Notice how the former wrestlers who point out why Roman isn't getting over never blame the fans. :ohhh:

But yet people here think they know better. :pachaha:

Never understood that. Can't think of any other business that blames fans for not liking the product. :why:

It isn't just internet fans that don't like it, shyt no c*nt else even watches anymore but "internet fans". :hhh:

Roman Reigns has the absolute least amount of swag and charisma of anyone on the roster.

You can just look at the way dude dresses and how he come across in public that hes not that alpha male guy that Vince/HHH think he is and hes not able to fake it. In any other era, he'd just have a manager and go from there. A heel turn wouldnt do shyt for him

His superpush wasn't organic don't think that shyt can work in this era. They tried to make Sheamus a big star too early on as well shyt really didn't work out for anyone even Orton superpush flopped back in 04 those padded reigns don't mean much as far as drawing money.

They could've saved reigns after the suspension but Vince too stubborn

Booking wise, look at the orange fakkit thats in the White House now, people will follow winners. At least people that they perceive to be. WWE started going to the Cena contrived "overcoming the odds" bullshyt with Roman and made things alot worse. Roman was getting fine reactions all through 2014, he didnt lose and was gaining credibility. They gravely underestimated Daniel Bryan's popularity and placed Roman against him when Roman was still vulnerable as a face. Smart bookers would have just held back Bryan announcing he was back a few months and had his comeback match at Mania against (insert star name here). Common sense.

A heel turn would do everything for him, but not because it's the best decision for him.

In the IWC, the sweetest joy next to getting p*ssy is being right. They love feeling like they were right and will support anything that they've "predicted" or insisted upon. If Roman were to turn heel, the people that booed him would cheer him and the people that cheered him would still cheer him (a few might boo).

People would want to show they approve of the change so much that they'd cheer him and since it's hard to build a true, likeable (and interesting) babyface in this era (since good guys winning is cliche and, thus, "uncool"), we'd end up back in this cycle where they'd want his baby face adversary to go over, reign for a bit, then turn heel.

Facts :heh:

For all they "hate" about Roman the locker room is filled with guys who were handpicked FCW/OVW/Deep South guys that were dripped in gold for over a decade that they don't boo for no reason.

Ehh, everyone acts like him beating Sheamus got him over with the crowd

Wrong

All it really was was people glad Sheamus dropped the title

They were booing him damn near a week or two later

They turned on him when they announced he had to defend the title at the Rumble, entering at #1, knowing that this meant he would either win the Rumble from #1, or go into WM as the challenger and win the title for the third time in six months. Fans were never going to accept either scenario. They should've built a monster heel to challenge Roman at WM instead of having that worthless feud with Trips.

No. Fans like being entertained and not being force fed a babyface. People keep going back to blaming the fans. :upsetfavre:

As for the clips that were posted above from FCW, they really weren't that impressive. Those clips basically prove that he won't be a good heel.

You see those FCW videos of "the LeBron James of WWE?" He cant talk.
