Why Bronson Reed Could Be WWE’s Next Monster Heel

With a WWE environment returning to the era of the dominating heavyweight. Bronson Reed is one of the least utilized, but still potentially potent powerhouses on the list. The Australian superstar has unmatched size, agility, and pure aggression, and may become WWE’s next great monster heel. His recent identification with The Vision could be the first step toward becoming one.

A Colossal Presence With Unmatched Agility

Bronson Reed is not just a big man; he is a big man with talent. He weighs well in excess of 330 pounds, and attacks heavy-handed like a cruiserweight, mixing savage slams with astounding aerial assaults. His Tsunami Splash was one of the most destructive WWE finishers ever, as it could destroy a match within seconds. He should not be forgotten because it did not have to be intricate to be devastating.

The Vision: The Foundation of His Heel Dominance

Under the leadership of Seth Rollins as the head of The Vision. WWE has developed one of the most interesting current-day groups, and Bronson Reed perfectly fits the role of a powerbroker. Every dominant stable must have a destructive enforcer, and Reed delivers his physical threats in large amounts.

His appearance lends credibility to the work of The Vision, making the group no more a philosophical movement but an actual in-ring threat. Associating with Rollins provides Reed with a storytelling backdrop and the focus he has been missing.

Were he booked prudently, Reed would emulate the precedent of Batista in Evolution or Wardlow in The Pinnacle. A silent giant whose ultimate emergence as a force in single competition would be as natural and deserved as it would be anticipated.

Power and Presence are Realistic

Nowadays, when monster heels tend to be based on over-the-top antics, the secret of Reed is in realism. His blows appear to be hurtful, his hits are thunder-like, and his aggression is genuine. Each game narrates about a man who does not merely defeat his opponents but destroys them. WWE so badly needs that type of credibility in the upper midcard and further.

The Enforcer to Event Headliner

The ideal platform is now in the hands of Bronson Reed. He is as close to exploding as he has ever been, given The Vision to support his storyline. His ability in the ring has been demonstrated. An epic run through the WWE babyface could surely catapult him into either the Intercontinental or World Heavyweight Championship.

He does not require flashy promotions and gimmicks since his aura speaks it all. This regular stimulus may make him develop into the type of force that the fans have not witnessed since Kane or Umaga.
