Roman Reigns Will Be Getting Pushed First

I thought at first Ambrose was going to be the one getting pushed first but it's clear to me that is not going to happen.

Shield has been around for a year and I won't mind them getting involved more into the main storylines not just as HHH's henchman. Reigns would probably the first to be in the main event, that can eventually cause the group to split. Not immediately but it has been done before.

I just hope by then that Ambrose and Rollins have their own feuds, storylines and that the disbanding of th shield is worth it.

I still think Ambrose may be pushed first still and Reigns dominance was just a way to distinguish himself from the group in case of a split. Sure Reigns looked impressive at Survivor Series but Ambrose still has a better upside in terms of carrying feuds and rivalries by himself at this point.
 
I'll be honest here. It doesn't look like they are pushing Reigns at this point to me. I get they had Reigns set a record in the Traditional Survivor Series match, but unless he breaks Kane's Royal Rumble elimination record, he isn't getting pushed. That's my logic

Reigns is the one who'll be pushed as THE guy. Between the way he broke up the Shield vs. Wyatt family brawl a couple of weeks ago
Oh yes. As you well know, Survivor Series hasn't aired over here, but when I saw the ending with the Wyatts, I knew he was going to get the sustained push. Not that there was any lack of evidence to that - he's hit the Spear to get the Shield the win, he's the primary guy during the assisted Powerbomb and JBL marks out the most for Reigns.

I've been a huge fan of Rollins ever since he had the metal gimmick in NXT and he's still my favourite of the three. I hope he can manage to get over in the main roster, but I think he can pull it off.

The pre-Shield hype concerning Ambrose was a little rough to take and I initially brushed it off as indy marks doing their thing, but ever since he came to the WWE, I saw what all the fuss was about this guy's mic skills and I ate me a big ol' helping of humble pie. The funny thing is, Ambrose seemed to get the initial big push, since he held the singles title and he got the match against 'Taker. I wouldn't say he's fallen out of favour per se, but Reigns just overtook him a little.

During the Shield's first few months, I saw Reigns as a Mason Ryan or even a Zeke Jackson - a big mute that they shovelled in there to give the group some muscle, yet he always exceeded my expectations (low as they were). Sure, he wasn't the mouthpiece of the group, but he did well in the limited mic time he got. Not astounding or world-altering, but good. He also went from "not the worst" to "pretty damn good" in the ring as the Shield rolled on. Ryback reminded us last year that you don't need to be Savage on the mic or Bret in the ring to get massively over and that booking CAN indeed play a major part in allowing a wrestler to get over.

And then, there's the look. He certainly has it - he's a big, relatively handsome man with some cool tattoos (if you're into that sort of thing, which I'm not really).

One of his biggest assets is his age - the dude's 28 and he can easily go for another ten to fifteen years (barring injuries and wellness-violations).

My stance on him is - what've we got to lose? I'd certainly enjoy an internal-Shield feud and programme with the Uso's or Trips or even the Rock after that.
 
PPV after Mania - Reigns wins the WWE title

Reigns wins the title one PPV after the breakup? Come on man seriously talk about shoving someone down peoples throats.

I'm all for Reigns getting the strap but he needs the chase and build up. I wouldn't put it on him till late 2014 if that.

Personally after the Shield breakup i'd have him as a face have a successful singles push slowly working his way up the ladder. The fans need to be behind him and then finally get up a title match at Survivor Series against some heel and have them cheat there way to the win, the fans will be pissed and then at tlc he finally takes it

If he's gonna be becoming the top dog, he needs the build, the support and that grind to the championship. Don't just give it to him
 
Have the Shield fight a 3-way match for the US title, and have a decent feud for it.That will give it some much needed relevance. Let Roman Reigns win it and that should be his first major Singles push as he goes up the ladder towards Main Eventer. Meanwhile, I think Ambrose should easily become a top heel(Singles) in the company by Wrestlemania 31 and be in the mix for the WWE title
