Roman Reigns post-comeback reactions have already soured.

For a while it looked like 'The Big Dog' would be hotter than the sun, but the first signs of dissent came at WrestleMania 35. What was supposed to be a cathartic win over Drew McIntyre played out to cricket chirps. The crowd weren't interested, and while Reigns is still received well in some cities, hostile receptions on this year's post-'Mania Raw and WWE's latest UK-based SmackDown highlight the issues with his presentation.

The company must address this at Money In The Bank. They must do everything in their power to stop Roman from sliding back into the old abyss, and that means big changes to the way he's promoted inside the ring and out, starting with Sunday's match against Elias.

'The Drifter' shouldn't muster a slither of offence against 'The Big Dog,' and should fall within 120 seconds. Reigns must batter him. A slow, sluggish 10-12 minute chinlock-fest will only worsen his situation. He needs to come off like an exciting, adrenaline-pumping wrestler, not a boring staller, and Elias is ostensibly a jobber to the stars. He isn't above taking the odd PPV shellacking.
