7 Times Roman Reigns Acted Like WWE's Biggest Heel

1. Trying To Murder Braun Strowman

Remember when the vicious nWo smashed up The Rock with a huge truck in 2002? Hollywood Hogan and crew were the clear heels (despite being cheered for nostalgia reasons), but the same cannot be said for Roman Reigns in 2017. No, Reigns just wanted to maim Braun Strowman by reversing an ambulance into a nearby wall.

Strowman's win in the Ambulance Match at Great Balls Of Fire was pushed into the background as Roman stuffed his enemy in the back of the vehicle and attempted murder. Like a coward, he then left the scene, staring down a concerned Kurt Angle before walking off into the distance.

Again, how does that help make Reigns look like WWE's top babyface? Trying to kill Braun, he also fled a crime scene and refused to apologise for his actions afterwards. Aren't faces supposed to be, y'know, heroic? This was the work of a deranged psychopath.
