The moment Seth Rollins hit Roman Reigns with that steel chair back in June, he instantly became one of the most hated heels on the roster. He was responsible for the break-up of one of the hottest babyface groups in recent years and so the newest member of the Authority was an immediate magnet for "you sold out" chants from the WWE Universe. In recent weeks, though, his persona has lost some of its luster without the Authority in power. Rollins needs the help of someone in control to facilitate his cowardly antics. He now has his wish in terms of the Authority's return, but he may still need a leg up in order to become the WWE's top heel. That's where Heyman comes in. As the advocate for WWE Champion Brock Lesnar, Heyman has been getting under the skin of WWE fans for the entire year. His client snapped the Undertaker's undefeated streak at WrestleMania and decimated John Cena in a one-sided main event bout at SummerSlam. This is not a man who is going to align with anyone other than a top heel. By association, that's what Seth Rollins is.
