10 Booking Steps To Make Roman Reigns WWE's Greatest Heel
7. Reigns Joins The Authority
The main event of that night's Raw is set - it's Dean Ambrose vs Roman Reigns! Needless to say, they have a physical as hell bout, beating the crap out of each other and taking the contest right down to the wire. Ambrose dodges a spear. Reigns powers out of a Dirty Deeds. There's a mean double clothesline spot. It's all kicking off, and it could go either way. Who's gonna win this thing?! Suddenly, unexpected, Stephanie McMahon appears once again, walking down the ramp to seemingly take in this match for herself. Reigns and Ambrose both stare at her confused for a second, before getting straight back to knocking the crap out of each other. Reigns goes for another spear on Ambrose, but the Lunatic Fringe swerves it - sending Reigns crashing into the turnbuckle, seemingly injuring his shoulder! Errr nerrr! As the referee pauses the match to check on Reigns, Steph suddenly jumps up onto the apron, causing Ambrose to get in her face and demand that she, y'know, gets out of his face and suchlike. A heated argument ensues before, unbeknownst to the still distracted ref, Stephanie lands an almighty slap on Ambrose, hitting him so hard that he actually stumbles back a bit - turning round straight into a big-ass spear from Reigns! "Wait a minute! What the hell?!" roars a despairing Michael Cole as Reigns goes for the pin. 1...2...3! Shut up, Michael Cole! It's over! As a raging WWE Universe looks on, Reigns stands up and proceeds to shake hands with a grinning Stephanie McMahon, the two leaving the ramp together and looking back at a crestfallen - and very, very angry, Dean Ambrose. Cheeky Roman.
