It's so simple, that I'm sure they won't do it.

All they have to do is feed him to Cena.

I know, I know, Cena "buries" people, but he wouldn't bury Roman in this scenario.

You let Roman be the voice of the fans who are tired of Cena.

No, you don't have to turn him heel. You make him a "tweener".

In this scenario, Reigns and Cena are teamed against Seth Rollins & say. . . Big Show or Kane or something in a Raw match.

You have Roman handling business doing all of the work, then have Cena come in and do his "5 or 6 moves of doom" taking all the glory away from Roman.

Now, Roman is looking incredulous, which is one of the things he does really well, with that "Man, you gotta be kidding me" look that he does and he doesn't give Cena dap after finishing off Rollins/Show/Kane or whatever.

You have him cut a promo on Cena about how he's tired of Cena always having to steal the spotlight and hog all the glory and tell him that the fans are tired of him too.

The fans AUTOMATICALLY are on Reigns' side because all of their hatred of Reigns comes from the fact that they hate John Cena and don't want Reigns to be Cena 2.0. Once it's apparent that Reigns despises how Cena does shyt, the fans automatically are marking out because finally somebody's telling Cena the truth about how much of an a$$hole he is.

This becomes a good feud, with neither guy really "good" or "bad", but this becomes all about Reigns trying to push Cena out the game and voicing "smark" frustrations to Cena.

This is even a situation where feeding Roman TO Cena might even help Roman because fans know everything's predetermined and they'd look at it as Cena holding another young wrestler down with backstage politics to "make him look strong"

Reigns automatically becomes a face by virtue of being against Cena and losing, but he's not a heel because he's not out taking our Daniel Bryan or somebody, he just hates Cena, which most others do too.

He becomes a sympathetic figure by this point and I think the fans would be more willing to accept him taking out Seth at say . . . Summerslam. Then as soon as Roman wins at Summerslam have him call out Cena again as the Heavyweight Champ and have him FINALLY go over CLEAN on Cena, vanquishing Cena back down to the mid-card.

Cena would NEVER agree to ANY of this :russ:


which is the worst part. idk why vince doesn't go toe to toe with cena. at least that we know of. we have seen others take their ball and go home. would cena have the balls to do that.

he already has much more clout over his brand. what does putting over(without having to go back and recover that win within a month maybe wait a while) do negatively to a guy like cena. he will never be the rock or hogan outside the E so it really doesn't matter

Exactly, it really wouldn't do much to Cena at all.

He'd get to beat Roman first at say their first pay-per-view match.

The crowds already hate the guy, so what would him say losing in a Raw match the night after Summerslam do to him?

Plus, we all know Cena would be back eventually anyway.

sounds like reigns would just be cm punk 2.0, just not as good on the mic

but yea... he'd probably rack up some sympathy from the smarks just for being pitted against cena.

Didn't they already do this scenario briefly? :patrice:I remember both Cena and Roman being in a Fatal 4 Way match for the title and for some of the hype they were trolling by having Roman say "Yall know Cena sucks right?" and the crowd was like :bryan:

Cena would be cheered over Reigns...smarks would sniff this one out real fast... they both are average in the ring but at least Cena can talk and has put in a decade+ of work. ..fans would purposely go overboard for cena.

The only way it would work is for reigns to stand between cena and championship win #16 .... nobody wants to see that. ... but if it's any other scenario, fans would overwhelmingly cheer cena

Cena has been forced to back down several times..Batista Summerslam 08...Survivor Series 2011..he got herbed like no other main eventer in history. Took that RB and just hightailed it out of there.

Roman was still pretty over then. He didn't stop being over until they teamed him and Cena up, which is my point.

Had he stayed the course of being anti-Cena, he'd still be over.

Nah, nobody's more hated than Cena.

They don't hate Roman. They hate that he's being turned into the next Cena, who they actually hate. If he completely reverses course or at least had stayed the bad ass post-Shield Roman who looked like he might have a real beef with Cena, we wouldn't be having this issue.

The Miz isn't believable as a bad ass.

He's a clown.

He was a clown on "The Real World" and like it or not, that's always gonna be a part of how he's seen

Roman Reigns is a bad ass in real life.

He was a bad ass defensive lineman at Georgia Tech

He was THE bad ass in The Shield.

Let him be THE bad ass and really give Cena the business if you want to get him over.

I believe Roman went to alternative school as well for fights and his aggression nature when he was young, dude is an undercover goon. :birdman:
