WWE: 6 Reasons Why Seth Rollins Shouldn't Have Turned Heel
5. Rollins Is Better As A Babyface
When you looked at the three members of The Shield, it seemed obvious to most fans that Dean Ambrose was the natural heel of the trio. For the first few months after the group debuted, it felt like he was the leader. He received most of the promo time, and he was the one holding singles gold. In the past hes been compared to Roddy Piper in that he just has a way of being a bit crazy, and able to get under your skin. If The Shield had to break up so soon, it should have been Ambrose who was turned. While Roman Reigns joining Evolution would have been a mistake due to his rising popularity, turning Rollins was also an odd choice. Hes come a long way on the microphone since his debut, but hes still pretty average at best. His promos usually consist of just yelling a lot without much swagger. He also seems to get lost at times, and hasnt developed a captivating persona. Besides that, hes farther away from a corporate type than Ambrose. Hes got the beard and the multi-colored hair which is a bit of an eccentric look. Hasn't The Authority constantly been belittling Daniel Bryan over his appearance? If nothing else, it would be nice if WWE kept things consistent.
As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at."
Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week.
