9. Roman Reigns Wins The 2015 Royal Rumble
The look on The Rock's face in this picture says, "Vince, you're an idiot. If any of these Philly a**holes hits me with anything, my price goes up $10,000." A year after Daniel Bryan defied the odds and BATISTA winning the Royal Rumble to main event Wrestlemania, Roman Reigns absolutely survived 29 other combatants and staved off a challenge from DB to make it to the showcase of the immortals this year. Of course, if you ask any member of the WWE Universe if that's the finish they wanted to see, well, you're probably not going to get an answer in the affirmative. Roman Reigns is a developing top star. Is he a top star yet? Certainly not. Can the crowd see through this? Absolutely. In this being the case, Vince McMahon couldn't've been more wrong in making a decision.
