Dave talked about this on Observer radio today.

Basically the only way this will change is if another babyface emerges who Vince likes more than Reigns, but that prob won't happen because they won't elevate anyone to that spot as long as Reigns is a face. He said they might have been planning to to turn him heel when Balor debuted and won the title, but then he got hurt so they had to scrap it.

He said WWE has built a business model where it basically doesn't matter who's on top at the moment as long as attendance and stuff is doing OK. Said Reigns isn't a huge draw, but he sells a lot of merch, and the house shows he headlines usually do OK, and Vince has convinced himself that ratings don't matter anymore, so Vince doesn't feel a need to move away from him :yeshrug:

@GMoneyMafia This what I was talking about. Its not the fact that its Roman, its the fact no matter what anyone else does over the next year it won't matter because this is what they want.

The thing is, I don't really care. I'm sure Lex Luger probably had some redeeming qualities. His push was still poison and I would desperately want him off my screen. I hope Joe A'noai does his thing, but as a viewer I'm not gonna rationalize it that way when it has put a damper on the product for going on 4 years now.

It's not 1982.. Brock can win the title this year, lose it any time in the next few months, and win it byke at the Rumble in time to c the champ at WM next year. Or Brock loses the belt, and wins the Rumble and faces Reigns at WM datway
Other than to a chicken shyt heel, I just don't see Brock losing to anyone if Vince's plan is for Roman to dethrone him.


Unless they invoke the 30 day championship defense rule and strip Brock of the title :ehh:

I think it's kind of a self fulfilling prophecy, when you push him as one of the only important guys on the roster, obviously kids are gonna buy his shyt even if its trash just because they think hes one of the only big stars (who tf would be caught dead wearing a ROMAN EMPIRE shirt?)

I truly do believe they only plan for Mania and everything else the rest of the year is just winged besides the Rumble.

Well I will say this.......at least it's not another cac being pushed as the top guy
:manny:

According to TLR rules his white mother makes him white too but I get your point.
