If Reigns doesn't win at Fastlane...

[Starshine]

How would you feel if he wrestled Undertaker at Mania instead?

I think it's a much more interesting scenario than seeing him getting booed out of the stadium against Triple H for the title. At least there would be a much more organic atmosphere for therm to work with his heat, along with the fact it's Takers hometown. There's scarce few quality names Taker could face as it is, and they've been pushing him pretty hard as it is, so it's not like he'd be taking some more obvious guy's place. I just think it's the closest genuine comparison to their original Taker/Cena plans.

I wouldn't mind it considering Reigns said this is "his yard" last year and well, you know that's Taker's whole thing. If Reigns wants to be that guy then might as well let him work with someone who's been that guy for the longest time. It'll give him some respect even if he loses to Taker.

Different, fresh, bit of history to build on and most importantly not Braums. Works for me.

Taker would definitely need to put him over. If they can figure out a good story for it I'm cool with it, there's not a story that pops out at me between those two other than "I'm the big dog I want to beat the biggest dog".

I don't think it's the sort of match that needs a whole lot of story to it. The heat alone should be able to carry it.

At most I'd just have the story be Reigns no selling any of Taker's mystical stuff. Like the RAW after Fastlane after Reigns wins a main event match against, uh... Sheamus, he's pissed off and about to do a promo when Taker's dong distracts him. Taker comes down doing his usual schtick, but before the music stops playing Reigns spears the shit out of him, then immediately exits to the back as if he's nothing.

As long as Reigns brutalizes him it would be okay.

He doesn't even need to win, but this could be a very proper way to turn him heel.

What does lactose intolerance have to do with this?

I'd be happy with this match. Both seemingly 'invincible' makes it unpredictable, would be a first, and would get Reigns out of the title picture until they fix his *goshdarn* booking!

[madness50]

I would really be surprised if Reigns doesn't win at Fastlane. I want Ambrose to win, but I just don't see them jumping off the Reigns express. That being said, a Reigns-Taker match at Mania sounds pretty good to me.

[Jiren]

I'd find that preferable yob honest

I don't want to see that

Eh, the streak's over so any Taker vs ____ scenario lost what little luster they had for me after that.

I wouldn't mind seeing grudge match with Reigns vs Kofi if they let New Day run interference during Fast Lane, costing him the match. A New Day/Reigns feud would actually be pretty fun as long as Roman plays it as a tough guy who won't cannot sanction their buffoonery. They can do some 6 man tags leading up to it with him and the Usos.

That way Kofi gets some time closer to the "main event" area and Roman gets to work with a guy who will make him look good. Plus it'll be easier for people to cheer Roman if he's outnumbered.

[walterharrow]

I would rather they went with HHH vs Reigns vs Ambrose. The triple threat at Fast Lane somehow ends with both men pinning Brock Lesnar (after he has been attacked by the Wyatt Family). HHH then agrees to give them both a shot at Wrestlemania and the build for the match revolves around The Authority trying to turn the two against each other. They could even have Reigns accidentely cost Ambrose the IC title (by distracting Ambrose when he is attempting to help him).

Ambrose then wins the title at Wrestlemania and Roman Reigns turns heel the following night (which would be the big moment of the post mania Raw) which leads to a big feud between the two

Vince obviously wants to make Reigns the face of the company, but I think he would be so much better off if he was the top heel in the company

Another year, another Mania we don't get Cena/Taker. I understand injury stopped it this time but that's why you shouldn't have f***ed around so long instead of just doing the damn match. 

[Deleted]

Only if Roman and Taker kick each other in the dick for 10 minutes.

Just kidding, I'd enjoy Roman vs. Taker.

The match itself'd probably be quite fun, but it'd be something of a booking nightmare. Either you have Reigns's first clean loss be to someone who really should be retired already, or you have him water down the end of the streak and make damn certain he gets booed for the foreseeable future while at it.
