It looks like they're going with the Reigns/Rollins double turn after all the events that have happened the past few months.
-Crowd rejecting Reigns -Brock Lesnars Sportscenter announcement/crowd reaction -Reigns using straight up heel antics during the Bryan feud and teasing a heel turn
Does Seth come off as a humble, soft spoken face in this video to anyone else? The video could be out of character but it seems kinda useless to post it up if it isn't in character. Kinda feel like he's gonna turn face at his Today Show appearance after watching this video.
If they do a double turn how do you think they'll pull it off? Corporate Reigns, Heyman? Do you think both guys can pull off the other character alignment? I know face Shield Seth got alot of slack for his mic skills but he's always been pretty good on the stick. Reigns had flashes of heel brilliance during the Bryan feud.
It would suck to see Seth's dope heel run come to an end, but I can see him getting Jeff Hardy comparisons as a face like he's been getting Edge comparisons as a heel.

Videos mean nothing.
Sasha Banks was crying in her video and she's the top heel on NXT.

I think right off Wrestlemania, they'll stick with Reigns a a face and Rollins as a heel, mainly to test out what kind of effect the booking of Reigns in this match would have towards the crowd. If they start getting back on his side, they'll stick with the alignment as is... if Reigns comes out tomorrow night and is booed out of the building while Rollins is cheered to high heaven (post-Mania RAW.. it's bound to happen, but I'm also somewhat expecting at least a respectful showing for Reigns as he deserves at least that) I can see until at least Extreme Rules they'll keep the alignment as is....
Personally, I'd keep it loose.... don't even have the Authority come out to congratulate Rollins. Just keep J&J Security around, give Reigns justifiable frustration but not outright heeldom. If by the time Extreme Rules ends, and it doesn't look like the current alignment will stick. The following RAW.. have Rollins retain then have The Authority come to ringside with Triple H saying, "I should've said this right after Wrestlemania, but congratulations, and you're welcome." Then have Rollins say something along the lines of him saying everything he's accomplished this past year, he did himself and whenever he looked for guidance from The Authority, they were paying attention to Sting, they were paying attention to Rhonda Rousey, they were paying attention to The Rock, so he decided to stop waiting for The Authority and started making his own opportunities and it's a decision he should've made a long time ago, so as far as he's concerned, that working relationship is over. Later on in the night, Reigns calls out Rollins for one more match.... Rollins extends his hand and says that without the Authority clouding his mind anymore, it's time not to fight as enemies, but as men, and more importantly.. as brothers, teasing a Shield reunion. Only for Reigns to blindside him and align with The Authority.

Honestly, I don't think it's Reigns who's turning heel, or Rollins is turning face. I think Heyman is going to turn heel and betray Lesnar for the "Future of the WWE" Seth Rollins.

Why turn Seth face and Reigns heel so soon?
What Seth did was the ultimate heel move he could do in that situation. Brock and Reigns both earned and deserved a victory, Rollins didn't. He screwed over both guys, and stole the title.

I don't think so. I think that tonight did a lot to probably rehabilitate Roman as a face. He got to show vulnerability, he got to take Brock's punishment and retaliate in kind, and he got screwed and is not being the fast-tracked Golden Boy people dreaded after all. I don't think he'll magically be beloved or anything over night, but it will do a lot to take the teeth out of some of the criticisms towards him.

The only turn that's happening is a Lesnar face turn. Rollins screwed Lesnar, and Lesnar gets a rematch. Extreme Rules main event.
Reigns doesn't deserve a rematch, because he wasn't champion, and was pinned, so it makes perfect sense to take him out of the main event, and feud with someone else for a bit. Bray Wyatt has nothing to do, for example.

I'm pretty sure I heard a small chant starting for him. I think he's gonna be ok.

Bray Wyatt has nothing to do, for example. While Roman wasn't champion and was pinned, we don't know what would have happened if Rollins didn't come down. Like I said earlier, it's why you don't do a double turn. Had Reigns won the match, he would have deserved it and earned the title. Had Brock won, he would have deserved it and earned it. Seth didn't deserve the win and didn't earn the title. Both Roman and Brock have a legit complaint against Seth, Brock was screwed out his title, and Roman was screwed out of his one on one shot.
