5. Roman Reigns (Believe In A Positive Future)
Right now, Roman Reigns is being groomed as the future of World Wrestling Entertainment. The promotion's top brass desperately want Reigns to be a success story, because they believe he has all the tools to carry them as the main babyface for years. The main trouble with that is convincing the core audience of the same thing. A lot of fans are under the impression that every enthusiast is sketchy on Roman's ability to lead. Examining things further, that's not the case. Looking at WWE's social media platforms reveals the interesting notion that there are even those frustrated Reigns hasn't yet been crowned WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Those people are impatient for a future they trust will be positive. That previous sentence exactly sums up WWE's feelings towards Roman Reigns. Top management feel that the guy is the ideal candidate to ensure a fruitful future. Down the line, there are hopes that the man will draw big television ratings, and people will line up to see killer heels try and tear him down. Fans who favour Reigns love the idea of that, because they want WWE to be so straightforward.
