1. Roman Reigns
Roman Reigns is on deck to become the face of WWE. His coronation was planned last year, but the people rebelled against him. Since then, he’s been paying his dues using consistent work and a great feud with Bray Wyatt. The people are warming up to Reigns more than they were earlier this year when it appeared to them that Reigns was the golden boy being pushed to the top too quickly.
In the absence of Cena and Orton, Roman Reigns is the top babyface in the company for better or worse. It’s very likely that Roman Reigns will feud with Seth Rollins over the next few months, and it’s entirely possible that Reigns will become WWE Champion. That would lead Reigns into Wrestlemania 32 as the champion for his second straight main event. If that isn’t becoming the face of WWE, there is no such thing.
