Even Rikishi thinks Roman Reigns should turn heel

We're just days away from WrestleMania 32 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, where Roman Reigns will likely win the WWE world heavyweight championship from Triple H. He will probably be booed out of the building in the process. The majority of fans, or at least the most vocal at television shows, simply refuse to accept him as the conquering hero worthy of their adoration.

How do you fix that?

Rikishi is the latest to suggest a heel turn (via Fox Sports):

"I feel that, in due time, you're gonna see Roman Reigns become Roman Empire. Let's take it back to John Cena and Rock back in the day, when people felt like they was just shoved down their throats. Eventually, they earned the people's respect, and the next thing you know, they were just loved by the whole world. To me, you don't want to go against the WWE Universe. You never want to do that. To me, what works is to go with the flow. If you hate me so much like that, had it been me, I'd tell Vince, switch me heel right now. Let's give it to these people. I'd be the baddest frickin' heel that they'd ever see. And in due time, you would hate me so much, when I do turn babyface, guess what, [you'd love me]. It's a very simple fix."

Reigns has adopted a few heel mannerisms of late and rumors have been swirling that it's at least possible WWE is headed in this direction. After all, a cursory glance at the current roster shows the promotion needs top heels more than it does top babyfaces.

There's only one way to find out if it's the simple fix Rikishi thinks.

But will Vince McMahon finally change his mind?
