. Maybe SummerSlam would be more likely.
