I still don't understand how someone who "Champions" Indie wrestling
can be a supporter of the WWE's "Corporate/Business" Chosen Guy.
Or...is it the whole "Liking what everyone else hates" mentality?
God...I hope that doesn't end up working for Hitler...
I mean it hurts my brain just thinking about it...
Oh No...I have another nose bleed...

Reigns has all the talent in the world to be the actual face of the company. And by all rights he should be, he has the looks AND the skills to bring him to that position, not to mention all the other stuff he has going for him. If Roman were to quit WWE today and show up at Evolve or ROH or NJPW next week, he would be amongst the top liked guys in a matter of months, if not weeks. It's WWE's most-of-the-time-nonsensical booking that makes him as hated as he is, that paired with both the "anti-establishment" and "cheer the heels" mentality that most modern fans seem to thrive off of. I am not a fan of the indies just to "go against the grain" I'm a fan because guys are allowed to actually showcase all of their skills, be it in or out of the ring.
The major booking problem they have done with Roman is not giving him any character development.
Roman is what I like to call the "CJP that never was and probably never will be." Much like CJP, he has all the skills and looks to be a major star, but without proper chardev he will never amount to anything. With how much WWE has invested into him, be it time money etc, they have almost no choice at this point to write things for him that finally build to something or actually make sense, and I am willing to give them that time to correct their past mistakes. Much like how people started finally putting Cena over as a great worker once he started wrestling the indie darlings with the US challenge, even though he was great before that, they will eventually find something for Roman that will showcase what he is able to do and have him be loved for it. Hopefully it is sooner rather than later, as seemed to be the case for Cena
I have issues across the board so I am going to continue to kick, whine, and throw toys at my mom in Walmart because it just isn't entertaining to me. If I don't complain, then I wouldn't be here talking about wrestling at all at this point lol I get why people would be happy with this but to me, they had a few wasted opportunities to get him over as a solid heel and they pissed it away.
Just make sure it's not my Walmart. I have more than enough to clean up after with our unruly ungrateful heathen customers trashing my store
