    Why do people hate this Roman Reigns guy so much

    Why don't they just turn him heel?



    also who is taking the Undertaker -5000 again this year?

    Southpark did it best.... How they convince grown men to follow staged wrestling is BEYOND me...Brand recognition at its finest...salesman of the decade IMO....to even let your kids think that BS is real is beyond me as well...yeah start em out dumb...that will help

    I give them props from a Community Service prospective...they give of their time to charities, the military, and causes like no other group I've ever seen. They were always kind to the military folks and families when they were in the area...and Make a Wish Foundation

    Reigns is too dull to be main event material. The buildup to this WM is the most unexciting I can remember.

    He hasn't carried the load in his promos. Heyman has done the heavy lifting to make this match have any shot of delivering.

    Reigns also got hurt a while ago and I feel didn't do much to earn his momentum back. Just had it handed to him while guys like Ambrose carried RAW on their back every week.

    Lighten up man. Its just entertainment. Geez. Did you stop enjoying Xmas when you found out Santa wasn't real?

    All I say can say about Roman Reigns is I saw him at the last SummerSlam and all I could think as I watched his match was "this is the guy they're pushing? He needs more time to work on his gimmick and persona. Already seen like 2 or 3 dudes tonight who look more ready than him." penetrating Stephanie Mcmahon had a more entertaining match that night.

    Guessing he's still a generic boring face since people still don't want him to be champion.

    With Lesnar resigning with WWE, I think the plan of Reigns being a world champion might have been put on hold. Does anyone know if the odds changed much when Lesnar announced he was staying?

    I just checked 5 Dimes and it's +150 for Lesnar....-190 for Reigns
