Okay, it's that part of the week again! It is now time to rate another current superstar. I'd like to thank all of you for participating in last week's thread. Remember that all of your votes DO matter, but please just try to be objective. Let's also try to get as many responses here as possible now, and PLEASE try to vote on my polls :eek:

Randy Orton ended up being ranked at 3rd place in the current section so far. Unfortunately for Orton, the ratings for his mic skills hurt him slightly. However, the Legend Killer did receive a great score for his look/presence. It turns out that Orton now has the 2nd highest score for having the best look/presence compared to the rest of the current talents.

Here are the updated standings:

Current:

Bryan Danielson: 8.7 (Look/Presence 7.6, In-Ring Ability 9.7, Charisma 8.9, Mic Skills 8.4)
BD: 8.5 (7.4, 9.6, 8.8, 8.2)
Edge: 8.5 (Look/Presence 8.2, In-Ring Ability 8.2, Charisma 8.7, Mic Skills 8.9)
Randy Orton: 8.5 (Look/Presence 9.3, In-Ring Ability 8.4, Charisma 8.4, Mic Skills 7.9)
Brock Lesnar: 8.4 (Look/Presence 10.0, In-Ring Ability 8.8, Charisma 8.6, Mic Skills 6.2)
E: 8.3 (8.2, 8.0, 8.4, 8.7)
RO: 8.3 (9.0, 8.2, 8.2, 7.7)

Adam Page: 7.3 (Look/Presence 7.4, In-Ring Ability 7.9, Charisma 7.6, Mic Skills 6.4)
AP: 7.2 (7.3, 7.8, 7.4, 6.2)

Women:

Charlotte Flair: 7.9 (Look/Presence 8.6, In-Ring Ability 8.5, Charisma 7.3, Mic Skills 7.1)
CF: 7.6 (8.3, 8.1, 7.2, 6.8)

Today we will rate Roman Reigns since he won the previous poll. This is your turn to vote. Make sure to keep up!

Please set each quality in this order (Look/Presence, In-Ring Ability, Charisma, Mic Skills), so it'll be easier to count your votes :)

NOTE: I'm willing to count late votes from my 2022 threads throughout this year. HOWEVER, please try not to do it too often because I'm REALLY not particularly fond of counting late votes in my free time; ESPECIALLY from June onwards since my series really begin to pick up in the 2nd half of the year. I'll probably be more forgiving for the 1st half of this year though. Plus, please do NOT spam my older rating threads all at once too. Anyway, my rankings are based off the MOST UPDATED standings. The MORE votes that are included to ALL of this, the MORE accurate the results will be. PLEASE MAKE SURE TO VOTE ON MY POLLS TOO :D

Edit: Don't forget that the poll is MULTIPLE CHOICE.

I’ve barely seen any of his work since I stopped watching WWE regularly around 2016.

WWE’s incessant pushing of him put me off.
He really isn’t anything special.

Oh yeah, if I was rating Roman from 2016 my stuff would be a lot lower outside of his look which has always been good. He definitely always looked the part. He's been putting on some of his best work & matches, plus his promo ability has shot up.

Promo ability has always been there. They finally just stopped pigeonholing him with stupid shit like “Suffering Succotash”

Roman cut the best heel promo of 2017 by simply saying 5 words.

That is still one of my favourite segments.

Yeah, that's definitely true too. They gave him some terrible material when they were trying to get him over as a babyface.

He was best when he had his edge for sure, the heel turn just let him finally achieve his full potential.

But I think when him and Cena met back up again, it was obvious he's come leaps & bounds in the mic department. He felt a lot more confident, due to his current role and whatnot.

Cena murdered him in their first exchange but you can definitely tell Roman was feeling himself this last time around. That missionary position line got people talking and they ran with it for weeks

Had they turned him heel a long time before they did, I might have stuck around.

From what I have seen of his heel work, it has been pretty good.
But the bridge was already burned and only because he had matches with Cena, Bryan and Edge, he kind of pulled me back in.
