Do they think Reigns is bigger than the belt?

By Scott Keith on May 7, 2018


Hey Scott,

I was wondering if it’s possible WWE thinks Reigns doesn’t need the belt to be a star — ala Taker or Andre? I know that sounds ridiculous, but they let him main event a ‘Mania with Taker without the title (and without any real issue or storyline between them) and he main events these b-shows against Strowman and Joe without the belt.

He’s basically Cena circa 2012 when Punk was champ. Maybe they think they’re gonna draw regardless and having the belt on Brock gets mainstream attention on their champ?

​I honestly think Reigns was originally booked to have the Universal title at Backlash, so I think it’s more a case of their booking being all screwed up than anything. ​
