WWE's Singles Title-Holders In 2016 - Ranked Worst To Best
7. Roman Reigns (2x WWE Champion, US Champion)
If you haven't thrown up in your mouth at seeing Reigns this high in the list, you too will remember that Reigns as WWE Champion provided an immense obstacle for his challengers to overcome, in turn creating compelling viewing.
Sure WWE would have loved it if we had cheered him as champion, but they were smart enough to pair him with guys (Styles and Rollins) we hugely wanted to succeed and had their success come at the expense of a more lowly performer it wouldn't have been as special. I sure as hell was on the edge of my seat for the months post-Mania to see who might dethrone The Big Dog.
I will concede that Reigns has essentially wiped his Samoan ass with the US Title that Rusev so gallantly defended, but an interesting angle concerning one of the younger Raw stars might yet come of it.
