What are the odds of Reigns...

[Prince Bálor]

I feel like this should be a thread on its own... Inspired by the discussion that was started here: http://wweforums.net/threads/rock-vlogs-on-the-rumble.41570/

- So...

What are the odds of Reigns not winning the title from Brock, though? I don't think anyone's booked to defeat Lesnar, at this point. Not even Cena/Bryan/Orton, let alone Reigns who isn't as 'credible' as those three superstars. And this isn't a knock on Reigns, it's actually on them booking Lesnar like a baddest mofo on God's green earth and beyond.

Assuming Lesnar is leaving after post-WM Raw episode, which is his final work date, if I'm not mistaken... Then, I wouldn't be surprised if Reigns tried his best, but still couldn't defeat the one behind twenty one and one. He'd still take a piece of Brock with him, though, just like he said in that interview on Raw... Then, let's assume there'd be a 'screwjob' on Heyman's part and he'd actually screw Lesnar after the match, providing an opportunity for Rollins to (successfully) cash in. By the way, they teased Rollins/Heyman working together in the near future like 2 weeks ago on SmackDown.

I could see Lesnar beating Reigns if he still ends up getting more dates on his contract, but if he holds the title for probably until WM32, he'll look way too strong IMO; he'll have to beat most of the top faces along the way but then again, it gives Reigns another year to beat the top heels to get his redemption. And hopefully a Royal Rumble where Reigns isn't in the last 3 with The fucking Big Show and Corporate Kane.

I worry about the state of Rollins and his briefcase. At least if Brock retained (which I give about a 1% chance of happening, even if Lesnar did re-sign), Rollins could cash in on him now that he'd be in a withered and battered state, and from there he could get a semi-long title reign that lasted until at least Summerslam (if not longer) before dropping it to Reigns or whoever. But if Reigns walks out with the gold, then you're looking at a one-month title reign at most if Rollins cashes in successfully. If this were the old days where Backlash was still the April PPV, then Seth could get himself counted out or disqualified in the rematch and walk away with the title, but with Extreme Rules as the first post-WM PPV now, the only way for Rollins to retain is on a pinfall or submission, and there ain't no way Rollins is getting a dirty victory like that over Reigns just one month after becoming The Conqueror Of The 1 In 21-1.

True, true. I could see them doing a triple threat or two to prolong Rollins' title reign so he can pin someone not called Reigns.

 

[Gav back in the championship]

Id like to see brock retain vs reigns with reigns pushing him to his limits then id have rollins come out and cash in on lesnar and ultimately winning The title

 

[edge4ever]

Reigns is not losing this match....I mean i'll make a bet on that. They're pushing this guy to obviously be the next Cena and if that's going to happen, having him beat Brock is the best way to do it.

I don't feel that they'd have him win the Rumble...move up as quickly as they have....just to have him fail to Brock...that would make him look so weak in 2015 no matter what he did after that. I know Brock is supposed to be unstoppable.... but something has got to give and I have a feeling that Roman is going to be his Kryptonite. It may take numerous Superman punches and like 5 spears.....but he's winning it man lol

The odds of Reigns losing are quite, quite lol imo. He's been booked the strongest out of the full timers for a reason.

 

[Snowman1]

Slim to none, although as Gav the Chav pointed out, a competitive loss will help Reigns much more than an outright win as mentioned before.

Now it's "much much much much much more" after the Royal Fumble

Well, we grill them for lack of continuity, I guess they should end this one, then. :dawg:
Although I wouldn't blame them if they did it on Raw

 

[Prince Bálor]

Should end on Raw next week.

Then book Reigns against someone not so boring as Show. And no, not Kane :dawg:
