I didn't mean now.
That's the role he's slotted into. And he has the potential to do it. That doesn't mean he will, just like I doubt that Rollins reaches the heights of Ric Flair's career. But that's the type of character he's being slotted into at this point. Reigns is the big, powerhouse, handsome, strong guy who has decent mic skills and a mainly power moveset but will get over more on charisma than on in-ring ability. That's all I was getting at.

It may be the role he's slotted into, but I do not think he has the potential to do it. He personally doesn't scream 'look at me' like it should. He's laid back, but laid back doesn't translate into wrestling stardom.
If he did reach Rock's level, that would be fantastic. It would mean a boom period and who wouldn't want that?
But whether it was Austin, Savage, Hogan, Rock, Sting or John Cena they were all extroverts.... they were guys who put a little bit of an extra mustard on the hot dog, so to speak
If fans could accept it, then fine. I just don't see him doing the traditional autograph signings, radio interviews, tv interviews, charities and award shows the 'E' requires from this current era. But, then again, that could all change....
