It's 2017 and people are still parroting things Dave said 2 days ago as if it's their own fresh spin

After watching 7 hours of a terrible Wrestlemania, I'm not entirely convinced it's 2017.

Everyone is whining since Triple H keeps saying “Roman is a different kind of heel”. They didn’t have to let him out at the number 30 spot in the Rumble, but they did. They didn’t have to have him eliminate The Undertaker, but they did. They didn’t have to pit him against Undertaker at Wrestlemania, but they did. They didn’t have to put that match on last, making him Main Event Wrestlemania 3 times in a row, but they did. They didn’t have to have him be the one to retire The Undertaker, but they did. Everything they’re doing is only making people boo him more and more, and with kayfabe so frail as it is, this may be one of the best ways to get a pure negative reaction. It’s like a Meta-Heel, and every time people boo and comment about Roman on posts and etc, it only plays right into their hands. In a way, it’s genius, a new way to elicit the classic heel reaction in a new times.

Has this plan resulted in higher RAW ratings?

Whoever is wearing the fullest diaper on the wrestling show does not inherently determine the ratings,. It is truly all about the "give a heck" writing in main event programs, which hasn't existed for a couple years, and should do instead. victory

This is only true if he puts over a face at some point. Otherwise he's a lovely heel.

between faces being booed like heels and heels rarely doing anything truly heelish, this is a more 'shades of grey' era than the attitude era, which usually gets stuck with that label.

It'd be ideal if AJ got a clean win over Roman with the roles reversed at some point

Yeah but Stephanie hasn't put anyone over in fifteen years and she's the coolest and best and prettiest and strongest and most important person in the world and everyone loves her.

She put over Rowdy Ronda Rousey, sort of. For like a minute.

Stephanie had no problem putting other people over in her early days but at some point she developed a massive ego (probably around the time she was named Chief Brand Officer)

The writers write Stephanie's segments, and they write for Vince. It's Vince that wants to see his daughter's tits being the best and strongest
