***ROMAN REIGNS APPRECIATION THREAD***

[SmarkMero]

I though people said Reigns was the weakest out of the group.

They didn't believe

 

[Rarely-Wrong Liggins]

This is a classic case of the TSC getting ahead of themselves.

What makes Reigns a big deal? Serious question. Ring work, mic work......larger than life presence? One thing that benefits Reigns is the aura of the Shield. It's a good look and he's definitely getting the rub from it. Now, what will happen if and when he turns face though...... I don't see him making a smooth transition. Too easy to get lost in the shuffle.

Reigns is my guy. Dude is going to have every single hoe soaking wet

Agreed. I don't see his transition to a face role going well at all (not now anyway). His mic work thus far has consisted of nothing but Horatio Caine-like one liners. They need to atleast help him improve there first, before they send him out to the ring to cut some 10 minute anti-Shield promo, leading him into a 2-on-1 handicap match that you know Vince is to do.

I enjoy watching these spears as much as everyone else, but I don't understand the rush to break up these guys. Rather watch them hold all the gold as a group.

Reigns is just one of those dudes who looks the part. He has the *it* factor. He looks badass, and has great presence in the ring. If he can nail some promos he'll be golden.

Plus, Samoan Excellence.

i appreciate wwe having an idea of who they want to focus on post-cena but don't strap a rocket to his ass for him to fumble the ball or even worse the crowd sees the favoritism and turns on him (cena part 2) a slow burn would work best for him (slow burn meaning a steady push up the midcard gaining experience and working within the shield and without them). They could use the Usos, The Rock and the WWE Performance Center as mentors and resources for him (and Tamina for that matter). Anyone who can reach main event level should be a blessing for WWE and they shouldn't use outdated modes of thinking (lolmidget) to squander potential moneymakers. WWE works best when the midcard AND main events are strong not just the main event.

Also I don't think they should abandon Rollins and Ambrose as a result of Reigns' rise. It would be a serious crime for Ambrose and Rollins to get left behind in the dust after all the goodwill they had this year. IMO The Shield is Wrestler(s) of the Year for 2013 and they are three major players for the future. Slow and steady pushes for all three benefits everyone: management (Reigns' look) smarks (Ambrose's quirks) and the live audience (Rollins' moveset).

just my two cents

 

[daemonova]

he played ball at Georgia tech and was named first-team All-ACC his senior year.

 

[TheWhackMamba]

All i can say for the man is he has landed two of the hardest spears I have ever seen, both in the last 48 hours.

He just about killed Fatty Mc Rey Rey and the spear delivered to CM Punk was fukken GODLIKE!





I'm beginning to think Roman Reigns is whaths best fo bithneth

Reigns vs Bryan in the main event of WM 32? Hmmmm....nah. He would need vast improvement to be able to handle that kind of mic work and what not on that level to sell WM.

Ambroise will be alright..his mic time has been cut but the more he talks, the more fans are gonna get behind a guy like that. So it's only opportunities that's making him seem lesser than he really is at this time and point. Somebody has to do the money promo to get Reigns out of the Shield.

Is EVERYBODY doing the "Bandarez" now?

 

[True Blue Moon]

Romans definitely seems like he's more comfortable now than ever. I peeped how when they were at the top of the ramp after fukking up Punk, Ambrose kept walking, but Reigns called him back so that they could get some more camera time to sell the story.

 

[puppetmaster]

I still want them to take their time, it still feels a little too soon to pull him away from the cloak of the Shield. That faction hides his negatives extremely well while boosting his positives, dude comes across like the wrong dude to fukk with period right now because he's all action little talk

That slow burn Batista had when he finally got sick of HHH's shyt and snapped on him is similar to what Roman and Dean Ambrose can have



-P-

 

[thevarangian]

This is a world class fukking spear right here. There hasn't been a spear this good since Goldberg.
