The best thing that they did for Reigns was getting rid of the tactical vest and finally putting the Shield to rest. I mean I'd find it hilarious if some wrestler pulled out a gun and shot him in the chest and pinned him because he'd lost the bullet proof vest.
The thing that's made Roman's heel character work simply is less talking by him in promo's and Paul Heyman being added to the mix. If the goal when Lesnar departed was to put Heyman with Reigns then Vince really deserves a standing O for that move.
Oh and the reason why Reigns had to wear the tactical vest originally was that he wasn't much of a fitness buff, so it was to hide his beer belly. It was also a look that let Seth look bigger.
Smackdown's booking right now is getting really good. From the Alexa storyline to Banks and Bayley and all of the other ones, the stories are making sense.
Raw is still behind and Retribution is crap unless they have Batman show up and take on Bane or T-Bar or whatever his name is. Putting Mia in a mask was just stupid.
