6. Seth Rollins

In some respect, Seth Rollins helped the tide turn in Roman Reigns’s favor by getting some of the last reluctant fans to hop aboard The Big Dog Express during the Shield reunion. Now back together again, Roman and Seth have been cutting some great promos in solidarity, and it’s always fun watching them work together in the ring.

Rollins has also done a great job of playing off of Jason Jordan, who remains a babyface but is very likely turning heel as an “end game” strategy due to his status as Kurt Angle’s overbearingly entitled son.

When Jordan tried to make himself a member of the Shield and kept waxing poetic about his accomplishments, perhaps even taking credit for Reigns’s win over Samoa Joe, Rollins wasn’t having any of it. His facial expressions, specifically the one where he closed his eyes in embarrassment as Jordan’s cringeworthy display, were tremendous during the entire segment.

For at least a year, Rollins has been one of the best parts of Raw, and that won’t change any time soon. You can tell just how much respect everybody has for this guy. It will be interesting to see what the future holds for Rollins and Jordan as Raw Tag Team Champions, especially after The Bar lost to Titus Worldwide in a bizarre (but nevertheless interesting) upset.
