5 Reasons why Roman Reigns should win at Money In The Bank
After a poor reception of the decision to have Roman Reigns win the Royal Rumble and main event WrestleMania, one would think that WWE would be gambling yet again should they allow Roman Reigns to stand tall atop the ladder and grasp the Money In The Bank briefcase on June 14, 2015 at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio. However, all things considered, Reigns looks to be the right man to win the match.
5. WWE has to gamble with Reigns
Although the one preferred to win in these situations is always a heel, sometimes, babyfaces are entitled to a victory, evident with John Cena and Daniel Bryan. That being said, there is often a heel turn associated with the cash-in, such as Bryan himself and also Randy Orton in 2013.
Face characters aren’t the kind that try to pounce upon when the enemy is weak and Reigns, as illustrated on Raw last Monday, is quite the opposite. So, one would have to consider a Reigns heel turn on the horizon, which is another gamble for the WWE. However, one cannot help but note that anything involving Roman Reigns now is a hit-or-miss scenario, because the internet especially has been highly critical of the Samoan Superman ever since The Shield split up just over a year ago.
4. Nobody else in the match really has a reason to win
The other contestants in this match have no real reason to win it which gives us fans another reason to criticise WWE and it’s booking decisions. Orton has been champion numerous times, Ziggler has made it close to the top only to be let down, Kane (spoiler from SmackDown) has no reason to even be in this match, and Kingston is in the mix only so that there could be a few big spots worked off him.
The only slightly worthy competitors, other than Reigns, are Sheamus, who would benefit from a heel run with the gold, and Neville, who is far too early in his career to be winning anything this big. Roman Reigns seems like the right person to win.
