Roman Reigns Set To Make An Impact At Royal Rumble 2014?!

Roman Reigns has been the standout, powerhouse member of The Shield for the past few months and he continues to break away from his fellow Shield members as they often run into conflict with each other. They remain a unit as of the posting of this blog, but many WWE wrestling fans speculate that at Royal Rumble 2014, Roman Reigns will have a huge turn in the ring and have to choose between his singles career and his membership in The Shield. Only time will tell if Reigns will go on the offensive, but his sheer size, strength and ability have caused discussion in the wake of the 2014 Royal Rumble. Fans of Roman Reigns have several options in the Mattel WWE world to put him on top when playing with wrestling figures.

Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins both debuted as the first ever Mattel WWE The Shield figures and Reigns figure is spot on. With tattoos placed on his shoulder just in time for release, Mattel was able to turn the figure out in a way that fans would appreciate, finally adding members of the justice serving group to their roster.

In Mattel WWE Elite 26, Roman Reigns got an entire arm tattoo treatment and extra articulation to give the beastly brawler a more accurate look. With accurate sizing and a molded vest, this version of Reigns came with a barricade to let anyone and everyone re-enact the monstrous spears that Roman Reigns loves to dish out.

Reign’s latest Mattel WWE figure comes in Series 37 with a shouting, open mouthed head sculpt that showcases just how wildly powerful he can get when he is in the ring. With a different style of molded vest, this represents Reign’s first appearance at WrestleMania and embodies his intensity.

Despite his newness, Roman Reigns is an easy dark-horse favorite to make a massive attack at the 2014 Royal Rumble and the question isn’t so much his ability, but whether or not that ability will tear apart his team.

The Four Best Mattel WWE Battle Packs of 2013!

2013 was a year of tag team, match ups and managerial resurgence in the WWE. The WWE Universe has been treated to debuts of teams like Los Matadores, the strengthening of The Shield and the facing off of old rivals like John Cena and Randy Orton. It takes two to tango, as they say! Here are four of the years BEST Mattel WWE Battle Packs:

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 21 Primetime Players!

Darren Young and Titus O’Neil had a breakout year in the WWE, racking up tag team wins and proving they have what it takes to roll with the big boys! This set presented a new, updated look for D.

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 24 The Shield!

Roman Reigns & Seth Rollins cemented The Shield’s position in the WWE Tag Team game, capturing the titles and proving to be unstoppable. Fans were discussing Shield action figures from the moment they debuted, and it was no surprise when Mattel delivered, and did they ever deliver on the debut figures of Rollins and Reigns. Including a folding chair to add to your collection, these two were a force to be reckoned with in 2013.

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 23 CM Punk vs. Vince McMahon!

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 23 CM Punk vs. Vince McMahon!

Everyone remembers CM Punk holding the WWE Championship hostage in 2012 during the “Summer of Punk,” but plenty forget when he and the boss, Mr. McMahon, actually took to facing off in the ring! Mattel commemorated that in Battle Packs 23, giving both Vince McMahon and CM Punk (complete with a new facial hair style) kendo sticks to even the odds…or maybe just to sword fight with!

 

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 25 Brock Lesnar & Paul Heyman!

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 25 Brock Lesnar & Paul Heyman!

Arguably the definitive ‘Paul Heyman Guy,’ Brock Lesnar holds as much respect for the ECW founder as Heyman does for Brock. With Heyman around, Brock doesn’t have to say much (other than requesting Paul say something stupid once in a while) with his best friend around to speak for him. A match made in heaven as two of the most notorious figures in wrestling history team up and Paul Heyman debuts in the Mattel WWE line.

Whether you are looking for a match up to settle a grudge, a superstar and his trusty manager or a hot tag team, Mattel WWE Battle Packs always deliver the goods.
