10 WWE Wrestlers Who Tried To Kill Roman Reigns

It's been a rough week for Renee Young.

Forced to take on the futile task of batting back vapid Twitter trolls simply for posting a passing aside about folk tucking their ears into caps, the Raw commentator found herself hit with entirely unrelated critiques of her weekly work - critiques she then admirably owned in order to try and make the best of the very bad situation thrust upon her by the worst of the wrestling internet.

It's enough to send somebody off the deep end, which is perhaps where Young went upon spying an opportunity to get back to doing what she does better than anybody else in the organisation.

As explained to several of the circling Twitter buffoons, her true skill always lay in hosting. Able to take control of potential chaos on panels or backstage, Young was deft in the presence of pro wrestling madness - might she have orchestrated an evil plot to prove that Kayla Braxton wasn't half as equipped?

Braxton flapped and flailed after Roman Reigns hit the deck en route to his interview with her. One can presume her superiors won't be too pleased with her failing to complete her assignment, and who might be nearby to take back the spot if Kayla's head were to roll for the dead air?

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
