Seth Rollins
This year was built around the most reviled heel in recent memory. The man who betrayed his members of the Shield, the man behind “The Heist of the Century” at Wrestlemania 31, and the man who has fans anxiously waiting for his triumphant return from injury: Seth “The Architect” Rollins. This is the heel WWE should always market; someone who is good on the microphone and talented in the ring.
Honestly, who would’ve guess Seth Rollins’ WWE World Title push would work out this well? When he betrayed the Shield on June 2014, I suspected Seth Rollins would drown in the roster by the weight of bad booking (and Randy Orton). Thank God I was wrong and instead we had one of the best WWE world title reigns ever. He has beaten wrestlers we wanted to become champion or don’t want to become champion (thanks again, John Stewart for screwing John Cena).
Rollins’ heel heat grew in ways that heels are SUPPOSE to gain heat! No cheap tricks; just stealing victories from fan favorites! The method is old fashion yet consistent and effective! The booking behind the reign was carefully plotted and would’ve ended on an extremely satisfying note if Seth didn’t go through that freak accident. I sincerely hope Seth gets well and goes on to reclaim the title (hopefully from Reigns just to continue the storyline). Thank you Seth Rollins for being “The Man” WWE needed and get well soon!
DAMN IT! I meant “this is coming from a guy”
