The concussion theory is hilarious to me since it's basically "WWE SUSPENDED HIM FOR BEING TOO loving BADASS!" Honestly though, I really don't hate the guy and I hope he comes back after this as a heel and his push gets chilled out so everyone can stop hating him.

I can't help but feel that something must be up with how Roman gets busted at some point before Money in the Bank while the Usos almost completely vanish for a month.

Two Tone Shoes posted:I hope they use Reigns as the guy to eat the double pin from Dean and Seth to establish each getting their own championship for the brand split. Nope. I bet they do the "Reigns spears himself through the barricade when the other two move" spot to eliminate him, and then Dean and Seth do a double pin from a German suplex or something.

What the hell is this poo poo. The dude fails a drug test and then owns up to it? You're on top of the loving world with the mega push of the modern era, and then you go risk it by violating the wellness policy? He must be arrogant as gently caress, because he drat well knows that he is going to be right back in the main event scene the moment he comes back.

Byron Saxon is just such a non entity on commentary. I won't even say he's bad, he's just loving bland as hell. He's silent for like a minute at a time and then 99% of what he says is the most generic obvious crap. I literally forget he exists until he says something and then I roll my eyes and then continue forgetting he is alive. Anyway he is not a good announcer and thanks for listening to me vent about an announcer while my mortgage is in very real danger of being sold to the bank due to non payment.

Roman did have a hernia, I haven't had one but I would probably take roids too if it meant a faster recovery. Also, if I was making millions of dollars for WWE and was under immense pressure to look good/put on good matches. I can't believe I'm defending Roman Reigns, what the gently caress... I'm glad he'll be off TV for awhile though, and I'm definitely glad Ambrose is champion. Overall, I'm filing this news under Good.

ChuckDeNomolos posted:Yeah, being cuffed just means you are detained, not necessarily arrested. No charges and no mug shots is the biggest tip that it's not an arrest. If there was an arrest, you would be able to check the site for people checked into holding and then we'd have had Paige and Del RIo's mugshots that morning. This is a good point, I mean if I had a dime for every time I was detained without being arrested I'd have...2 DIMES!!

Hardcore Holly's book is pretty drat honest as far as talking about the juice goes. He pretty much goes out of his way to talk about why the biggest draws usually don't get popped because they could afford the better poo poo that's harder to catch. I think he may have even mentioned HHH by name when he was comparing someone who could get growth hormone vs. someone like him stuck using deca durabolin.

If I remember, in an interview he basically said "They stuck the belt on me and I was feeling under pressure to perform, so I got the drugs to get built."

I think it was when he got the Raw GM position and KOTR. He was definitely in a position where he'd at least contend for the belt and the pressure of having all three of those (at the time) big things got to him

They're going to pop you if they catch you, but they're going to reward you if they don't. Roman was getting the push of a lifetime and floundering, he was hurt, and he just saw Rollins go out with a bad injury for an extended period. I know going on the juice isn't the best of decisions but I can't say I wouldn't have considered it in his position. I hope this gives him an opportunity to reboot his character a bit and come back as a monster heel.

Also is Andre not 7'4", wikipedia says he is, I know Andre was BIG, not small, no no no It was about 2 years ago. More context is that the guy telling me this mentioned it after saying that wwe lies about him being only 7'. I never brought up andre i just happened to be wearing a wrestling shirt But as far as his height goes i always thought he was shorter and that 7'4 was an exaggeration. I've heard as short as 6'10" but i don't know whats real when it comes to wrestling heights/weights

MotU posted:who knows all you had to do to get roman to generate heat was to piss into a cup Just scanning through the thread, had to highlight this because . Yeah I totally buy that they had Roman lose to Seth because of his wellness issue. Maybe if that didn't come up they'd have Roman win and Dean cash in on him instead? I mean, with how obsessed they've been with pushing Reigns to the moon it's hard to believe they'd be willing to have him lose the title clean unless something forced their hand. Crowd reaction to Roman is going to be interesting as hell when he comes back, and at Battleground in particular.

Rhonne posted:When was this? Please tell me it was during his "World's Largest Love Machine" phase. I want to say... yes? This was about 06-07, so it was either that or Big Daddy V era. He was leaning against a bar rail and my manager Norm asked him to move. Vis either didn't hear him or ignored him. According to one of my co-workers it escalated quickly and Vis stood up straight and faced him. Norm got in his face and bro armed him. Vid laughed and said something like "You got guys, little man" and stepped aside. Norm said I ain't no little man and walked by him. Everyone went back to business as usual like it never happened. Armando Estrada and Victoria were there too. Norm said Victoria had a face like ten miles of bad road cuz he's a big loving jerk. We'll, there's my story. Back to lurking for me.
