How I would book the WWE World Heavyweight Championship picture from now to WM33

Terry Gyimah

Championship Contender
If anything how I would book the WWE World Heavyweight Championship from now to WrestleMania 33 in terms of the title picture:


(May PPV) Payback- Roman Reigns (c) vs AJ Styles= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

I would have Reigns win the title but by doing it in a controversial manner by cheating of course. Therefore it would basically build up Roman's arrogance as a cocky, self-absorbed champion since he would say he is not a bad guy he is not a good guy he is the guy and he would basically have to resort to cheating just to hold on to his title which would just add to the attitude change. Reigns would basically still give that mantra of not being a bad guy but that he still had to do what he had to do to come out on top and for that he makes no apologies.


(May PPV) Extreme Rules- Roman Reigns (c) vs Triple H= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

This is where I would bring Triple H back to WWE TV with him demanding his one on one rematch for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and Triple H he is technically still entitled to a rematch for the title that Triple H in his mind lost at WrestleMania 32 to Roman Reigns. The rivalry would essentially continue but the fans of course would be more behind Triple H than ever especially considering Roman's new attitude and their match at Extreme Rules I would either make it a Last Man Standing Match or a Hell in A Cell Match. For me preferably their match would be decided in a Last Man Standing Match and considering their rivalry it only makes sense. Reigns would basically be solidified as "The Guy" by not only beating Triple H in a Last Man Standing Match but by beating Triple H not once but twice.


(June PPV)- Money in the Bank- Roman Reigns (c) vs Seth Rollins= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

This is where I would have Rollins make his triumphant return back from injury and of course Rollins would demand his rematch for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, a title that he never even lost. Reigns being the WWE World Heavyweight Champion he would tell Rollins that he has his match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Reigns then tells Rollins he will beat him just like he did Triple H not once but twice but that he will also beat Rollins just like AJ Styles. Reigns then tells Rollins that as soon as he beats him he will put him back on the shelf right where Reigns in his mind feels like Rollins belongs. Dean Ambrose for me he would win the Money in the Bank briefcase at the PPV but then Reigns would beat Rollins controversially by use of a steel chair coming into play but also putting his feet on the ropes for leverage to pin Rollins without the referee seeing. Reigns' heel turn would essentially be complete right here.


(July PPV)- Battleground- Roman Reigns (c) vs Seth Rollins II= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

The rematch would happen right here at this PPV because Rollins of course would want another match considering the way Reigns won back at Money in the Bank. The fans would be more behind Seth Rollins than they ever were before here and Reigns would of course turn Rollins down refusing. The Authority would get involved basically giving Rollins his match against Reigns because they would want the title off of Reigns at any cost but deep down they really would side with Roman basically turning on Rollins with Triple H costing Rollins the title. Reigns would of course go over basically aligning himself with The Authority.


(August PPV)- SummerSlam- Roman Reigns (c) vs John Cena= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Reigns

Cena would end up becoming the new #1 Contender for Reigns' title by basically stepping up. Cena of course wants to end Reigns' title reign because not only does he want to be champion again but that he wants to be the one to finally shut Reigns up basically accusing him of being a hypocrite by aligning himself with The Authority turning his back on the WWE Universe when he said he would never sell out. Reigns then basically would say that he is not the bad guy he is not the good guy he is the guy and that he wants to be the guy to beat the guy who runs the place and that the WWE Universe turned their backs on him way back when in 2015 as soon as he won the Royal Rumble Match. Reigns could go on a tirade saying how he tried being the nice guy playing up to the fans and it got him nowhere and that he is all about himself now and no one else but that he is not a member of The Authority but that he finally sees things from their POV. Reigns would basically win this match but barely after a long and hard fought match but then cue Ambrose with his Money in the Bank briefcase teasing a cash-in as his music plays and he comes out at the end of the show with briefcase in hand taunting Reigns. The 2 former brothers face off in a staredown to end SummerSlam.


(September PPV)- Night of Champions- Roman Reigns (c) vs Antonio Cesaro= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

Cesaro would become #1 Contender by winning a 20-man Over the Top Rope Battle Royal to become #1 Contender by last eliminating Rollins. Cesaro the wild card no one expected him to be here much less be "the guy" to challenge Reigns for the title but that since he is that he is going to do us all a favor and save us from Reigns' reign of terror. Reigns then basically calls Cesaro a pretender and that he will basically crush Cesaro's hopes and dreams basically doing the same to him that he has done to all the others before him and that no one has or ever will beat him for his WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Reigns would go over again but he would do it cleanly this time by beating Cesaro cleanly right in the middle of the ring. Reigns would somehow counter out of the Sharpshooter sending Cesaro flying and when he does Reigns goes into the corner and comes right out spearing the living daylights out of Cesaro.


(October PPV)- Hell in a Cell- Roman Reigns (c) vs Dean Ambrose= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

The 2 former brothers finally collide with one another but in Satan's structure inside the Devil's playground inside Hell in A Cell. Considering the build-up it would be perfect if you think about it and then there is always the option of Ambrose using his "Plan B" that being the Money in the Bank briefcase to cash in on Reigns in the event if Ambrose loses. The brutality that both men have that they both share this match would be as brutal as they come as far as Hell in a Cell is concerned and as for who goes over? Reigns would somehow go over because a mystery person would get involved in the match pretty much costing Ambrose the title but the mystery person would of course be a masked man. Reigns would watch this all happen and of course after the masked man gets involved Reigns crawls into the cover pinning Ambrose in a war of attrition. But we are left with the question of who is the masked man?


(November PPV)- Survivor Series- Roman Reigns (c) vs Brock Lesnar w/Paul Heyman= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

The masked man in the build-up would be revealed to be Samoa Joe former TNA standout NXT stalwart finally called up to the main roster with Joe's first feud being Ambrose...Reigns would basically go on and on about how he is practically a One Man Army until he is interrupted by Heyman who basically says that until he beats this man he is nothing his entire championship reign means nothing until...then Lesnar's music hits and Lesnar comes out. Lesnar basically competes in his first Survivor Series PPV since Survivor Series 2003 but also could Lesnar be the man who finally ends Reigns' title reign? WrestleMania 31 rematch right here it basically ends in Reigns beating Lesnar but just barely because Lesnar in this match would suplex the hell out of Reigns basically beating the holy hell out of him the entire match but somehow winning by resorting to a low blow and an exposed turnbuckle in the match. Post-match Lesnar would basically beat the hell out of Reigns taking him to Suplex City some more and cue Ambrose's cash-in attempted cash-in because Joe would stop him yet again from cashing in.


(December PPV)- TLC- Roman Reigns (c) vs Randy Orton= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

Orton after a long lay-off that I would have him take after SummerSlam basically returns again but here at Tables, Ladders and Chairs to be the one to face Reigns but as for what kind of match these 2 will have? A Tables, Ladders and Chairs Match and both men have experience in this match which of course would go on last but Orton would come close to winning the title but Reigns would somehow win this match going over Orton cleanly.


