Joey Styles On Why Vince McMahon Pushes Roman Reigns, Shelton Benjamin On His WWE Return

- Former ECW announcer Joey Styles recently took part in a Facebook Q&A, as seen above. During the interview, Cathy Kelley asked Styles why WWE continued to push Roman Reigns as a babyface.

"Bottom line is, if our chairman thinks he sees a future star as a babyface, that's how things are gonna play out," Style replied (h/t to Uproxx for the transcription). But the answer is Vince thinks it can work. He's been right much, much, much, much, much more than wrong over the course of the last 40 years. I'm sorry, but I'm not gonna second-guess the chairman."

When Kelley noted that her female friends love Reigns, Styles replied, "That's part of it: Moms are the ones who bring kids to shows. Kids like Roman Reigns. Moms like Roman Reigns. That's the reason. Just because some people boo him doesn't mean everyone doesn't like him."

- As seen last night on WWE SmackDown, Shelton Benjamin is returning to WWE on the SmackDown brand. Benjamin commented on his WWE return on Twitter, writing:
