Anyone whos watched Raw during the Attitude Era knows that Vincent Kennedy McMahon doesnt take being one-upped or beaten up well. He might get knocked down, but the boss always comes back strong, seeking vengeance. So after Roman Reigns thwarted his plans and Superman punched him, Mr. McMahon has to have something severe in store for the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, right? Hes not going to come out and capitulate, so youve got to wonder what its going to be. Will he strip Reigns of his title for putting his hands on the boss? Will he force him into a multi-man match? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yddwfQKc1ZA If WWE wanted to really stack the deck, Mr. McMahon could force Reigns to put his title up in the Royal Rumble match, with Roman drawing #1 and having to go through 29 other men to defend his championship. Thats not a suggestion that they do that, but it could be an interesting and different way to punish Reigns.