(January 2017 PPV)- Royal Rumble- Roman Reigns (c) vs Bray Wyatt= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

I would have Bray Wyatt finally get his shot at the WWE World Heavyweight Championship...a 2015 rivalry renewed right here but role reversal with Wyatt as a babyface and Reigns as the heel. Wyatt he would basically cut promos on Reigns calling him out for the hypocrite he is but also for saying that he has become everything that he said he hated but that all of it to become a success will all be for naught especially when he knocks him off that pedestal. Wyatt would basically play mind games with Reigns in the build-up with the lights going out after the Wyatt signature goes off in the build-up but also Wyatt attacking Reigns in the build-up and Reigns also attacking Wyatt in the build-up. This rivalry would basically get personal again really fast but who goes over? Reigns would but Wyatt would come so close within a hair but someone would get involved in this match costing Wyatt the title but who would it be? It would be Finn Balor but as for who would win the 2017 Royal Rumble Match? Rollins would win it basically eliminating Mr. Money in the Bank Dean Ambrose last because they would be in the final 2


(February 2017 PPV)- Fastlane= Roman Reigns (c) vs John Cena vs Randy Orton vs AJ Styles vs Samoa Joe vs Kane (Elimination Chamber Match)= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion

(Cash in)- Dean Ambrose vs Roman Reigns= Winner: New WWE World Heavyweight Champion Dean Ambrose

Reigns would have to be forced to defend his title against not 1 not 2 not 3 not 4 but 5 other guys in the Elimination Chamber...I would bring the Chamber Match back for Fastlane to determine who goes to Mania as the WWE World Heavyweight Champion but who goes over? Reigns would basically eliminating Cena last in the Chamber to retain his title but then cue Ambrose who comes out post-match to cash in on a weakened, vulnerable Reigns...no interruptions Ambrose is cashing in as he's doing it. Ambrose cashes in successfully on Reigns ending Reigns' near-year long title reign to become the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion ending Reigns' reign of terror to become champion for the first time. Rollins then comes out post-match after the cash-in to stare down with Ambrose the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion.


(WrestleMania 33)- Roman Reigns vs Dean Ambrose (c) vs Seth Rollins (2017 Royal Rumble Match winner)

Ambrose would be celebrating his title win of course and here you have Reigns to cut it short by saying he wants his rematch and he isn't going to go anywhere until he gets it but then cue Rollins to interrupt as he basically tells Reigns that unlike him he actually won the 2017 Royal Rumble Match so he has more of a right to be there than Reigns does seeing as how he lost the title. Reigns basically says that he is entitled to a rematch and that he has a rematch clause as Ambrose the WWE World Heavyweight Champion tells them that they are going to have to sort it out amongst themselves but that if he had it his way he would defend his title against the both of them. Cue The Shield Triple Threat Match as it finally happens. Ambrose defends his title against both Rollins and Reigns but who goes over? Rollins goes over to finally win back the title that he never lost by pinning Reigns which basically sets up Ambrose vs Rollins but both would be essentially babyfaces going at it.

That's actually a really good booking plan, but I'm going to assume now that Wrestlemania is finished, and guys like Cena, Orton and Rollins are prepping for their returns I don't see Reigns making it past Summerslam as the champ. Summerslam will most likely see Reigns lose the title against either Rollins or Cena.

Agree, I do think WWE will put Orton & Cena in the main event scene but don't see them holding the big strap. Cena could do his U.S open challenge again and what an awesome Summerslam match it would be if Nakamura challenged and won the title on his debut.
 
You did a pretty good job with the booking. I would have Roman Reigns drop the title to someone like Dean Ambrose between now and WrestleMania 33 as a breath of fresh air but only to have Reigns win it again and go in to WM as a cocky heel. I would definitely tie in Seth Rollins in the title picture and make it at Triple Threat match between Reigns, Ambrose, and Rollins for the title as the main event for WM33.

You would already have an epic multiple-year buildup with a long history between the three guys and the match would sell itself. You don't need Cena or Orton tainting that main event. Have them face off against some legend or something.
 
Survivor Series
*Kevin Owens VS John Cena
- Seeds are planted from KO's debut match plus Cena's 16th reign possibility writes itself. Have KO win and probably win the eventual feud too.

Hell in a Cell
Cesaro w/ LON VS *AJ Styles w/ Bulletproof (*Kevin Owens cashes in MITB)
- Good lengthy feud which is suppose to end here but sets up a final match between Bulletproof/League of Nations in a 4 VS 4 Survivor Series match. Owens to cash in MITB and walk out champ.

Night of Champions
Cesaro w/ LON VS AJ Styles w/ Bulletproof
- With AJ joining Finn, Gallows & Anderson. NOC will see the debut of the League of Nations new leader, Cesaro. Finn goes after Orton following Summerslam setting up a feud at NOC.

Summerslam
AJ Styles VS *Cesaro VS Randy Orton
- Cesaro to be the face that sets AJ's heel turn for an eventual "Bulletproof" angle.

Battleground
Roman Reigns VS *AJ Styles
- Styles winning with Rollins costing Reigns setting up a Summerslam match and a feud ending in HIAC.

Money in the Bank
*Roman Reigns VS AJ Styles VS Cesaro VS John Cena VS Randy Orton VS Sheamus
- Ladder match to cement Reigns as "The Guy", Cesaro coming close with Cena costing him.

Extreme Rules
*Roman Reigns VS AJ Styles
- Roman wins clean again.

Payback
*Roman Reigns VS AJ Styles
- Roman to win clean.
 
I havn't seen a report saying TLC, Royal Rumble & Fastlane will be scheduled than but of course WM33 is.

TLC
*Kevin Owens VS John Cena
- Owens to get back to back wins over Cena.

Royal Rumble
Kevin Owens VS *Roman Reigns
- Reigns to go over Owens with Ambrose winning the Rumble.

Fastlane
*Roman Reigns VS Kevin Owens
- Reigns wins by DQ setting KO on a rage that sets up a WM33 between him and HHH.

Wrestlemania 33
Roman Reigns VS Dean Ambrose VS Seth Rollins
- Rollins will stay aligned with HHH so there anticipated WM34 match happens but somehow manages to get a shot since he never lost the belt.
 
Your WWE Championship picture from Payback to WrestleMania 33 is actually perfect but if anything I basically set my championship picture off of the predicate that Roman would turn heel and basically go on a near-year long title reign which would not only cement him as "The Guy" but it would cement him as a top heel
 
WWE does the exact opposite of what fans want. I have accepted this fact a long time ago. The reality is Roman Reigns WILL and SHOULD hold the title until WM33. Give him the year long reign and let him bury every single face on the roster. Make him become the mega heel he can be. Disappoint the fans every month until mania when fans hate Roman so much we are begging for Cena to beat Roman. Cena Vs Roman WM33.

WWE hates us and will never give us Cena Vs Taker, so give us the next best thing... Another 100,000 people booing the main event.

Roman during his 1 year reign should bury AJ Styles, Dean Ambrose, Dolph Ziggler, Cesaro, Bray Wyatt, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn and heck, even Zack Ryder. Make Roman hated so much we would rather Big Slow NOT retire and him win the title. Make us beg for sheamus to take it off Roman. It would give us hope because sheamus did it once.

That is how I book the WWE title because the fans are going to keep watching anyway.
 
That's actually a really good booking plan, but I'm going to assume now that Wrestlemania is finished, and guys like Cena, Orton and Rollins are prepping for their returns I don't see Reigns making it past Summerslam as the champ. Summerslam will most likely see Reigns lose the title against either Rollins or Cena.

While I wouldn't be shocked by this, Reigns is the first champ in a while I could clearly see going a year (Punk kept getting by, but I never expected that reign to last as long as it did). Especially if the Shield Main Event is still in the picture.

I wouldn't be surprised if Ambrose's star power backstage took a massive hit post-Mania, and with Cesaro, Cena, Orton and Rollins coming back and AJ and Zayn doing really well, I wouldn't be surprised if Ambrose does a Ziggler and slides down the ladder.

Oh, but really good booking plan btw. I'm not keen on Cena - Reigns being a SummerSlam match, as I think that's a Mania match (especially if you keep them apart and build up the Reigns taking over Cena during Cena's injury absence). But really good booking structure.

