Last night on Raw, Roman Reigns was placed in the biggest Gauntlet Match of all time in WWE history as he went up against about 10 +/- men in the proclaimed "One vs. All" match. Only, we never got that far. Why? Because Roman Reigns was being manhandled by WWE's resident bully, Kevin Owens. Yes, the inevitable baby face shine that led to the unholy beat down of Roman Reigns eventually happened. It's wrestling and will continue to happen as such. But the fact remains that Roman Reigns did a damn good job of solidifying Kevin Owens' spot as one of the top 3 wrestling heels, if not the top... the other two being Sheamus and Del Rio.
Ever since Kevin burst onto the main roster by beating Cena at Elimination Chamber, he has been allowed to be the bully we've come to know him to be. He's been allowed to dominate most of his feuds and look absolutely boss status while doing it. He's bulldozed through face after face and left his mark. Yes, he's lost some high profile matches but he's also proven why him losing isn't always so bad because he can snap (I give you the beating he gave Ziggler a few weeks back).
And last night, when Roman Reigns was put in the One vs. All match it could've been too easy for WWE to either feed Owens to Reigns with a quick 3 minute elimination or simply have Owens dominate after being the fifth man in the ring. But instead, Roman Reigns got manhandled by Owens. I can't even recall a time when one of these gauntlet matches didn't even make it past the first opponent. Roman Reigns, while himself continuing to look strong, did something absolutely amazing and showcased a feat that makes true world champions... he made Kevin Owens look even stronger than himself, and that's saying something.
So love him or hate him, but Roman Reigns is definitely proving why having faith in him wasn't necessarily a bad idea.
