God he really is Cena

 

[canadian crowe]

He's not denying it.

 

[Dante]

Tone deaf company giving us Cena 2.0

 

[iMax]

I like how they're framing that the booing was directed at Roman and not at the booking. Stay classy, Vince.

 

[ramoisdead]

Yep. Cena 2.0 promo.

 

[NYR]

Samoan Cena.

 

[Sou Da]

"Thanks Vince " - Roman Reigns

Is he not getting that he's a mediocore performer as well?

 

[abstract alien]

Lmao, I see we are all in agreement here

 

[Rawr Its Ry]

Does this mean we can get rapper cena back? :|

 

[Kusagari]

So he basically admits he was hand-picked.

lol wut is this

 

[TimeEffect]

Admits he's handpicked

Knows he doesn't capitalize

 

[Toki767]

So he acknowledges being the chosen one, but doesn't have a problem with it lol

 

[Jackson50]

Dude, you haven't delivered. And we don't want you in the deep end.

[Deleted member 47027]

This is pretty rough, but I can't help but laugh at Sephzilla tweeting #cancelwwenetwork religiously. Keep fighting the good fight pal.

 

[Officerrob]

I'm related to a bunch of famous wrestlers, please like me

 

[Ithil]

They pretty much just killed any chance of salvaging this. Now he's just Cena with long hair, the same old shit. That loses the male demographic right away.

 

[MegaKungFuRadio]

Did he just admit he was hand picked? Lol

I mean, it's insulting to deny it.

 

[BadAss2961]

Of course this company handles it the wrong way. lol

Reigns is ruined. Dude went from a badass to a underdog just happy to be there.

 

[T.A.L]

This is a kick in the dick if I ever saw one

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

No one gives a fuck about your family dawg!

They're giving Roman an unwinnable battle.....I feel for him.

 

[Kaiterra]

These sick fucks in ISW poured Legos in the ring.

 

[Talamius]

#PunkWasRight

 

[McNei1y]

I'm looking forward to better writing. but I can't win a royal rumble and get that to happen.

 

[Data West]

the classic "they paid their hard earned money and they can boo if they want! I RESPECT the fans"

Everybody is a critic. Every critic I’ve ever had, they weren’t wrestlers [laughs]. Every wrestler I’ve ever had critique me, they were always into my stuff or what I’m doing out there. For a non-wrestler, someone who doesn’t even know how to lock up, and if we did lock up, they wouldn’t know what to do, for them to critique any of us, it really does pop me.

Neat

 

[Sephzilla]

This is pretty rough, but I can't help but laugh at Sephzilla tweeting #cancelwwenetwork religiously. Keep fighting the good fight pal.

Lol. My phone always wants to insert that now after I type #RAW so I just figured I'd go with it

 

[HOMEBOY OVER HERE]

why did he say he was meeting brock lesnar face to face tonight?

 

[Fox318]

Man I feel like this guy needs a hug.

 

[UberTag]

I like how they're framing that the booing was directed at Roman and not at the booking. Stay classy, Vince.

Until fans start openly criticizing Vince in their chants they leave themselves open to having their disdain spun to suit whatever narrative they choose.

 

[illmatic22]

I don't hate the guy. But they've put him in a situation he isn't ready for.

 

[Vylash]

that's the good thing about the WWE Universe, they can cheer and boo whoever they want, i just love the noise

 

[Anth0ny]

CENA 2.0

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Sorry Roman. Should have begged to turn heel. Lesnar is more over than ever before after last night. It's gonna be rough.

 

[Heel]

Pre-taped segment passed of as live by adding faux technical difficulties such as mic hum and a blown segue to commercial break.

Not buying it, friends.

 

[Pavaloo]

This is literally the exact character as the nblue chipper that no one ever liked.


Well gee I'm happy to be here as I honor my wrestling family lineage

 

[Mengetsu]

God this is the future guys. Another Cena Clone. I hope HHH can relieve some of this the day he takes over.

 

[GQman2121]

This guy, like Cena, gives some perspective for someone who grew up in the 80's watching Ric Flair and Dusty Rhodes. How can you guys watch 50 hours of this every month?

 

[serenewarfare]

I legit think they just hung that motherfucker out to dry. He gave a response that won't solve anything, and then he basically admits he was handpicked.

 

[iMax]

Is this show being produced by interns or something?

 

[Cagey]

Of course this company handles it the wrong way. lol

Reigns is ruined. Dude went from a badass to a underdog just happy to be there.

Yep. They're shoving a bad MFer square peg in a happy go lucky round hole here. Are they afraid of having a bad ass as top dog for marketing purposes? It's the pattern everyone seems to fall into.

 

[MegaKungFuRadio]

why did he say he was meeting brock lesnar face to face tonight?

Fire the script supervisor!

 

[Fox318]

that's the good thing about the WWE Universe, they can cheer and boo whoever they want, i just love the noise

That's why we won't do TV in Seattle and Chicago

 

[Sephzilla]

Sorry Roman. Should have begged to turn heel. Lesnar is more over than ever before after last night. It's gonna be rough.

Yep. The heel champ is more over than the face challenger

 

[HOMEBOY OVER HERE]

did they say that interview was live?

they did

it was so obviously recorded. brock isn't even in the buiding tonight and reigns just said he is gonna meet brock face to face tonight.

that was recorded before raw was canceled

 

[Fox Mulder]

why did he say he was meeting brock lesnar face to face tonight?

Pre taped

 

[Chamber]

I'm legit interested to see how this Roman Reigns push works out long term. Right now I think he's the next Sheamus rather than the next John Cena.

 

[Queen of Hunting]

who was talking when cena announcement was on screen haha

 

[blackaroni]

Pre-taped segment passed of as live by adding faux technical difficulties such as mic hum and a blown segue to commercial break.

Not buying it, friends.

Follow the money friend.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Hmmm should we keep our heads down and focus on making reigns look strong and believable and more likeable by wrestlemania.....nah let's throw out za desperate cena 2.0 angle promo. That was straight embarrassing. Stop bringing so much attention to this guy at the worst times lol.

 

[Data West]

I'm legit interested to see how this Roman Reigns push works out long term.

Why?
