14 Reasons 2015 Was The Worst Ever Year For WWE Creative

9. Roman Reigns

You knew this one was coming. As everyone knows by now, Roman is the man chosen by the WWE to be the next face of the company. The push started long ago, but it really started to "heat up" (yeah, right) at the 2015 Royal Rumble. Without exaggerating, I can honestly say that if the WWE wanted to make the crowd dislike Roman Reigns more than anyone in the company, they couldn't have done a better job. The problem is they were trying to make Roman Reigns beloved by the fans and turn him into the biggest babyface in the WWE. That's embarrassing. Do I really need to say that much more? The issues with Roman Reigns' booking have been well documented. WWE continues to highlight this man's weaknesses, putting him in positions that he shouldn't be in, and booking him in the most incredible ways (a Daniel Bryan-esque underdog, that'll make fans cheer him!). With the entire year's worth of planning leading to a crowning moment for a superstar who isn't even remotely close to being over at the level the top spot demands, it's no wonder 2015 has been brutal.
