10 Best WWE Storylines Of The Last 5 Years
5. Roman Reigns Vs. Jey Uso (2020)
Though many would understandably point to The Tribal Chief's blockbuster rivalry with Brock Lesnar as the defining moment of his now two-world-title-sporting reign as the undisputed heelish face of WWE, another programme much earlier actually acts as the most significant and mesmerising piece of work he can hold his record-breaking name to.
Hot on the heels of running rings around Braun Strowman and The Fiend at Payback, Reigns became embroiled in an unexpected detour in the form of a main event set of skirmishes with his own flesh and blood. No, not good ol' Dwayne - though that mouth-watering showdown feels more like a matter of when than if right now.
Instead, it was none other than Jey Uso who stepped up to the conflicting plate, battling internally with the struggles of wanting to finally break out as a respected singles worker, maybe even winning the big one, and not wanting to p*ss off his meal ticket.
Shakesperian brawls ensued as Roman settled into his loud-mouth bully role with aplomb and the foundations for what would become easily the most exciting character of modern WWE times were firmly cemented into place.
