Vince Russo defends Roman Reigns with a passion

[El Cocodrilo]

I'm a Roman Reigns fan and I do not believe he's ready either

Yeah it's a "fake" title, but you can still have that belt and flop. Or be totally lame and undeserving of it like The Miz.

yup

it's really that not roman isn't ready for the belt, really it's the belt that's not ready for roman. it would be devalued.

@ anyone who cosigns that shyt..

Reigns can’t “talk”. Really? And, Bob Backlund could? Do any of these curtain jerkers understand that Bob Backlund held the WWF title longer then even HULK HOGAN?

Yea Russo...fans back in 1979 sure did care about mic skills and promos.... You could get over with fans back in the day just by being a cookie cutter good guy. Wrong comparison...I should've stopped reading there...dude trying to shyt on the IWC yet he saying some pure neckbeard shyt..can't even make an articulate argument.

Not ready—please. What made Daniel Bryan ready, and not Roman Reigns? Because Bryan was more the “wrestler type”, and Reigns is more the “sports-entertainer”? That’s really what you’re trying to say . . . isn’t it? If so—then say it. Say that you’re a mark for grappling and rolling around on the mat, and Roman Reigns only has five moves. Because, in all honesty—that’s what you’re saying, and that’s what I’m hearing. But the fact of the matter is—the casual fans who represent the masses, want to see a WWE Champion WHO LOOKS THE PART. Not a guy who can “work” a fake wrestling match. Nobody outside of the Internet Wrestling Community cares about that—NOBODY. And, if the WWE starts catering strictly to the IWC . . . then they’re in even more trouble then it appears.

Bryan was by far the most popular guy with the crowds for the better part of a year...putting on the best matches,and his presence on screen excited the crowd. Russo acting like kids and parents don't like Bryan and don't buy his merchandise. Bryan was rivaling Cena in terms of popularity,and fukking had WWE being mentioned on ESPN.....dude had Rolling Stone articles and all types of fans legit pissed because he kept getting screwed. If you say only smarks like Bryan you can eat goat dikk and take this neg

Also "casual" and smark fan is so blurred nowadays...you have 11 year old kids who post on tumblr and shyt discussing wrestling...know it's fake....are they smarks?

Russo trying to shyt on smarks yet he comes off like a typical IWC neckbeard.

 

[R=G]

they're all sports entertainers now, that's the problem. they're not wrestlers anymore.

wrestlers wanna win the match, sports entertainers wanna put on a good show.

mr. perfect told you how he was gonna get in that ass, dolph ziggler just wants to "steal the show". when hogan challenged an opponent it was because he wanted to the title, when cena goes out there he just wants to give these a fan a show and have the best possible match.

you wanna know why the belt feel's so prestigious right now? because it currently sits around the waist of a WRESTLER.

It's not prestigious. It's unintentional comedy.

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

That "it's fake, who cares?" argument sucks.

"The reason is simple—NOT READY FOR WHAT? Not ready to win a fake Championship belt"

Is where i bailed. He STILL DOESNT UNDERSTAND that within the confines of THEIR UNIVERSE, and the show, wins/losses/champions MATTER.

I fukkin hate russo

 

[jadillac]

I read all of this in his voice.

Dude is clueless.

This is pretty simple, look at Bryans FIRST title reign. It failed. Either he wasn't ready or the WWE wasn't ready to push him, as a result the title run failed. It failed so bad that the E basically acted like he'd never won it before. By the time WM 30 rolled around, he was MORE than ready to be crowned with the belt.

Just like Austin was more than ready.to be crowned by WM 14

 

[AmericanDragon]

Give the title to babyface RR before he's established himself more and you BURY him. Roman is a future world champ no doubt but they're going kill him off before he's had time to cook if he beats Brock now. I mean it's always possibly that he builds up the momentum needed to take on Brock but I don't see it happening organically. Maybe I'm wrong? He could take a massive leap in the next few months and the fans could get behind him? With Bryan back I just don't see that happening. Roman is gonna become the guy that the company pushed down our throats in favor of the guy that was chosen by the fans and he's going to get a massive backlash for it. If they're intentionally trying to turn him heel than that's a different story...

Why does Russo hate "fake" wrestling so much? Everything he ever got was because of "fake" wrestling.

thats some garbage

theres a TOP of the card
MIDDLE of the card
and BOTTOM of the card

EACH has a title

The guys at the TOP of the card, PROBABLY SPENT TIME AT THE BOTTOM AND THE MIDDLE OF THE CARD, until they were over with fans and were ready to get to the TOP of the card

you cannot name a single superstar who bucked this thread in wrestling history besides the Giant, and TERITORRY superstars like hogan and The roadwarriors.

Was Steve austin 1993 ready to be at the top of the card? How about in 97?

 

[prophecypro]

Does this dummy not see Reigns aint over like that?

Make Reigns a heel again feud him with Daniel Bryan. Put him in actual storylines, make people care about the character. Either make him a heel who ploughs through fan favs in key storylines or develop him as a babyface with some adversity. He's had none of that as a solo competitor yet.

If not and you just push him into the Championship picture you get a Luger/Diesel situation again. Whats hard to see?

 

[prophecypro]

Russo angling for that job back in the WWE still

 

[R=G]

Reigns can win the belt...as heel. He hasn't done anything wrong to warrant hate...if someone came to u or me in his position, of course you want that easy groomed top spot. But you should have foresight to know u get the most out of that push as a heel.

With this line of thinking, I see why he put the WCW title on himself and David Arquette.
