“I’m so proud of where he is. The night of Survivor Series [in November], I went up to Roman and Jey and said, ‘This is the most compelling story that we’ve done in a while.’ And where he’s been able to take it, it’s so good. It’s not forced. Roman is hitting on all cylinders,”

“I think he’s a great heel—coldhearted, calculated. There is a compelling backstory and you still feel the tension when Roman appears. Like I said, I’m really proud of him. I wish I had the gas in the tank to work a program with him now. It would definitely be something special.”

Reigns is currently in the middle of arguably his best WWE run as the Tribal Chief. Fans have long demanded a Reigns heel turn. However, to say he has exceeded expections would be an understatement. Many have showered him with praises and called him the best thing about current WWE and it doesn’t look like the praises will stop anytime soon.
