I don't get why people jizz a load in their pants when Brock Lesnar vs Daniel Bryan comes up.
It's never happened. It's David vs Goliath. Two great in ring competitors.
Two wrestling wives. One has the full company backing him, the other does not.

Good to see that in retrospect this would've ruined the best match of the year and one of the greatest wrestling moments I've seen, with Cena being squashed. You know, after Lesnar won the belt and I was looking at this beast who broke the Streak and just destroyed Cena, I don't think anyone beating him will be believable. I don't see Reigns anywhere near the superstardom/beast level of Brock, and it's not like they've done anything wrong with him. They still have some months to change that, but hey, Brock is awesome.

If you read my post, I said Reigns won't be the star 'everyone is hoping he will be'.
Will is being used in a future tense.
so you think he's popular now and will just plummet for no reason?

I just believe he's very bland. Give him 52 RAW's a years and see how well he's recepted.
He reminds me of Diesel a bit before he became Kevin Nash.
WIth WWE being so corporate, it wouldn't shock me to see them feed him lines and actions that counter his rise to the top.

Diesel? The difference between Diesel and Reigns is Reigns is actually talented and not being pushed because he's 6'11 and in with the right people.

You missed my point. It isn't the physical, its the personality and how they are presented on television.

well how would you present Reigns?.....
I would cater my mission statement to his strong points.
I create scenarios where his spear and his 'Superman Punch' gave RAW its sizzle.
I would book him much like Goldberg for as long as I could. I'd have him chase the title more often than not.
I'd allow his dark side to show a bit during the valleys in his career. Instead of smiling after a loss, he would wreak havoc.
He'd be butthurt after a loss and be conflicted over whether or not to attack his allies or peaceful.
His frustrations and his intensity would placed high priority over any mic work he did.

If heel turns are necessary, the smaller wrestlers would be great control variables for the methodologies in how his heel runs would be booked.
