I m not afraid to admit I was dead wrong about this feud, I felt Reigns would destroy Wyatt and make him look terrible in the process however I have been pleasantly surprised to find I've actually enjoyed it. Wyatt has finally been vicious again, mind games and then actually backed up his words in the fight. Now personally I'd put this feud on hold for now. I'd have Wyatt and Harper(maybe Ascension also) beat down Reigns tomorrow to the point he's on a stretcher. I'd have him gloat the following week only for Sting to return to set up a feud with Wyatt for summerslam(there's rumours of Wyatt/Sting) as, IF they book Wyatt in similar fashion to the Reigns feud then that's huge win for Wyatt to elevate him maybe after a title. However there's a slight problem, last night Wyatt got a mainly face reaction and to a point he played up to it and if he feuds with Sting he isn't going to be a babyface/tweener(if that was their aim). They have seemingly finally repaired and refreshed his character to what it should be so it's vital if this feud goes ahead that Wyatt comes out on top in an equally vicious and dominant way. My fear is WWE will have Wyatt/Harper beat up Reigns for Sting to make save and a tag match will be made for Summerslam Reigns/Sting win and all the past months good work is undone.

Onto Reigns, I've made no secret that im not a fan and that's mainly due to the way he's been booked since returning and I've also said that in my opinion the only way to get him over as one of the biggest faces(face of the company level) is for him to go heel first probably with The Authority as their bad ass enforcer. Possibly if they do a injury angle with Wyatt he could return to screw Rollins vs Sheamus only for it to turn out he was doing it for HHH not against. Reigns goes heel and Rollins is face ready for HHH feud. Then you could have Reigns feud with Ambrose at Summerslam as a untried fresh feud. After the dust settles following Summerslam Wyatt complete with followers sets his sights on Sheamus title and the Authority which is fresh but also involves Reigns wanting revenge for the attack he endured.

Further down the line when Reigns finally turns on the Authority he will be more over than ever. If HHH is intent on Reigns being a future face of the company then he needs to get him really over first. Judging by last night he's getting more mixed reactions than ever and whenever he looked to do his 3 or 4 moves of doom last night he was booed and whenever both men were down it was the Wyatt chants that were louder. To be clear I m not a fan of Reigns at the moment but I was pre injury and I can see the potential for star but his booking is screwing him over. I'm hoping they keep Wyatt and Reigns apart for a while so Wyatt doesn't lose his momentum and Reigns can be rebuilt hopefully for heel turn soon. These are only my views, on another note Im thinking a tweener/babyface Wyatt family could really do something at the moment as Wyatt was over and acting up to the chants, he has the catchphrases, mic work, charisma, entrance and his ring work his getting better every match, give him some followers and send him after The Authority and/or some titles. As always I am interested in everyone's views and I know some will say I hate Reigns or what not but this isn't the case in fact I feel that they can do something big with both these guys and the time is now.

It was seriousley their best solo match of their careers. It stole the show no doubt. But I think they need to keep them apart to maintain Wyatt's momentum. Wyatt's character I agree has finnally been revitalized, hope they keep the booking up. Now Wyatt has a big win over Reigns, he can do any promos about being the new face of fear all he wants. This time he can back it up. I would prefer Wyatt/Harper v Reigns/Ambrose. AS their is more chance Wyatt and co would go over, and Reigns would be protected. With Sting I don't know. I was really surprised too with the crowd reaction to Wyatt, he was really over.

The Rock was probably first massivley superstar over after being the Coperate champ. Reigns doesn't need to be champ he can just play on the boos turn on the fans for the ruining his chances at WM there's loads of stuff he can bring up he's the chosen one etc. As long as he's not a cowardly heel like Rollins he can just be a tough guy who does anything to win. When he finally turns he will be over like rover and hopefully the mixed reactions will go.
