10 WWE Things That Must Happen In The Second Half Of 2015

6. Roman Reigns Must Turn Heel

During his time with The Shield, Reigns was predicted to be the breakout babyface of the group. Despite being a heel faction, the crowd came alive whenever he was on offense or received the hot tag. He also has the stereotypical bodybuilder look Vince McMahon likes, so he was primed to flourish on his own and ascend to the main event level when The Shield disbanded. When Reigns won the 2015 Royal Rumble match, he was met with major backlash from fans who were hoping for a Daniel Bryan victory. He wasn't booed as badly on the road to WrestleMania, but he surely wasn't getting the huge reactions officials anticipated. Since coming up short in the main event of 'Mania, he's won over a number of his detractors with stellar performances against the likes of Brock Lesnar, Daniel Bryan and even Big Show. While he's faring well for himself at the moment, a heel turn and a potential pairing with Paul Heyman (or someone who could hide his weaknesses) could do wonders for his career. In addition to his character feeling fresh again, he could add to the lack of depth on the heel side of the roster and find more success in singles competition.