I would love to see Ambrose or Cesaro finally get a chance to run with the title sooner than later, and it would be amazing to see Styles get a run with the title, that would be a hell of a swerve to see that happen, I just get the feeling they're going to go the safe route and stick it back on Cena. I'd much rather see Rollins do it, he had alot of moment going for him before he tore his knee up plus there's history there to build a storyline on.
 
This was very well thought out. I hope WWE doesn't go the CENA route and have Reigns become SUPER REIGNS. Reigns is at the top. Let him run with the title until SummerSlam. A year-long title Reign would just piss fans off. There's no way AJ is winning the title this soon. Vince is testing the waters with AJ to see if he can draw. The problem Vince has now is that he has returning established stars and upcoming stars. The roster is almost up to full strength which will hopefully lead to better storytelling by creative because WWE has the talent. It's just a matter of positioning that talent in the right stories.
 
If anything how I would book the WWE World Heavyweight Championship from now to WrestleMania 33 in terms of the title picture:


(May PPV) Payback- Roman Reigns (c) vs AJ Styles= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

I would have Reigns win the title but by doing it in a controversial manner by cheating of course. Therefore it would basically build up Roman's arrogance as a cocky, self-absorbed champion since he would say he is not a bad guy he is not a good guy he is the guy and he would basically have to resort to cheating just to hold on to his title which would just add to the attitude change. Reigns would basically still give that mantra of not being a bad guy but that he still had to do what he had to do to come out on top and for that he makes no apologies.


(May PPV) Extreme Rules- Roman Reigns (c) vs Triple H= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

This is where I would bring Triple H back to WWE TV with him demanding his one on one rematch for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and Triple H he is technically still entitled to a rematch for the title that Triple H in his mind lost at WrestleMania 32 to Roman Reigns. The rivalry would essentially continue but the fans of course would be more behind Triple H than ever especially considering Roman's new attitude and their match at Extreme Rules I would either make it a Last Man Standing Match or a Hell in A Cell Match. For me preferably their match would be decided in a Last Man Standing Match and considering their rivalry it only makes sense. Reigns would basically be solidified as "The Guy" by not only beating Triple H in a Last Man Standing Match but by beating Triple H not once but twice.


(June PPV)- Money in the Bank- Roman Reigns (c) vs Seth Rollins= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

This is where I would have Rollins make his triumphant return back from injury and of course Rollins would demand his rematch for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, a title that he never even lost. Reigns being the WWE World Heavyweight Champion he would tell Rollins that he has his match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Reigns then tells Rollins he will beat him just like he did Triple H not once but twice but that he will also beat Rollins just like AJ Styles. Reigns then tells Rollins that as soon as he beats him he will put him back on the shelf right where Reigns in his mind feels like Rollins belongs. Dean Ambrose for me he would win the Money in the Bank briefcase at the PPV but then Reigns would beat Rollins controversially by use of a steel chair coming into play but also putting his feet on the ropes for leverage to pin Rollins without the referee seeing. Reigns' heel turn would essentially be complete right here.


(July PPV)- Battleground- Roman Reigns (c) vs Seth Rollins II= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

The rematch would happen right here at this PPV because Rollins of course would want another match considering the way Reigns won back at Money in the Bank. The fans would be more behind Seth Rollins than they ever were before here and Reigns would of course turn Rollins down refusing. The Authority would get involved basically giving Rollins his match against Reigns because they would want the title off of Reigns at any cost but deep down they really would side with Roman basically turning on Rollins with Triple H costing Rollins the title. Reigns would of course go over basically aligning himself with The Authority.


(August PPV)- SummerSlam- Roman Reigns (c) vs John Cena= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Reigns

Cena would end up becoming the new #1 Contender for Reigns' title by basically stepping up. Cena of course wants to end Reigns' title reign because not only does he want to be champion again but that he wants to be the one to finally shut Reigns up basically accusing him of being a hypocrite by aligning himself with The Authority turning his back on the WWE Universe when he said he would never sell out. Reigns then basically would say that he is not the bad guy he is not the good guy he is the guy and that he wants to be the guy to beat the guy who runs the place and that the WWE Universe turned their backs on him way back when in 2015 as soon as he won the Royal Rumble Match. Reigns could go on a tirade saying how he tried being the nice guy playing up to the fans and it got him nowhere and that he is all about himself now and no one else but that he is not a member of The Authority but that he finally sees things from their POV. Reigns would basically win this match but barely after a long and hard fought match but then cue Ambrose with his Money in the Bank briefcase teasing a cash-in as his music plays and he comes out at the end of the show with briefcase in hand taunting Reigns. The 2 former brothers face off in a staredown to end SummerSlam.


(September PPV)- Night of Champions- Roman Reigns (c) vs Antonio Cesaro= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

Cesaro would become #1 Contender by winning a 20-man Over the Top Rope Battle Royal to become #1 Contender by last eliminating Rollins. Cesaro the wild card no one expected him to be here much less be "the guy" to challenge Reigns for the title but that since he is that he is going to do us all a favor and save us from Reigns' reign of terror. Reigns then basically calls Cesaro a pretender and that he will basically crush Cesaro's hopes and dreams basically doing the same to him that he has done to all the others before him and that no one has or ever will beat him for his WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Reigns would go over again but he would do it cleanly this time by beating Cesaro cleanly right in the middle of the ring. Reigns would somehow counter out of the Sharpshooter sending Cesaro flying and when he does Reigns goes into the corner and comes right out spearing the living daylights out of Cesaro.


(October PPV)- Hell in a Cell- Roman Reigns (c) vs Dean Ambrose= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

The 2 former brothers finally collide with one another but in Satan's structure inside the Devil's playground inside Hell in A Cell. Considering the build-up it would be perfect if you think about it and then there is always the option of Ambrose using his "Plan B" that being the Money in the Bank briefcase to cash in on Reigns in the event if Ambrose loses. The brutality that both men have that they both share this match would be as brutal as they come as far as Hell in a Cell is concerned and as for who goes over? Reigns would somehow go over because a mystery person would get involved in the match pretty much costing Ambrose the title but the mystery person would of course be a masked man. Reigns would watch this all happen and of course after the masked man gets involved Reigns crawls into the cover pinning Ambrose in a war of attrition. But we are left with the question of who is the masked man?


(November PPV)- Survivor Series- Roman Reigns (c) vs Brock Lesnar w/Paul Heyman= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

The masked man in the build-up would be revealed to be Samoa Joe former TNA standout NXT stalwart finally called up to the main roster with Joe's first feud being Ambrose...Reigns would basically go on and on about how he is practically a One Man Army until he is interrupted by Heyman who basically says that until he beats this man he is nothing his entire championship reign means nothing until...then Lesnar's music hits and Lesnar comes out. Lesnar basically competes in his first Survivor Series PPV since Survivor Series 2003 but also could Lesnar be the man who finally ends Reigns' title reign? WrestleMania 31 rematch right here it basically ends in Reigns beating Lesnar but just barely because Lesnar in this match would suplex the hell out of Reigns basically beating the holy hell out of him the entire match but somehow winning by resorting to a low blow and an exposed turnbuckle in the match. Post-match Lesnar would basically beat the hell out of Reigns taking him to Suplex City some more and cue Ambrose's cash-in attempted cash-in because Joe would stop him yet again from cashing in.


(December PPV)- TLC- Roman Reigns (c) vs Randy Orton= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

Orton after a long lay-off that I would have him take after SummerSlam basically returns again but here at Tables, Ladders and Chairs to be the one to face Reigns but as for what kind of match these 2 will have? A Tables, Ladders and Chairs Match and both men have experience in this match which of course would go on last but Orton would come close to winning the title but Reigns would somehow win this match going over Orton cleanly.


