Roman Reigns is not relatable.


He just seems super unapproachable.

Hogan was the prayers and vitamins superhero. Austin seemed like someone you could have a beer with. The Rock did everything for the people. Cena has always been super approachable.

Roman just seems cold and distant and even when he gives a face promo it comes out with this underlying tone of bitterness. I just don't see the type of personality anywhere within him that you need to be what they want him to be.

A heel roman who's delusional and thinks the crowd loves him who changes his nickname from "The Big Dog" to "YOUR Champion" would be very fun to watch.

Sadly Roman doesn't cut a believable promo, which is odd considering one of his catchphrases is "Believe that."

his public appearances don't help him either, he's super entitled and basically tells people to deal with it or stop watching

Entitlement is not telling someone to do something more productive than complain about their own actions.

Entitlement is thinking that because you spend time or money that you must get exactly what you want.

The Miz needs time off for his baby, and having Jeff put him out of MitB gives him a reason to come back and feud for King of the Midcard.

sorry, those are two separate thoughts. He is super entitled because "he puts in the work" and people shouldn't complain about him because of that. He also thinks that if they have a problem with his push that they should just stop watching.

Which, you know, they do, if you go by his house show sales.

everything about it has been a hilarious misfire except for, somehow, brock/goldberg.

kevin owens' awful reign is still somehow better than it is now, as the title that shows up once every quarter.

Owens' HIAC and Rumble title defenses were both solid, even if he was booked like he couldn't cut it on his own. And the stuff with Jericho was gold.

Continuing to buy something you hate is stupid. making GBS threads all over people because you’re supposed to be liked but you aren’t is also a really stupid way to try to endear yourself to people.

A lot of what Roman says is accurate, the issue is that he’s too stupid to realize that saying it out loud only exacerbates the issue.

He always seems to take the reactions personally and that’s basically the quickest way to validate them and make people want to go at him harder.

Cena is a master at taking that hatred and deflecting it in a way that’s almost endearing and at the very least makes it clear that it’s a fruitless endeavor.

Cena also recognized that as long as he wins the kids nothing else matters. Roman seems to want to be cool as gently caress to teens/smarks with the way he carries himself and his delivery which is a disaster.
