I mean he isn't a bad guy. He isn't a good guy either, but he is the guy. I think we can all agree on that right?

I wonder why he isn't a heel already. "The guy" is pretty much born to be boo'd.

he routinely was protected and given countless opportunities while showing average wrestling ability, shit mic skills, etc
so many wrestlers who can do both better than him: cesaro miz rollins Big E owens rusev etc reigns (at the end of the shield) is more comparable to someone like jinder mahal. pushed down our throats for months, constantly protected, not good wrestling/promos, etc. Difference is that mahal was a heel so it was okay to boo him. But imagine if jinder was a face and years later he was still a face who only got a bit better and now he relies on saying bitch to get himself over? fuck that. If regins doesn't turn heel at WM and beat the living shit out of lesnar, its gonna be a huge let down until someone beats him (hopefully soon) :( |
|
Anyone who says that Roman is "average" in the ring is either jaded or stupid.
The guy is one of the most consistent workers the company has. He never really has a "bad" match and while he isn't Seth, Finn, AJ or KO he damn sure is better in the ring than fucking Big E and Rusev. He makes his opponents look FANTASTIC, can get a great ME match out of damn near anybody and has been healthy and willing/able to do mainstream media for the WWE. What the hell else would you want out of your "guy"?

Reigns has yet to evolve from the shield. Still uses the gear (fuck the body armour, how are we supposed to believe half the shit he takes hurts?), still uses (and has ruined) the theme. Still uses the catchphrase. Seth and Dean evolved, so why can't he?

I said he's a better wrestler, not better on the mic. He has a job specifically because of family, and was brought up with two vets to cover for how green he was. He's getting there, and if he can deliver consistent promos like he did last week, I'll start buying in, but he very much has this vibe of being hand picked to be "the guy" despite doing nothing to really earn that spot. They tried to do that with Rocky Maivia, and the crowds turned on it.. and luckily Rock found a way to shine when he went heel and just cut loose. Roman is like if Rocky never changed course and we got years and years of "The Blue Chipper" whether we liked it or not. I know that WWE has changed how they do things, but I remember a time when the most over guy got pushed to the title, as opposed to picking a dude, throwing a title on him and hoping that gets him over. The most over Roman ever was before his mega push was his ability to not be Batista in the Royal Rumble. |

Because people are upset that their favorite isn't the FOTC. I'm not a Reigns fan myself but there isn't really a better option besides maybe Rollins that is marketable and can carry the show.
People are also upset that he is a WWE guy and doesn't have years of doing flips in bingo halls and flea markets on his resume. The guy has done nothing but improve. He's gone from being criticized and getting "you can't wrestle chants" to being one of the better workers in the company. From having horrible promos to being serviceable on the mic.

Let's not pretend like he's a bumbling botch machine in the ring who can't have a good match with the right person.

People over think this kind of thing. The reason he's booed is the same reason people hate boy bands, or pop country, popcorn flicks, and games chasing the MOBA, Minecraft or PUBG model.
Because there's a blatant objective to it done with utmost sterilization. It's made to be consumable. It's made very obviously by a team of people with a flow chart of marketable traits and they assemble together some Frankenstein monster of buzz worthy features into this clinically edgy shape. People hate Roman because he's a product. And for the better part of his career he didn't seem totally invested in it himself.

I think what I'm seeing here is that people don't believe Roman Reigns can beat Brock Lesnar and that makes them angry that he is going to wrestle him. What you guys don't realize is that Roman can, and I personally believe he will, beat Brock Lesnar. You guys just need to believe in him.

Reigns makes for a good punching bag with mediocre strength (despite his size) and a very boring and limited moveset. He's lucky that every match he's in has this innate tension because everyone knows about the backstage politics/push. That's partly why his opponents look good.

Has a better ha among of who he is as a wrestler and a character with a developed moveset. Can carry great matches by himself and put on beautiful work with masters. Cesaro is better or just as good as Roman in any way. I don’t know if he’s “the guy” material but I don’t even know if roman is.

He was actually getting over after the Shield split up.
 Problem was that he got injured after a mediocre feud with Orton, and the company made sure you didn't forget about him with all those pre-taped "via satellite" promos, the worst one being at TLC where he forgot his lines. THAT'S where the hate started. The Royal Rumble that he won was the climax, where he won despite having zero build-up, and there were 3 other options who were over (Bryan, Ziggler, and Ambrose).

