How do you guys suggest Rome improve his promo skills if he never speaks? You don't become proficient at a weakness by running away from it.
The silent thing works but it has a ceiling. Sting was able to pull it off for a year because the NWO angle was one of the best written and hottest storylines if all time.
Goldberg was able to sustain his momentum for a time because he was a physical specimen and one of the most intense performers in the history of the business.
Reigns won't be always be able to get away with just showing up, scowling, and kicking ass.
It'll work momentarily, but you're not becoming the man of anything if you can't cut a promo.
He absolutely needs to talk if he wants to improve on it. If he's just going to be a main event guy, then fine.
He can simply be a man of few words. But they want this man to be the man.
He has to become adept on the microphone, or they have to move in amother direction. It isn't negotiable if you're going to be the top guy for a substantial period of time.