(January 2017 PPV)- Royal Rumble- Roman Reigns (c) vs Bray Wyatt= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

I would have Bray Wyatt finally get his shot at the WWE World Heavyweight Championship...a 2015 rivalry renewed right here but role reversal with Wyatt as a babyface and Reigns as the heel. Wyatt he would basically cut promos on Reigns calling him out for the hypocrite he is but also for saying that he has become everything that he said he hated but that all of it to become a success will all be for naught especially when he knocks him off that pedestal. Wyatt would basically play mind games with Reigns in the build-up with the lights going out after the Wyatt signature goes off in the build-up but also Wyatt attacking Reigns in the build-up and Reigns also attacking Wyatt in the build-up. This rivalry would basically get personal again really fast but who goes over? Reigns would but Wyatt would come so close within a hair but someone would get involved in this match costing Wyatt the title but who would it be? It would be Finn Balor but as for who would win the 2017 Royal Rumble Match? Rollins would win it basically eliminating Mr. Money in the Bank Dean Ambrose last because they would be in the final 2


(February 2017 PPV)- Fastlane= Roman Reigns (c) vs John Cena vs Randy Orton vs AJ Styles vs Samoa Joe vs Kane (Elimination Chamber Match)= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion

(Cash in)- Dean Ambrose vs Roman Reigns= Winner: New WWE World Heavyweight Champion Dean Ambrose

Reigns would have to be forced to defend his title against not 1 not 2 not 3 not 4 but 5 other guys in the Elimination Chamber...I would bring the Chamber Match back for Fastlane to determine who goes to Mania as the WWE World Heavyweight Champion but who goes over? Reigns would basically eliminating Cena last in the Chamber to retain his title but then cue Ambrose who comes out post-match to cash in on a weakened, vulnerable Reigns...no interruptions Ambrose is cashing in as he's doing it. Ambrose cashes in successfully on Reigns ending Reigns' near-year long title reign to become the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion ending Reigns' reign of terror to become champion for the first time. Rollins then comes out post-match after the cash-in to stare down with Ambrose the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion.


(WrestleMania 33)- Roman Reigns vs Dean Ambrose (c) vs Seth Rollins (2017 Royal Rumble Match winner)

Ambrose would be celebrating his title win of course and here you have Reigns to cut it short by saying he wants his rematch and he isn't going to go anywhere until he gets it but then cue Rollins to interrupt as he basically tells Reigns that unlike him he actually won the 2017 Royal Rumble Match so he has more of a right to be there than Reigns does seeing as how he lost the title. Reigns basically says that he is entitled to a rematch and that he has a rematch clause as Ambrose the WWE World Heavyweight Champion tells them that they are going to have to sort it out amongst themselves but that if he had it his way he would defend his title against the both of them. Cue The Shield Triple Threat Match as it finally happens. Ambrose defends his title against both Rollins and Reigns but who goes over? Rollins goes over to finally win back the title that he never lost by pinning Reigns which basically sets up Ambrose vs Rollins but both would be essentially babyfaces going at it.

Good post. I just don't think he'll face that many opponents in 2016 since WWE typically does a best of 3.

We may AJ vs. Reigns for Payback, Extreme Rules and MITB. Then get Seth at Battleground, HHH screws Seth. Depending on the direction they go for WM 33, we may get Cena/Reigns or Brock/Reigns at Summerslam & NoC. If it's Cena/Reigns, we may get Cena/Reigns in a HIAC. However, with WWE making HIAC a big deal last year we may get HHH/Reigns in a HIAC match HIAC. Reigns may not defend his title at Survivor Series, may be in a Survivor Series match. TLC - he could face Ambrose.
 
Absolutely sick of Reigns, he is stale and pushed down our throats. Hopefully John Cena returns and wins the gold and holds on to it all the way to Wrestlemania 33 where he defends in the main event against Randy Orton.
 
If anything how I would book the WWE World Heavyweight Championship from now to WrestleMania 33 in terms of the title picture:


(May PPV) Payback- Roman Reigns (c) vs AJ Styles= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

I would have Reigns win the title but by doing it in a controversial manner by cheating of course. Therefore it would basically build up Roman's arrogance as a cocky, self-absorbed champion since he would say he is not a bad guy he is not a good guy he is the guy and he would basically have to resort to cheating just to hold on to his title which would just add to the attitude change. Reigns would basically still give that mantra of not being a bad guy but that he still had to do what he had to do to come out on top and for that he makes no apologies.


(May PPV) Extreme Rules- Roman Reigns (c) vs Triple H= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

This is where I would bring Triple H back to WWE TV with him demanding his one on one rematch for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and Triple H he is technically still entitled to a rematch for the title that Triple H in his mind lost at WrestleMania 32 to Roman Reigns. The rivalry would essentially continue but the fans of course would be more behind Triple H than ever especially considering Roman's new attitude and their match at Extreme Rules I would either make it a Last Man Standing Match or a Hell in A Cell Match. For me preferably their match would be decided in a Last Man Standing Match and considering their rivalry it only makes sense. Reigns would basically be solidified as "The Guy" by not only beating Triple H in a Last Man Standing Match but by beating Triple H not once but twice.


(June PPV)- Money in the Bank- Roman Reigns (c) vs Seth Rollins= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

This is where I would have Rollins make his triumphant return back from injury and of course Rollins would demand his rematch for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, a title that he never even lost. Reigns being the WWE World Heavyweight Champion he would tell Rollins that he has his match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Reigns then tells Rollins he will beat him just like he did Triple H not once but twice but that he will also beat Rollins just like AJ Styles. Reigns then tells Rollins that as soon as he beats him he will put him back on the shelf right where Reigns in his mind feels like Rollins belongs. Dean Ambrose for me he would win the Money in the Bank briefcase at the PPV but then Reigns would beat Rollins controversially by use of a steel chair coming into play but also putting his feet on the ropes for leverage to pin Rollins without the referee seeing. Reigns' heel turn would essentially be complete right here.


(July PPV)- Battleground- Roman Reigns (c) vs Seth Rollins II= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

The rematch would happen right here at this PPV because Rollins of course would want another match considering the way Reigns won back at Money in the Bank. The fans would be more behind Seth Rollins than they ever were before here and Reigns would of course turn Rollins down refusing. The Authority would get involved basically giving Rollins his match against Reigns because they would want the title off of Reigns at any cost but deep down they really would side with Roman basically turning on Rollins with Triple H costing Rollins the title. Reigns would of course go over basically aligning himself with The Authority.


(August PPV)- SummerSlam- Roman Reigns (c) vs John Cena= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Reigns

Cena would end up becoming the new #1 Contender for Reigns' title by basically stepping up. Cena of course wants to end Reigns' title reign because not only does he want to be champion again but that he wants to be the one to finally shut Reigns up basically accusing him of being a hypocrite by aligning himself with The Authority turning his back on the WWE Universe when he said he would never sell out. Reigns then basically would say that he is not the bad guy he is not the good guy he is the guy and that he wants to be the guy to beat the guy who runs the place and that the WWE Universe turned their backs on him way back when in 2015 as soon as he won the Royal Rumble Match. Reigns could go on a tirade saying how he tried being the nice guy playing up to the fans and it got him nowhere and that he is all about himself now and no one else but that he is not a member of The Authority but that he finally sees things from their POV. Reigns would basically win this match but barely after a long and hard fought match but then cue Ambrose with his Money in the Bank briefcase teasing a cash-in as his music plays and he comes out at the end of the show with briefcase in hand taunting Reigns. The 2 former brothers face off in a staredown to end SummerSlam.


