5 reasons why Reigns should defeat Bryan and headline Wrestlemania

After a controversial response to the Royal Rumble match, Roman Reigns must now defend his main event spot against fan favourite Daniel Bryan at the inaugural Fastlane PPV. The repercussions of this match are huge as it determines who will face Brock Lesnar for the WWE championship in the headliner at the grandest stage of them all. Some fans may be unhappy, but the only logical option now is to have Reigns defeat Bryan and keep his championship opportunity. Lets take a look at five reasons why Reigns must go over in their Fastlane bout.

#5 Give Reigns a chance

If Bryan wins at Fastlane, Reigns is left without an obvious feud to step right into. He goes from earning a main event spot to struggling to find a place on the mania card. Whether you like him or not, he has won the rumble match and now he at least deserves a chance to prove why he belongs in the main event.

Many have questioned whether Reigns is ready, including myself, but I now believe we need to give him the opportunity he has earned to prove us wrong. A fairly strong showing on the snowstorm Raw after the rumble showed that Reigns may just have what it takes to make a main event feud with Lesnar work. With Paul Heyman carrying the promo work and Lesnar/Reigns combined ability, they may be able to pull off an excellent bout that is indeed main event calibre.

Regardless though, after winning the rumble, Roman Reigns still deserves a chance to prove he belongs.
