Roman Reigns & The Family

The League of Nations was officially formed this week. I already talked about them. Four heels obviously creates a situation where you can have four faces to take them on. The four faces that have been going against these heels this week are Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose, and The Usos. Roman Reigns is related to The Usos. Dean Ambrose is like a brother to him. The Family is formed.

I just got done saying I dislike affiliations you just have a feeling will not last long being given team names and whatever else over-development. Why get worked up over something that might end very easily and quickly? The Family is not a group that should even be allowed to last long. Sheamus needs a group to help his credibility. A group will not do the same for Roman Reigns and his issues with smarks.

This group just seems like a loose affiliation that came together to stand against The League of Nations. Roman Reigns needed some backup. That just seems like something short-term. Why even bother treating it like it will be an official stable? Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose have been teaming now and then ever since The Shield broke up. Did the WWE come up with a fancy team name for them? No. No reason to add in The Usos and start treating this as a stable.

Another issue I have with recent developments is that The Usos and Dean Ambrose have their own separate title feuds going. And those title feuds are not with any of the four members in The League of Nations. It is possible to have one wrestler or team have two angles at one time. It can be done well. It should not be done often. One angle might get the short end of the stick. You might not get the most out of either angle. That is one of the issues with the diva division right now. While Charlotte is still having issues with Paige, the WWE is already teasing friction between Charlotte and Becky Lynch. With recent issues, you can understand Dean Ambrose not being able to properly further his feud with Kevin Owens. And The New Day have been feuding with The Usos and have been aligned with The League of Nations. Right now, everything seems fine. But if the WWE does continue this stable, it better not become a Roman Reigns support group. I can picture the personal feuds The Usos and Dean Ambrose get down the line getting the short end of the stick for the benefit of pushing Roman Reigns. Not only might that hold back The Usos and Ambrose, it might hold back whomever they are feuding with and hurt feud and storyline development in those angles.