(September PPV)- Night of Champions- Roman Reigns (c) vs Antonio Cesaro= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

Cesaro would become #1 Contender by winning a 20-man Over the Top Rope Battle Royal to become #1 Contender by last eliminating Rollins. Cesaro the wild card no one expected him to be here much less be "the guy" to challenge Reigns for the title but that since he is that he is going to do us all a favor and save us from Reigns' reign of terror. Reigns then basically calls Cesaro a pretender and that he will basically crush Cesaro's hopes and dreams basically doing the same to him that he has done to all the others before him and that no one has or ever will beat him for his WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Reigns would go over again but he would do it cleanly this time by beating Cesaro cleanly right in the middle of the ring. Reigns would somehow counter out of the Sharpshooter sending Cesaro flying and when he does Reigns goes into the corner and comes right out spearing the living daylights out of Cesaro.


(October PPV)- Hell in a Cell- Roman Reigns (c) vs Dean Ambrose= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

The 2 former brothers finally collide with one another but in Satan's structure inside the Devil's playground inside Hell in A Cell. Considering the build-up it would be perfect if you think about it and then there is always the option of Ambrose using his "Plan B" that being the Money in the Bank briefcase to cash in on Reigns in the event if Ambrose loses.

But we are left with the question of who is the masked man?


(November PPV)- Survivor Series- Roman Reigns (c) vs Brock Lesnar w/Paul Heyman= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

The masked man in the build-up would be revealed to be Samoa Joe former TNA standout NXT stalwart finally called up to the main roster with Joe's first feud being Ambrose...Reigns would basically go on and on about how he is practically a One Man Army until he is interrupted by Heyman who basically says that until he beats this man he is nothing his entire championship reign means nothing until...then Lesnar's music hits and Lesnar comes out. Lesnar basically competes in his first Survivor Series PPV since Survivor Series 2003 but also could Lesnar be the man who finally ends Reigns' title reign?

(December PPV)- TLC- Roman Reigns (c) vs Randy Orton= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

Orton after a long lay-off that I would have him take after SummerSlam basically returns again but here at Tables, Ladders and Chairs to be the one to face Reigns but as for what kind of match these 2 will have? A Tables, Ladders and Chairs Match and both men have experience in this match which of course would go on last but Orton would come close to winning the title but Reigns would somehow win this match going over Orton cleanly.

(February 2017 PPV)- Fastlane= Roman Reigns (c) vs John Cena vs Randy Orton vs AJ Styles vs Samoa Joe vs Kane (Elimination Chamber Match)= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion

(Cash in)- Dean Ambrose vs Roman Reigns= Winner: New WWE World Heavyweight Champion Dean Ambrose

Reigns would have to be forced to defend his title against not 1 not 2 not 3 not 4 but 5 other guys in the Elimination Chamber...I would bring the Chamber Match back for Fastlane to determine who goes to Mania as the WWE World Heavyweight Champion but who goes over? Reigns would basically eliminating Cena last in the Chamber to retain his title but then cue Ambrose who comes out post-match to cash in on a weakened, vulnerable Reigns...no interruptions Ambrose is cashing in as he's doing it.

(WrestleMania 33)- Roman Reigns vs Dean Ambrose (c) vs Seth Rollins (2017 Royal Rumble Match winner)

Cue The Shield Triple Threat Match as it finally happens. Ambrose defends his title against both Rollins and Reigns but who goes over? Rollins goes over to finally win back the title that he never lost by pinning Reigns which basically sets up Ambrose vs Rollins but both would be essentially babyfaces going at it.

I love the thought process behind your booking of the WWE WHC over the course of the next year. Only things I would change:

1. Have Reigns lose the title briefly over the summer. Even if it's from Battleground to Summerslam. Or even from Battleground or NOC to RAW a couple weeks later. Have that little break with someone like Ambrose or Styles winning the belt in dramatic fashion with Reigns over as the big heel.

2. Reigns needs to go into Wrestlemania 33 as Champion, and the main event should be Reigns vs Rollins, have Rollins not get a shot until then, and build it up. Have Triple H cost him MITB, setting up Triple H vs Rollins at Summerslam. Have Rollins go all the way until the Rumble and win entering at 1 or 2.

My year of booking would go like this:

Payback - Reigns (c) vs Styles - Reigns with a dirty finish, heel turn almost complete
Extreme Rules - Reigns (c) vs Styles 2 No DQ - Reigns wins clean, already full fledged heel
Money in the Bank - Reigns (c) vs Orton - Reigns wins clean; Ambrose wins MITB
Battleground - Reigns (c) vs Owens vs Cesaro - Reigns wins clean
Summerslam - Reigns (c) vs Lesnar - Reigns wins dirty
RAW night after Summerslam - Lesnar confronts Reigns, destroys him in the ring, Ambrose cashes in MITB and wins Title
Night of Champions - Ambrose (c) vs Reigns - Reigns wins dirty
Hell in a Cell - Reigns (c) vs Ambrose II HIAC - Reigns wins clean
Survivor Series - Reigns (c) vs Orton - Reigns wins dirty
TLC - Reigns (c) vs Orton TLC Match - Reigns wins
Royal Rumble - Reigns (c) vs Ambrose vs Orton - Reigns wins clean, Rollins wins Royal Rumble
Fastlane - Elimination Chamber - Reigns (c) vs Orton vs Cena vs Styles vs Ambrose - Reigns wins beating Cena last due to Taker distracting Cena.
Wrestlemania 33 - Reigns (c) vs Rollins - Rollins wins title

During this, Reigns would have random defenses on RAW as well against guys like Ziggler, Zayn, Cena, Orton, Cesaro etc, winning all of them. By Wrestlemania, he'll be the top heel in the company and Rollins will get another Wrestlemania moment by ending the Roman Empire that had been running rampant and dominating over the past year.
 
As for the original post ... I must say ... I don't dislike it.

I think that would work very well in getting Reigns heat, getting Ambrose a nice transitional title and getting us to a fantastic Main Event for WrestleMania 33.

Of course, I want AJ Styles to be WWE World Heavyweight Champion, but I am a mark. For the overall plan. This sets up Regins to be strong for years to come and satiates some of the Internet crowd.

The question is ... while Reigns reigns for so long ... can creative book the rest of the show well enough for us to care without the title involved? They should be able to, but they have struggled with that a ton recently.
 
I question anyone who would book so many clean Roman victories that will be met with a chorus of boos. If your post was about what you expect to happen, then I think your booking is close, except that WWE won't blow its load by doing Roman/Triple H, Roman/Seth, Roman/Cena, Roman/Brock and Roman/Randy all back-to-back. Here's what I would've done:

1. Payback: Roman Reigns vs. Samoa Joe

Triple H would send out Samoa Joe as his "assassin" to take out Roman on the post-Mania Raw. He'll be built up as a star right from his debut and will immediately be put in the title picture at Payback. Roman wins, but Joe is immediately a top guy.

2. Extreme Rules: Roman Reigns vs. Chris Jericho

Chris Jericho will promise Triple H he'll take the title from Roman, but also fail. That would serve to write him out of the show.

3. Money in the Bank: Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins

Seth comes back as Triple H's next hired gun to take down Roman. Seth distances himself from Triple though and works more as a babyface, with this match-up being more like Punk/Cena 5 years ago. Seth would win, hopefully to cheers, and it would work as his face turn.

4. Battleground: Seth Rollins vs. Samoa Joe

Triple H is pissed with Seth now so he sicks Joe after him. Unfortunately, Joe would lose this one as well, but he'll get his heat back when he beats Cena at SummerSlam.

5. SummerSlam: Seth Rollins vs. Triple H

Triple H is sick of Seth's disobedience and attempts to discipline him himself. Triple H is somehow forced to put his job as COO on the line. This is a big heated rivalry, and Seth beats Triple H clean to cement himself as a top guy and end the Authority angle.

6. Night of Champions: Seth Rollins vs. Brock Lesnar

Brock wants revenge for what Seth did to him the year before, and this time, there's no Roman to get pinned, no Undertaker to interfere, and no Authority to have Seth's back. Seth is up for the challenge, but ultimately loses to Brock.

7. Hell in a Cell: Kane vs. Brock Lesnar in Hell in a Cell

This is the 20th anniversary of Kane's debut in October in Undertaker's Hell in a Cell match, so it's fitting for Kane to get a push. Kane says his sole purpose in life was to destroy Undertaker's legacy, and Brock took that from him. He says that if he can beat the man that broke Taker's streak, it's just as good as beating the streak himself. Kane loses of course as this was just one final hoorah.

8. Survivor Series: Shane McMahon vs. Brock Lesnar in a Falls Count Anywhere match

Shane and Heyman clash almost week-to-week as this match is built up all year. Shane's entire career leads up to this moment where he does the impossible and beats Brock to win the WWE Championship. The Balor Club, who wrecked havoc all summer and finally revealed to be in cahoots with Vince, interfere to stop Shane from winning the title. The Shield however reunites and fight them and Brock off, causing Shane to capitalize and win the title.

9. TLC: Shane McMahon vs. Kevin Owens in a TLC match

A trustfund baby holding the title makes Kevin Owens sick as he needs to fight every day to put food on his kid's plate. He beats Shane up on Raw and cashes in to win the WWE Championship. Shane gets his rematch at TLC, but fails to get the title back after doing a huge leap off the top of the ladder onto the announce desk, writing him out for a while.

12. Royal Rumble: Brock Lesnar vs. Kevin Owens

Brock returns for his rematch clause and feuds with Owens leading up to the Rumble. He has a scuffle with the Shield on the Rumble's go home Raw and gets Triple Power Bombed through a table as WWE.com says they don't know if Brock is going to be cleared to compete. Heyman says Brock will compete because nothing stops the Beast, but he wrestles at the Rumble with a noticeable handicap. KO beats Brock clean, with Brock's kayfabe injury protecting him from his loss.

13. Fastlane: AJ Styles vs. Kevin Owens

AJ gets his title shot next, but KO beats him right in the lead-up to WrestleMania where he faces Royal Rumble winner Sami Zayn.

14. WrestleMania 33: Sami Zayn vs. Kevin Owens

Sami wins the Rumble from #1, cementing himself as a huge underdog and getting the Daniel Bryan push to WrestleMania. He immediately reignites his feud with Kevin Owens, who's being portrayed as a huge beast after beating Brock clean at the Rumble. Sami and Kevin settle their intense rivalry spanning years throughout different promotions at the grandest stage of 'em all. Sami will finally get revenge for losing the NXT title and win the big one at WrestleMania. Cena vs. Taker will main event the show, so WWE can afford to push two new stars in the title picture. We'll also get the Shield 3-way, Shane/Triple H, Wyatts/Balor Club & AJ/Orton so the rest of the card will also be stacked.

I actually like this a lot but a Zayn/Owens main event at Mania 33 especially for the title wouldn't really work on paper anyway because they aren't established as main eventers well at least not yet because they are still in the midcard

Seth comes back as Triple H's next hired gun to take down Roman. Seth distances himself from Triple though and works more as a babyface, with this match-up being more like Punk/Cena 5 years ago. Seth would win, hopefully to cheers, and it would work as his face turn.

4. Battleground: Seth Rollins vs. Samoa Joe

Triple H is pissed with Seth now so he sicks Joe after him. Unfortunately, Joe would lose this one as well, but he'll get his heat back when he beats Cena at SummerSlam.

5. SummerSlam: Seth Rollins vs. Triple H

Triple H is sick of Seth's disobedience and attempts to discipline him himself. Triple H is somehow forced to put his job as COO on the line. This is a big heated rivalry, and Seth beats Triple H clean to cement himself as a top guy and end the Authority angle.

6. Night of Champions: Seth Rollins vs. Brock Lesnar

Brock wants revenge for what Seth did to him the year before, and this time, there's no Roman to get pinned, no Undertaker to interfere, and no Authority to have Seth's back. Seth is up for the challenge, but ultimately loses to Brock.

7. Hell in a Cell: Kane vs. Brock Lesnar in Hell in a Cell

This is the 20th anniversary of Kane's debut in October in Undertaker's Hell in a Cell match, so it's fitting for Kane to get a push. Kane says his sole purpose in life was to destroy Undertaker's legacy, and Brock took that from him. He says that if he can beat the man that broke Taker's streak, it's just as good as beating the streak himself. Kane loses of course as this was just one final hoorah.

8. Survivor Series: Shane McMahon vs. Brock Lesnar in a Falls Count Anywhere match

Shane and Heyman clash almost week-to-week as this match is built up all year. Shane's entire career leads up to this moment where he does the impossible and beats Brock to win the WWE Championship. The Balor Club, who wrecked havoc all summer and finally revealed to be in cahoots with Vince, interfere to stop Shane from winning the title. The Shield however reunites and fight them and Brock off, causing Shane to capitalize and win the title.

9. TLC: Shane McMahon vs. Kevin Owens in a TLC match

A trustfund baby holding the title makes Kevin Owens sick as he needs to fight every day to put food on his kid's plate. He beats Shane up on Raw and cashes in to win the WWE Championship. Shane gets his rematch at TLC, but fails to get the title back after doing a huge leap off the top of the ladder onto the announce desk, writing him out for a while.

12. Royal Rumble: Brock Lesnar vs. Kevin Owens

Brock returns for his rematch clause and feuds with Owens leading up to the Rumble. He has a scuffle with the Shield on the Rumble's go home Raw and gets Triple Power Bombed through a table as WWE.com says they don't know if Brock is going to be cleared to compete. Heyman says Brock will compete because nothing stops the Beast, but he wrestles at the Rumble with a noticeable handicap. KO beats Brock clean, with Brock's kayfabe injury protecting him from his loss.

13. Fastlane: AJ Styles vs. Kevin Owens

AJ gets his title shot next, but KO beats him right in the lead-up to WrestleMania where he faces Royal Rumble winner Sami Zayn.

14. WrestleMania 33: Sami Zayn vs. Kevin Owens

Sami wins the Rumble from #1, cementing himself as a huge underdog and getting the Daniel Bryan push to WrestleMania. He immediately reignites his feud with Kevin Owens, who's being portrayed as a huge beast after beating Brock clean at the Rumble. Sami and Kevin settle their intense rivalry spanning years throughout different promotions at the grandest stage of 'em all. Sami will finally get revenge for losing the NXT title and win the big one at WrestleMania. Cena vs. Taker will main event the show, so WWE can afford to push two new stars in the title picture. We'll also get the Shield 3-way, Shane/Triple H, Wyatts/Balor Club & AJ/Orton so the rest of the card will also be stacked.

From a fan wanting to see the best matches, I like it.

From a fan knowing there's a business side to it, it doesn't work.

Zayn/Owens aren't big enough yet to main event Wrestlemania. They need big names in the main event. Zayn/Owens aren't household names yet. 5 years from now? Absolutely. ONE of them in the main event? Maybe. But as of right now and likely a year from now, Zayn/Owens doesn't sell as THE main event of THE show.

I also don't like all the flip flop of the title. And Shane McMahon as champ? I'm sorry but no. The matches themselves I like, but not for the WWE WHC. It just doesn't work.
 
