Some people think "good on the mic" means you go out and give some dark Mankind type of promo or some smarky Punk overrated "pipebomb". "Good on the mic" can come in different forms. Roman's promos right now are perfect for what the character is. And for what anybody thinks he lacks in tradition in-ring monologue promos he makes up for with the backstage vignettes interacting with the Usos and Paul.

According to some if you don't say shyt a bunch of times or flip people off it's not a good promo these days. :heh:

it's some look the part shyte

but truth is he's goldberg for this era i said it before

the general crowd just accepts it because the presentation & push is right

the most corporate manufactured run of all time¿

you’re right, Roman is a great wrestler, but he’s not that guy no matter how hard they want to push him.. John cena proved it this summer when he roasted Roman’s whole life with that quick “bars of soap for teeth” Line :mjlol: that Roman had no good comeback to, and that was just a throwaway for cena.. Even the Miz and New day were able to go toe to toe with John cena, but Roman can’t, let alone with the rock, who some cats on here think is the only one good enough to beat Roman :mjlol:

Roman’s ceiling is being the heel counterpart to “the guy” like triple h in the attitude era, the only problem is that roman has no rock/austin to play off of, it could be big e, but they don’t want to go in that direction right now for some dumb ass reason..

the true “face” of the wwe right now especially considering the current political climate should be the Disney star Sasha banks herself, who can click as a face or heel and still be cool/have an edge, unlike Roman who has yet to click as a face..

I dunno breh

On one hand I agree with you that Sasha is the biggest star in the company and should be treated/pushed as such.

But it looks like they’re slow burning a Roman face turn with Paul turning on him for Brock. I think tribal chief as a face will easily be over with the fans.

I guarantee you that the majority of people here didn't even remember that until you brought it up, the most memorable line during that whole feud was Reigns "Missionary position" line. Cena being the insecure person he is immediately went the burial route and it still didn't work. You say Roman isn't the guy but he's been getting the biggest reactions for over a whole year, and he's selling the most merchandise in the company right now.

roman rose to his current position behind a corporate push

they simply force fed the crowd until enough sheep sipped the cool-aid

it wasn't a classic match classic promo etcetera

they created the propaganda of him being the top guy without him actually being the top guy

just look at the difference in booking around the two champs

they book big.e like a struggle champion even though he's the one that is showing cultural relevance

it's something off in the way they handle things it's like if you are not a corporate product they wanna nerf your potential

like how they are tryna bury bianaca currently

:mjpls: :sas2:

they on some shyte..........
