Backstage Update On The Shield - Roman Reigns Push?

[Mad Good Dro]

When word spread that Roman Reigns had caught the attention of Triple H, the belief was that he was going to be built up as a future main event performer. WWE has definitely taken that approach. They've protected him on the microphone by limiting the amount of things that he has to say. They're also building him up as a formidable opponent, as evident by the fact that he was given a pinfall victory over John Cena at Monday Night RAW this week.

In correlation, while WWE is also high on Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose is rapidly standing out from his teammates. While Seth Rollins is allowed some lines, Ambrose is given the most important points of the promo. As noted, Roman Reigns is relegated to quick lines. WWE also trusts Ambrose more in the ring. They used him last week against the Undertaker, and they're having him face Kane at the next Smackdown.

I actually like Rollins the most out of these 3 outstanding newcomers.
Back in the day on NXT, I hated the shyt out of his headbanging, seizure-having babyface ass, but now he's on a whole different level.
His mean voice just cracks me up every fukking time and the spots he does and bumps he takes are easily outshining the other 2 and whatever opponent he faces.

Rollins really is the best outta the 3. Dude always knows how to get himself over plus he's really stepped his promo game up to where Ambrose doesn't completely overshadow him. But Dean's pretty damn good too.

Of course they're gonna end up pushing Reigns the most and continue the cycle of playing it safe and sabotaging their product for whatever reason.

roman is the most green out of the threee so i hope they dont push him too early because of his 'look'

but for me if i had to ran them

[Brad Piff]

push all 3 to the moon

 

[Kang Deezy]

Rollins is my fav

 

[Ill Lou Malnati]

push all 3 to the moon

Exactly. They don't need to book it so that there's only one breakout singles star from the group. Make THREE of them. Tie a rocket to all three of their asses and let them light up the sky.

i hope they stay away from the regular formula of dismantling the team by beefing with each other

just have em eventually go their separate ways

Never break them up

They can do what the F version of the nWo couldn't do

 

[lunchmeat]

I actually have to stop and think about with one is Rollins and which one is Reigns

Yeah they'll do it for a couple of months and that angle will get real hot and people will ask if wrestling's back then they'll get thwarted by the good guys or pushed to the background a little because they got too good.

See: Psycho Orton, Nexus Wade Barrett, Reality Era CM Punk, YES! Takeover Daniel Bryan.

 

[Fellatio]

They'll get fed to cornball

All 3 will have taken a pinfall to Cena by the Survivor Series

Been saying it from jump Roman is gonna be the superstar barring any unforeseen fukk ups. He's got the look, intensity and the Samoan heritage. They'll all be successful in some way but I'm still yet to be impressed by Ambrose, and Rollins IMO has gotten a lot better.
