rare Magic card l00k posted:Roman would join the Bullet Club and be the top heel in Japan (and thus a massive star if he ever showed up in ROH) approximately half a second after leaving WWE, and his matches would probably be largely better as he'd be working with mostly smaller people than he is now, making him look much more impressive. I think one of the funniest posts I've ever read here was "Roman can't leave WWE because no indie would ever want him" e) for an actual answer I consider Roman to be significantly better than Cody Rhodes so consider the NJPW show in California and go from there.

It's an old song by this point, but it really is sad to see WWE mishandle 3 such obvious talents who were so over for so long and actually successfully fought against bad suggested booking ideas. I always figured Seth would be the one who ended up as the biggest star but I guess Roman's look was too much for WWE to resist.

I still think Seth ends up the biggest star. Vince is either gonna die or get tired of throwing stuff down the Roman Reigns hole eventually and find a new toy he likes more.

WadeBartender posted:I agree Randy Savage was bad If Roman could deliver promos half as good as Randy every poster on this forum would be begging for him to have two belts. The problem is his charisma. He is a guy who can wrestle a good match and work babyface the whole time and genuinely put in a lot of effort and still get booed out of the loving building because he can't convince anyone.

rare Magic card l00k posted:Roman Reigns is the only wrestler to have an unironically good singles match with Suplex City Lesnar that didn't rely on being extremely short. I am regularly entertained by his matches, and his expressions are extremely good. I haven't seen an expression of babyface hope like when he finally staggered Lesnar in my entire time as a wrestling fan. Roman is a wrestler I can actually buy into the emotions he expresses on TV, unlike more or less anyone on the roster. This is interesting (I am honestly curious why people like Roman Reigns) but it also shows how a lot of things are just 'different tastes'. I've never once felt invested in Roman Reigns due to his emoting or expressions, he seems incredibly bland to me in that regard. MassRafTer posted:He has great timing, absolutely fantastic timing mainly. WWE matches are pretty structured these days due to the style and agenting so one of the big things a wrestler can bring to them is timing. Roman knows exactly when to hit his spots and transition and that's part of why his big spots get big reactions so often even from a crowd booing him. He also does little things like knowing when to fight back and get hope spots in. He has a lot of physical charisma so that helps sell his strikes and such. This I do understand though. He does have a lot of presence within a match. If WWE were booked to be more interesting I could see his matches having a lot of drama as to who would win/lose. Hell, I know the few times he's lost when no one expected it were really exciting for that reason. It's too bad that his future seems to be 'beat Brock Lesnar' so there probably aren't many surprises left.

People don't like Roman because (in character) JBL likes Roman and that's hosed up. Always do what JBL doesn't.

im glad everyone is on board with fat Roman, there needs to be a movement to let the big dog know he can drop the girdle and stop with the fat burners or diet pills or adderall or whatever he was on, WWE fans are body positive and support the big fat dog
