This is the most engaged and excited I've seen the WWE fans on here in a while. I understand that this turn doesn't work without having him be a face for an extended period, but why did they wait so long on a story like this? This seems like it's one of those stories that would've been printing money with crowds.

Roman should be called the High Chief now. :wow:

The authenticity of them using real 'ula fala, the red lei, after his win. :banderas:

He should always come out with that around his neck.

"ula fala is worn on a Matai (Chief) who are the heads of their families representing their villages, communities and districts. They are the important high ranking title holders."

I'm ready for him to go on a complete power trip that makes the whole family afraid of him. Then we eventually get to him burying Dwayne at WM...I'm tempted to say squash but that wouldn't be as meaningful. That's how good this storyline is and can be, Rock was my favorite and I want Roman to body him.

Yea I’ll say, I get what all Roman was doing last night, but man...the first match where he was right on Jey and just beating the living dog shyt out of him...that scene and visual made him look more dangerous.

And honestly, when Jimmy dipped in this time, he acted almost exactly how he acted last time (after acting a lil’ tougher on SD on Friday). I did like the ending tho.

Supposedly the Usos will join reluctantly at first then completely fall in line. Gonna get the Tag belts at some point too
Acting?

what acting??
:ohhh:

Bryan GOAT level in ring talent and in the creative room :wow:

There's been a great character in Roman Reigns for years, They just had to wait until Vince was done using him as a pawn in his love/hate relationship with the audience.

I mean - they gave the guy blue contact lenses, to make him look more White, I guess. Sounds like he became more compelling when they 'let him be himself' in every sense of the phrase.

Jimmy last night kinda was supporting Roman with him telling him everything can be cool if you just talk to us we got you leading to Roman hitting the :sadbron:....:demonic: to that victory. Storyline wise Jimmy probably will fall in line easy while Jey needs his spirit broken match by match until he assimilates.
Gonna have Jey out here like

Tried to coronate him too much.

The thing with this story tho...this timing on it is absolutely perfect to me. With how the Usos are over, with him returning from a covid break and all, everything is kind of in the best possible place. I kinda think it would've been a harder sell if he turned out of nowhere while he was being booked as strong as he was(he was on pace to spear Oldberg to hell at Mania before Big Rona came thru).
