The fans were loving Roman until Daniel Bryan came back
Fans turned on him for no reason

This is what Roman haters never want to mention. Roman was by far the most popular member of Shield. Crowds didn't turn on him until they realized he was going to get the WM slot over Bryan, when Bryan was physically unable to be trusted in the first place. Then you couple that with the Punk/Cabana podcast about 2 months before the Rumble, and suddenly enough people had turned on Roman to tank the next year and a half for him. All because he wasn't Danny Bryan. Once shyt catches on on TV, it spreads everywhere.

And they are STILL mad at Roman for getting the push over Bryan, when Roman getting picked over him was proven to be the right choice not even a month after WM.

Fans don't even make sense
If Bryan fought Brock at wrestlemania he'd be paralyzed right Now
They giving him Batista treatment for no reason

All facts. I really hate the fact some people (a lot of them who posted in this thread) need CM Punk to form their opinions for them.

The same CM Punk who hates the same smark fans he created and immediately left behind.

Do you guys know what happened two months before the pipe bomb? The fukking ROCK came back. But that got overshadowed by the night that ruined the business forever.

Pipebomb into Bryan's Push into the Colt pod and the failure of the Shield as singles guys (the numbers say so not me) was a deadly combination. Vince is only catering to smarks because quite frankly, he has to. There are no big names left on a full time basis and the smarks are the ones filling those arenas and buying the network to watch these indy guys.

And the best part of the Punk's "make Roman look strong" thing is that it literally had nothing to do with Roman. It was a commentary on WWE creative/Vince, not Roman. Yet smarks ran with that shyt and put it 100% on Roman, as if he somehow has been booking himself this whole time. That whole meme started from wrestling fans being to fukking stupid too realize he was insulting the writers.

It simply amazes me how nikkas can sit behind their computer screen and say shyt like this :heh:

how do you know this? how do you come to this conclusion? of course he's put the fukkin work in to get there

Look at Roman. Like a previous poster said, he has the look of a champion and it was obvious that they were gonna put the belt on him and market him as ethnic John cena, that's why he's in the spot he's in. I said he put in little work because he was pushed to the moon before he was ready or proven.

He was Main eventing ppvs within his first 3-4 years of wrestling. Compare that to a guy like Balor, who probably wouldn't even gotten a look at, let alone a main event push 6 years ago, and he's been doing this for 16 years. Roman had it easy

It wasnt the right choice because Ziggler and Ambrose were more backed by fans over Reigns. They had Bryan tossed out like 5 minutes after his return..lomg before he got reinjured. It was done to show the audience he was lesser than Wyatt and Roman too. Roman came in dominating and looking unstoppable..lol. Crazy booking. If Roman was truly over, Bryan wouldnt have made a difference.

Dean was definitely not the more backed dude when Roman beat Bryan. Dean's overness really didn't start happening until fans started turning on Roman's push.

Lesnar wrestles very stiff
Bryan is small and fragile and would need to take about 15 suplexs on his neck lol
You do the math

This.

Plus people act like Bryan didnt lose feeling in his arm in the middle of a match on Smackdown with Orton. I would have loved for dude to get a long title reign but its obvious between that and dropping the WWE a couple months after Mania that he was in way worse condition than people want to believe.

Lesnar doesn't injure people except you know, he broke three of Jamie Noble's ribs last year on Raw, lol.

The booking of Bryan in that Rumble was absolutely criminal though, but the whole booking was terrible, they had fukking Big Show and Kane in the final four thinking that it would help get Roman cheered instead of understanding that nobody wanted to see those two anywhere near the final four.:francis:

If Brock wanted to work with Bryan, it would have happened

Pretty obvious he didn't think he was worthy enough, also probably understands the "yes" chant was more over than the wrassler
