Roman Reigns should just become Swoll Eric Andre and steal his madness.

These NXT promos are the most confident I've ever seen Roman on the mic. Must be main stage jitters or something
its having his promos written word for word in a style that doesn't suit him
He worked best as the exclamation mark to an Ambrose and/or Rollins promo. Short and sweet, baby gurl. That entire run with the Shield was them masking Reigns' weaknesses.
Now that he's alone, we can see that he can't really wrestle, and he sure as hell can't cut a 1 minute+ promo.

Do you know how Roman Reigns learned how to swim?

True, but I mean all of his main roster promos. I guess he never had many good Shield promos outside of their tweener phase anyway. I still remember his first live Shield promo, he shouted the whole thing. V bad and they stuck to him being "the silent one" from then on
A little late to the party, but now I have WWE Network I'm watching Wrestlemania XXX for the first time before watching the 24 shows. Just finished Brock ending the streak and wow at the crowd reactions, like someone had just told them their favorite uncle had just died or something.
the funny part was that at the time, the general reaction to those promos from Roman was that they were kinda bad and that they should not give him the mic.
in hindsight, he might as well have been jake the snake in nxt

Fuck this shit pepsi, perhaps consider why Daniel Bryan has fans in the first place and what it is about him that makes fans cheer him over a hand selected guy like Reigns. And so help me god, it's not the colour of his skin, you ass. People like Bryan because he's genuine, even when he's being given shit content by the writers, he makes it work and then emphasises what he says by performing to such a high standard in the ring. Reigns doesn't have that ability because he doesn't have the experience. In the fifth year of Bryan's career he was touring Europe and wrestling regularly in Japan, whereas in the fifth year of Roman's career he was separated from the team-mates who effectively disguised his deficiencies and thrown into the deep end by being forced into a main event spot before he had the tools necessary to back up such a heavy push, on the mic or in the ring. One is a self-made man who clawed and struggled for eleven years in the world of wrestling to make a name for himself and get signed by the WWE, the other is a college football player who couldn't cut it and turned to wrestling, knowing how far his family ties could potentially take him.

I've given up caring who's playing a gimmick and who isn't, I'm just taking everything you fucks post at face value.

I can't even tell if this is a gimmick post. You guys are getting too meta for me.
I'm also really sad that I've once again failed at getting PWG tickets. That's 3 shows in a row now that I'm gonna miss. Oh well.

Ignorance isn't a gimmick, at least in the realm of online message boards. It's just being ignorant.

The one thing Bucks haters fail to realise or are unable to accept is that, while many of things said about them are true, when it comes to their style of wrestling the Bucks are pretty much the best thing going. If you don't like what indie tag wrestling or Japanese super jr. tag matches have become, that's fine, hate away, but at least understand why the Bucks are so in demand these days without resorting to calling their fans idiots.

I think this is the most damning thing anyone has said about Reigns here.
WTF?! Where is this guy at on the mic? I actually enjoyed that quick promo and even chuckled at the 99 cent dig! Also.
The Heel we all deserve.

You mean Reigns' one? It's pretty much Diet Rock, but it's not horrible. This is horrible.

I like the "Earnest Bootaaay" gimmick.
I eagerly await a debate between Boots and Bean Breath. Could build a PPV around it...

Which PPV? "Mind Games", "No Mercy" or "Bad Blood"?
Being Rock-lite doesn't suit him, either. Cena already tried that.

Yeah, I'd take cheap suit Rock wannabe Roman to what we got now any day of the week.
He did seem more comfortable.

He doesn't. He relies on Rock-branded swimmies to keep him afloat.