I actually like this a lot but a Zayn/Owens main event at Mania 33 especially for the title wouldn't really work on paper anyway because they aren't established as main eventers well at least not yet because they are still in the midcard

That's what an entire year of building up would do. Sami would be IC Champ and Owens would be Mr. MitB all year-round. They'll both have their fair share of Raw and SD main events and they'll be in the spotlight. Sami will pin Kevi to be the sole survivor in a huge Team Zayn vs. Team Owens match, and Kevin will cash in right after, setting up Sami as a top contender. By that point, he'd be a no-brainer to win the Rumble.

And like I said, Cena vs. Undertaker would be the actual main event of the show, with Shane/Triple H, Dean vs. Seth vs. Roman, Wyatts/Balor Club and Brock/Orton also stacking the card. They don't lose anything by giving Sami/Kevin the title since the card is already stacked. I don't see the point in wasting the marquee Mania WWE title shot on Taker/Cena or the Shield 3-way when the matches simply don't need it. They'll be draws on their own. Sami/Kevin will have a red hot feud and the title will provide huge stakes that will make it a must-see event. A victory for Sami will also cement his place as a top face going forward.

I also really prefer it when the person contending for the title at Mania is someone who hasn't held the title yet. It just feels far more important for Sami to win his first WWE title and carve his place in history than to see Cena or Orton win their 72nd title.

I also don't like all the flip flop of the title. And Shane McMahon as champ? I'm sorry but no. The matches themselves I like, but not for the WWE WHC. It just doesn't work.

The hot potato is the AE fanboy in me, but I feel like we're due for some consecutive title changes after the really long Punk, Orton, Lesnar and Rollins reigns. I personally think Shane deserves the title and he would win it to a huge pop. He would be the perfect guy to put over Owens for the title since he's the only affluent character that Kevin Owens can antagonize for having money and stealing the spotlight, and still remain the babyface in the feud.
 
Reigns v Styles at Payback. Reigns gets the win in a long, highly competitive match. These two will put on a fantastic match, I'm sure of it, where both end up looking better.

Reigns (c) v Jericho v Styles - Extreme Rules. It is important to keep Styles at a high level. A triple threat would be fantastic entertainment but Jericho gives the feud an extra twist. If I'm honest, despite liking AJ and Roman a lot, both are limited on the mic. Jericho would deliver an extra boost of charisma to help potentially sell this feud. Then again, a two PPV program for Reigns/Styles might allow them to show their personality.

Reigns (c) v Jericho. MITB. Ladder match or otherwise. A strong heel for Reigns to play off. Moreover, Jericho would force Reigns to step up his game on the mic.

Reigns (c) v *insert LON member here* Battleground. Sheamus, Del Rio, even Rusev. A cool down before Summerslam where Reigns gets a big win over a legitimate heel. Del Rio would provide a very credible opponent and someone who would give Roman a great match. By then Cena and Orton may be back so there would be extra firepower to sell subscriptions.

Reigns (c) v Ambrose. Summerslam. Babyface v Babyface. This could also work with Brock but I like Ambrose in this role. Keep him strong leading into Summerslam and have the two friends compete for the biggest prize and to see who is better. The twist should really be a returning Rollins interfering ensuring neither man is defeated. That would be an incredible moment for him to return.

Reigns (c) v Ambrose. NOC. This time they are guaranteed a winner. Except, Mr MITB cashes in. I'd suggest Wyatt is a good choice but Owens could work too. This would give Reigns a break from the belt but also help elevate Wyatt.

Wyatt (c) v Brock. HIAC. This would be an absolute war and would be a great match. Brock could win the first match at Summerslam and then Wyatt wins the rematch via interference. They could then, inevitably, have a third at Mania.

Wyatt (c) v Cena. Survivor Series. I can't imagine Cena doing anything other than working with mid-carders this Summer. This would be the right time to insert him back into the title picture and put over Wyatt. The Family could get involved but Wyatt would have the momentum of a lifetime.

Wyatt (c) v Cena. TLC. I enjoyed their feud last time, so another match would be enjoying to see. Wyatt wins again.

Wyatt (c) v Roman. RR. I'd probably have Roman win. This seems counter-intuitive given Wyatt would have strong momentum but they could do something big for him at Mania, like a match with Brock. Indeed, have Brock or Ambrose cost him the match if needs be.

Royal Rumble match - Rollins wins.

Wrestlemania. Reigns (c) v Rollins v Ambrose. Ambrose finally, finally wins the belt. There is a first time world champ and he does it in the main-event of Mania. This match would be a 5-star classic and would provide a fitting chapter in The Shield history.

This is just some fantasy booking. Not everything makes sense but I like it and it seems logical enough. In terms of Network specials and Raw title matches there could be Reigns and Wyatt against the likes of AJ, Cesaro, Ziggler, Ryback, Miz, Nevile, Zayn. Reigns/Owens could easily be a PPV match. At lot of good opportunities.
 
If anything how I would book the WWE World Heavyweight Championship from now to WrestleMania 33 in terms of the title picture:


(May PPV) Payback- Roman Reigns (c) vs AJ Styles= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

I would have Reigns win the title but by doing it in a controversial manner by cheating of course. Therefore it would basically build up Roman's arrogance as a cocky, self-absorbed champion since he would say he is not a bad guy he is not a good guy he is the guy and he would basically have to resort to cheating just to hold on to his title which would just add to the attitude change. Reigns would basically still give that mantra of not being a bad guy but that he still had to do what he had to do to come out on top and for that he makes no apologies.


(May PPV) Extreme Rules- Roman Reigns (c) vs Triple H= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

This is where I would bring Triple H back to WWE TV with him demanding his one on one rematch for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and Triple H he is technically still entitled to a rematch for the title that Triple H in his mind lost at WrestleMania 32 to Roman Reigns. The rivalry would essentially continue but the fans of course would be more behind Triple H than ever especially considering Roman's new attitude and their match at Extreme Rules I would either make it a Last Man Standing Match or a Hell in A Cell Match. For me preferably their match would be decided in a Last Man Standing Match and considering their rivalry it only makes sense. Reigns would basically be solidified as "The Guy" by not only beating Triple H in a Last Man Standing Match but by beating Triple H not once but twice.


(June PPV)- Money in the Bank- Roman Reigns (c) vs Seth Rollins= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

This is where I would have Rollins make his triumphant return back from injury and of course Rollins would demand his rematch for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, a title that he never even lost. Reigns being the WWE World Heavyweight Champion he would tell Rollins that he has his match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Reigns then tells Rollins he will beat him just like he did Triple H not once but twice but that he will also beat Rollins just like AJ Styles. Reigns then tells Rollins that as soon as he beats him he will put him back on the shelf right where Reigns in his mind feels like Rollins belongs. Dean Ambrose for me he would win the Money in the Bank briefcase at the PPV but then Reigns would beat Rollins controversially by use of a steel chair coming into play but also putting his feet on the ropes for leverage to pin Rollins without the referee seeing. Reigns' heel turn would essentially be complete right here.


(July PPV)- Battleground- Roman Reigns (c) vs Seth Rollins II= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

The rematch would happen right here at this PPV because Rollins of course would want another match considering the way Reigns won back at Money in the Bank. The fans would be more behind Seth Rollins than they ever were before here and Reigns would of course turn Rollins down refusing. The Authority would get involved basically giving Rollins his match against Reigns because they would want the title off of Reigns at any cost but deep down they really would side with Roman basically turning on Rollins with Triple H costing Rollins the title. Reigns would of course go over basically aligning himself with The Authority.