You could argue that Nakamura's time in NXT built him up as a singles star more than Reigns, who spent about 3 (healthy) months away from the Shield before the Rumble. If Reigns hadn't gotten injured and they had more time to build his character, he would've gone over a lot better.
Also, I hate it when people say that he gets booed for not being Daniel Bryan. Nobody would have had a problem if say, Dean Ambrose won the Rumble and Seth Rollins cashed in the briefcase later that night, because those two had a very entertaining feud earlier that didn't really have a satisfying ending. Heck, people would have been fine with Dolph Ziggler winning, because he was hot after Survivor Series/the Luke Harper feud.Scott Brooks employment tracker: still employed

NXT = /= main roster that's stretching and you know it. NXT is development and nothing more. This last year Nakamura has done NOTHING. Only thing kinda important is beating Cena and Orton in throwaway TV matches. Reigns has beat them both on ppv where it matters. But Nakamura "deserves it" and reigns doesn't. It's hypocritical as ****
As for rumble year before he was cheered in rumble. Hebron and most were bitching Bryan lost. The they'd be okay if is BS. They were going to boo anyone not Bryan. His fans were toxic. They did same to Batista and now constantly beg him to return.Signature, What's that?ssjmole posted...NXT = /= main roster that's stretching and you know it. NXT is development and nothing more.

Eh, WWE has sorta made NXT canon now (like they did in the Kevin Owens vs John Cena feud), so his NXT career does matter whether or not the majority of the crowd watches it. Not saying that's how it should be, but that's just how it is.

The 2014 Rumble was different. His character hadn't really been overexposed yet, and the Shield was one of the hottest acts in the company. The year after that though, it's pretty silly to say "anyone would've been booed". DBry was the favorite for sure, but Ambrose and Ziggler were also over, and people booed the way they got eliminated. People didn't boo because Daniel Bryan lost. They booed because Roman Reigns won.Scott Brooks employment tracker: still employed

Sorta but not really they mentioned fcw too and reigns was in both. People are desperately trying to make out Nakamura was somehow a completely different situation. Fact is main roster done nothing and was teaming with Orton a good chunk of the year or loosing to Jinder. The fact is WWE wants us to like reigns so people will find excuses to hate or boo him. Like reigns messes up promo = terrible mic skills , say that about Nakamura and its "he doesn't need words he oozes charisma" it's laughable
I'm not even a reigns fan I just think it's a joke how this board treats him. Like raw raiting go down a little "reigns isn't a draw lol" SD goes down and "it's the writers , AJ and Nakamura are totally draws!"Signature, What's that?ssjmole posted...koalabear9301 posted...

The fact was he wasn't Bryan so fans made up reasons that they won't use elsewhere.
The fans turned on Roman when it became obvious that he was hand picked to become the next big star of the company. Letting him keep the Shield gear and theme while Seth and Dean had to start fresh, and the satellite promos while he was out rubbed people the wrong way. But it became blatantly obvious when he was handed Superstar of the Year despite missing a third of it.
At that point, fans saw his manufactured push for what it was and turned on him. Things got progressively worse at the Rumble, where it was painfully obvious that they attempted to book the entire match in a way that would have Daniel Bryan eliminated early and generate maximum sympathy for Reigns en route to his inevitable victory. They even brought the Rock out to shore up support, and the fans still shit all over it.
Everything that has happened since over the last three years has resulted from this horrible mismanagement and refusal to change plans. And it's a shame, because Roman really isn't a bad performer and I believe that his face main event run could have been salvaged had they started fresh when he returned from injury to start 2015, and let him work his way back to the main event naturally, with a world title victory at either Summerslam or WrestleMania 32.Are people still trying to say it was just Bryan when the fans turned on roman specifically before the match was over?
That’s factually untrue anyway. As I said, people were already talking about making roman look strong before the rumble.

PSN: UnderratedgemI think I get why fans hate Roman Reigns. It's because he beat Undertaker at Wrestlemania. The haters need to get over that, there is always a 50% chance you lose in a 1on1 contest and Undertaker is old and to broken down to hang with the big dog. He put up a hell of a fight for a man his age but its just what happens when an old lion meets a young lion. It was a fair fight that Roman Reigns won, that shouldn't make people hate him.
