That's another dilemma. I don't personally hate him, but I really haven't been given a reason to care about him either. The last couple of feuds he's been in, the other character have come off looking more appealing. Rusev is a huge example
Exactly. He's just there. He's just out there upstaging whoever he's in a program with and still showing no depth or growth of character since the shield split nearly 3 years ago. Still the same theme, still no evolving into his own identity or anything like that.

Roman is getting better but nowhere near worthy of all the attention they put on him. He goes over everybody. There is literally no reason Roman should have been the face in that Rusev feud. Rusev and Lana did nothing wrong and Roman attacked them yet WWE pushed Roman as the face of that feud while Rusev was treated as the heel by the announcers and WWE because Rusev is foreign. Roman almost always comes off as a dikk in feuds. But he doesn't have the personality of someone like Rock or Jericho to pull off being a dikk but massively cheered. He has cool moves but he lacks any type of character or personality to make me care about him.

He's basically John Cena 2.0 because that description fits Cena from start to finish.

People keep making this thread and the answer still hasn't changed.

He is boring.

He cannot talk, and at best he's a mid-card talent who is always forced down the viewers throats.

Look at last night, perfect example, 2 champions in the final segment, Shane in the segment and it all ends with the focus on Roman Reigns.

They have completely circled back to him, and guys like Owens have had their legs cut out from under him because of it.

Brehs can we legit ban the next person to make a Roman Reigns thread?

nikkas on here are legit trying to force Reigns on us like they're Vince
The shyt is perplexing to me to be honest.

How can you claim to be a fan of wrestling or even have the most rudimentary understanding of the business yet wonder why Roman is getting heat from the fans??

He's not as talented as other performers and its clear the company is forcing him down our throats.

This isn't even a "neckbeard" thing breh most of fans don't like Roman Reigns
