Could possibly be four in a row?:sas1:

Don't forget the start of the "make Roman strong campaign", when he eliminated nearly half the field during the 2014 rumble. :sas2:

No one was complaining back then because no one had an issue with Roman being built as the next star until that got in the way of their desired Bryan push.

People need to stop with the Roman slander for real. Dude is undone by bad booking decisions and that's it. He is a legit top guy but Vince is obsessed with him being Cena 2.0 when he should be everything bu that.
Isn't the slander directed at his booking and management though?


Anyone hating him personally can :camby:

I really do believe it's the total opposite. People are fukking salivating to cheer for him but because of the mostly bad booking and going along with what every one else is doing, they've been conditioned not to.

I don't want heel Roman to be cheered. I think that's gonna be fukking stupid. But he should've BEEN a tweener.

I can see that too but I'm seriously having a hard time remembering (please help:sadcam:) a guy that struggled due to being overpushed as a babyface that was able to bring the crowd back around as a heel with the same super push. It seems like people want to hate him, but I feel like it's due to exhaustion.

yall nikkas stay trying so fukking hard.. the royal rumble was ruined the moment we realized the only people left to enter were lesnar, goldberg, taker, and a few other stars that didnt come out yet.. regardless of who came out at 30.. samoa joe or finn balor coming out at 30 instead of reigns would not have made the shyt any better

undertaker had to get eliminated by somebody, and rand wizard wouldve won regardless.. roman reigns was the furthest from the fukking problem

Bottom line, Roman is a victim of branding and being booked way too fukkin' earnest. He got some lowkey funny idiosyncrasies, but somehow the E stuck him with whoever wrote dialogue for The Great Khali. Catchphrases aren't his thing. In fact, any form of repetitive dialogue isn't what he's about. I thought the elimination of the Undertaker was a good spot, with him staring down at Mark, looking like Lil Taker jr, calling that ring HIS yard. Many of us been screaming he just need to be a straight killa, no attempted thrilla.

They need to run a kidnapped angle, where Roman is taken by the dark forces, and repackaged as Undertaker's chosen successor, like the storyline I came up with for my CAW Diablo in WWF: Attitude :laugh: He'd be better with a tombstone than spear, anyway.
