10 WWE Questions You Most Want Answered (July 7th)
9. Will Reigns Win (And Turn Heel) At Battleground?
First and foremost, I would love this booking decision. Having Roman mercilessly beat down his former Shield stablemates with the referee unconscious would be genius, and finally align the trio's face-heel dynamic with fan expectations.
Sadly, I can't see it happening. Reigns is WWE's new Cena, a figurehead they're never planning to turn heel. His recent 30-day suspension could have provided the perfect excuse to turn him, but the responses of Dean Ambrose (forgiving) and Seth Rollins (merciless) seem to suggest that Roman is still very much Team Babyface.
Worse still, WWE could well run with a road to redemption storyline, painting Reigns as even more of a hero than before.
