From @C17Swampy: Am I crazy for thinking Seth Rollins is a more "complete" package than Roman Reigns?
You're not crazy for thinking that at all. If you look at them in terms of their overall talent right now I would say Rollins is better. No question about it, really. Rollins has been wrestling longer, is one of the best in-ring performers in WWE already and will hopefully develop into a top guy. However, we all know that WWE likes the bigger guys. That's what Reigns is. What Reigns has is a lot of potential. It's like watching sports and seeing teams drafting young guys based on potential. You know what they are right now, but you're trying to project what they might be in three or four years. Think of Reigns like a Brock Lesnar in the early 2000s or Randy Orton in the same period. Another example is his distant cousin The Rock in 1996 when they threw him out there, people booed the hell out of the guy and within three years he was headlining a WrestleMania. With Reigns, that's the kind of thing they're hoping for. That's not to say he'll talk like The Rock because that's not happening, but in terms of where WWE wants him to be they are looking at Reigns like they did with The Rock. It's up to Reigns to make it work when he gets the chance. Reigns will get the biggest push out of the three Shield guys likely within the next year. That doesn't mean he's better all around than Rollins or even Ambrose. They all bring something to the table. It's just that Rollins will likely take longer to get to the top because as I said earlier, WWE will always prefer the bigger guys.
