12 WWE Superstars Without Direction Following WrestleMania 33

1. Roman Reigns

As impossible as it seems to comprehend, Roman Reigns' decisive victory over The Undertaker at the 'Show of Shows' has left him somewhat isolated and exposed.

Despite being the foil for Brock Lesnar and Braun Strowman to enquire about in their own promos against one another, 'The Big Dog' didn't interact with a single figure on the post-WrestleMania edition of Monday Night Raw, and may even find himself traded to Smackdown Live! in the as-yet-unclear 'Superstar Shake-up' due to shuffle the decks in weeks to come.

Unless they happen to be holding gold, or can proffer a realistic argument for defeating Roman, his next opponent will find themselves in an unenviable position.

Sure to be a despised heel despite not being booked as one, Reigns threatens to derail the momentum of his opponent through the complete disdain he's certain to draw in the weeks and months ahead.

That can be considered a rousing success for the company, who have strategically positioned him as the top heel without actually having to turn him. But unless he rapidly claims a top title from brand new champions Randy Orton or Brock Lesnar, his newfound dominance may appear slightly hollow.