(August PPV)- SummerSlam- Roman Reigns (c) vs John Cena= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Reigns

Cena would end up becoming the new #1 Contender for Reigns' title by basically stepping up. Cena of course wants to end Reigns' title reign because not only does he want to be champion again but that he wants to be the one to finally shut Reigns up basically accusing him of being a hypocrite by aligning himself with The Authority turning his back on the WWE Universe when he said he would never sell out. Reigns then basically would say that he is not the bad guy he is not the good guy he is the guy and that he wants to be the guy to beat the guy who runs the place and that the WWE Universe turned their backs on him way back when in 2015 as soon as he won the Royal Rumble Match. Reigns could go on a tirade saying how he tried being the nice guy playing up to the fans and it got him nowhere and that he is all about himself now and no one else but that he is not a member of The Authority but that he finally sees things from their POV. Reigns would basically win this match but barely after a long and hard fought match but then cue Ambrose with his Money in the Bank briefcase teasing a cash-in as his music plays and he comes out at the end of the show with briefcase in hand taunting Reigns. The 2 former brothers face off in a staredown to end SummerSlam.


(September PPV)- Night of Champions- Roman Reigns (c) vs Antonio Cesaro= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

Cesaro would become #1 Contender by winning a 20-man Over the Top Rope Battle Royal to become #1 Contender by last eliminating Rollins. Cesaro the wild card no one expected him to be here much less be "the guy" to challenge Reigns for the title but that since he is that he is going to do us all a favor and save us from Reigns' reign of terror. Reigns then basically calls Cesaro a pretender and that he will basically crush Cesaro's hopes and dreams basically doing the same to him that he has done to all the others before him and that no one has or ever will beat him for his WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Reigns would go over again but he would do it cleanly this time by beating Cesaro cleanly right in the middle of the ring. Reigns would somehow counter out of the Sharpshooter sending Cesaro flying and when he does Reigns goes into the corner and comes right out spearing the living daylights out of Cesaro.


(October PPV)- Hell in a Cell- Roman Reigns (c) vs Dean Ambrose= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

The 2 former brothers finally collide with one another but in Satan's structure inside the Devil's playground inside Hell in A Cell. Considering the build-up it would be perfect if you think about it and then there is always the option of Ambrose using his "Plan B" that being the Money in the Bank briefcase to cash in on Reigns in the event if Ambrose loses. The brutality that both men have that they both share this match would be as brutal as they come as far as Hell in a Cell is concerned and as for who goes over? Reigns would somehow go over because a mystery person would get involved in the match pretty much costing Ambrose the title but the mystery person would of course be a masked man. Reigns would watch this all happen and of course after the masked man gets involved Reigns crawls into the cover pinning Ambrose in a war of attrition. But we are left with the question of who is the masked man?


(November PPV)- Survivor Series- Roman Reigns (c) vs Brock Lesnar w/Paul Heyman= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

The masked man in the build-up would be revealed to be Samoa Joe former TNA standout NXT stalwart finally called up to the main roster with Joe's first feud being Ambrose...Reigns would basically go on and on about how he is practically a One Man Army until he is interrupted by Heyman who basically says that until he beats this man he is nothing his entire championship reign means nothing until...then Lesnar's music hits and Lesnar comes out. Lesnar basically competes in his first Survivor Series PPV since Survivor Series 2003 but also could Lesnar be the man who finally ends Reigns' title reign? WrestleMania 31 rematch right here it basically ends in Reigns beating Lesnar but just barely because Lesnar in this match would suplex the hell out of Reigns basically beating the holy hell out of him the entire match but somehow winning by resorting to a low blow and an exposed turnbuckle in the match. Post-match Lesnar would basically beat the hell out of Reigns taking him to Suplex City some more and cue Ambrose's cash-in attempted cash-in because Joe would stop him yet again from cashing in.


(December PPV)- TLC- Roman Reigns (c) vs Randy Orton= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

Orton after a long lay-off that I would have him take after SummerSlam basically returns again but here at Tables, Ladders and Chairs to be the one to face Reigns but as for what kind of match these 2 will have? A Tables, Ladders and Chairs Match and both men have experience in this match which of course would go on last but Orton would come close to winning the title but Reigns would somehow win this match going over Orton cleanly.


(January 2017 PPV)- Royal Rumble- Roman Reigns (c) vs Bray Wyatt= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns

I would have Bray Wyatt finally get his shot at the WWE World Heavyweight Championship...a 2015 rivalry renewed right here but role reversal with Wyatt as a babyface and Reigns as the heel. Wyatt he would basically cut promos on Reigns calling him out for the hypocrite he is but also for saying that he has become everything that he said he hated but that all of it to become a success will all be for naught especially when he knocks him off that pedestal. Wyatt would basically play mind games with Reigns in the build-up with the lights going out after the Wyatt signature goes off in the build-up but also Wyatt attacking Reigns in the build-up and Reigns also attacking Wyatt in the build-up. This rivalry would basically get personal again really fast but who goes over? Reigns would but Wyatt would come so close within a hair but someone would get involved in this match costing Wyatt the title but who would it be? It would be Finn Balor but as for who would win the 2017 Royal Rumble Match? Rollins would win it basically eliminating Mr. Money in the Bank Dean Ambrose last because they would be in the final 2


(February 2017 PPV)- Fastlane= Roman Reigns (c) vs John Cena vs Randy Orton vs AJ Styles vs Samoa Joe vs Kane (Elimination Chamber Match)= Winner: Still WWE World Heavyweight Champion

(Cash in)- Dean Ambrose vs Roman Reigns= Winner: New WWE World Heavyweight Champion Dean Ambrose

Reigns would have to be forced to defend his title against not 1 not 2 not 3 not 4 but 5 other guys in the Elimination Chamber...I would bring the Chamber Match back for Fastlane to determine who goes to Mania as the WWE World Heavyweight Champion but who goes over? Reigns would basically eliminating Cena last in the Chamber to retain his title but then cue Ambrose who comes out post-match to cash in on a weakened, vulnerable Reigns...no interruptions Ambrose is cashing in as he's doing it. Ambrose cashes in successfully on Reigns ending Reigns' near-year long title reign to become the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion ending Reigns' reign of terror to become champion for the first time. Rollins then comes out post-match after the cash-in to stare down with Ambrose the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion.


(WrestleMania 33)- Roman Reigns vs Dean Ambrose (c) vs Seth Rollins (2017 Royal Rumble Match winner)

Ambrose would be celebrating his title win of course and here you have Reigns to cut it short by saying he wants his rematch and he isn't going to go anywhere until he gets it but then cue Rollins to interrupt as he basically tells Reigns that unlike him he actually won the 2017 Royal Rumble Match so he has more of a right to be there than Reigns does seeing as how he lost the title. Reigns basically says that he is entitled to a rematch and that he has a rematch clause as Ambrose the WWE World Heavyweight Champion tells them that they are going to have to sort it out amongst themselves but that if he had it his way he would defend his title against the both of them. Cue The Shield Triple Threat Match as it finally happens. Ambrose defends his title against both Rollins and Reigns but who goes over? Rollins goes over to finally win back the title that he never lost by pinning Reigns which basically sets up Ambrose vs Rollins but both would be essentially babyfaces going at it.
This is pretty good booking BUT, I can't see WWE saving Seth Rollins until WM 33. Also, where do you see Kevin Owens in the WWE Title picture? Just a thought.
 
You did a pretty good job of booking the matches until WM 33.

I just have a hard time believing there wouldn't be a few more Triple Threats or Fatal Four Way matches for the whole year basically until Fastlane.

If you think about all the top talent that will be available, say by June 2016, such as Triple H, Rollins, Ambrose, Styles, Owens, Wyatt, Cena, Cesaro, Zayn, Orton and more, I think there would be some storylines that would lend themselves and the matches better to be multi-man matches.
