So we're going to act like when he came back after doing that movie, he wasn't hogging the spotlight on RAW consistently for weeks, huh? He was given MANY chances, but didn't live up to the hype. This is before they started booking him into a goofball
This is a bunch of contrived b/s because you're invested in your boy Reigns.
"Hogging the spotlight."

There's more to that roster than Roman Reigns, who a lot of his fans seem to be becoming more & more infatuated with the closer we get to the Rumble and the more it seems like he may not be winning in Philly on the 25th.
Ambrose, not Rollins or Reigns, was the most over out of that trio after the split.
He was getting the reactions that they needed desperately for Reigns to get.
Dean took everyone by surprise because no one expected him to build that sort of rapport as a babyface.
It wasn't until after the brass had him squirting ketchup and mustard, OD'ing on the "I'm crazy," schtick, working with mannequin dummies, and losing every feud and match, that his momentum began to wane.
The revisionist history is hilarious.
All the way down from Bryan to now Dean, you've been downplaying and piling on.
As much potential as your boy Roman has, he'd be fortunate to connect a fraction as much with the fans organically as the two aforementioned.
Even with the ridiculous segments and losses, fans are
still backing Dean.
The fact of the matter is that he was objectively better suited to be in the title picture than Reigns was.
He may not be as pretty to you, but Dean was objectively more over, a better worker, and a better talker after that split.
That isn't an opinion - that's a fact.
