No. 2 Roman Reigns (One-time Tag Team champion; 2015 Royal Rumble winner; Main-evented WrestleMania 31)

Love him or hate him, you can deny what Roman Reigns has accomplished in WWE.

Though he held the Tag Team championship with Seth Rollins as a member of The Shield, its his other accomplishments that boosts Reigns to the No. 2 spot on the list.

After winning a Slammy for the 2014 Superstar of the Year, Reigns entered the Royal Rumble and was the last man standing to earn a spot in the main event of WrestleMania 31 against Brock Lesnar for the WWE World Heavyweight championship, much to the fans’ disapproval.

As you all know, Seth Rollins cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase at WrestleMania and pinned Reigns to become the WWE champ.

Despite losing the match, everything that Reigns has done is still quite impressive.

Since then, WWE has done a good job of keeping Reigns in the spotlight, while keeping him out of the title picture.

It seems like he is getting more-and-more over with the fans each week, and that the slow burn WWE is doing with Reigns is working.

I would be shocked if Reigns doesn’t win the WWE title within the next year.
