Is Reigns winning you over yet?

[Deleted]

Given the Lesnar match and the past few weeks, is he? Are you becoming a fan?

I'll say I don't dislike him as much as before. I can see him trying to get better, he is getting better and I wish he was tons better but it's not as bad as it used to be and in the future he will be pretty great. I'll see how this all plays out. So far I went from "god it's another Reigns match, f***" to "meh..." on him. So overall it's a bit better. I've been saying that even during the whole "Reigns will win the title at WM31" thing that the time between WM31-WM32 he will improve a great amount. So far it seems to be happening. I'm not even going to comment on the crowd but if he's trying, actually putting in work and we can see improvement then might as well see what he can do. Good luck to him.

What about you?

[Instant Classic]

Loved him in Shield. When he went on his own I still liked him a lot, when he won the Rumble I was like damn but still liked him going in to the Bryan feud. Heading in to Mania I didn't really care for him, but I still like him and know he will just get better.

[mizerable]

The only thing I don't want to see happen is to see him fail based on the intent of the fans to hate him. I doubt Vince would lose interest in him, but based on his stock in the Shield alone, I really hope he doesn't flounder. I want all 3 guys to be very successful in terms of all becoming WWE champion considering no other stable could ever make that claim, and perhaps maybe lead to a reunion somewhere down the line.

[Next Level was WRONG]

I would not buy a ticket to see him.


Maybe someday. But not now.

[StormanReigns]

No more jokes, no more making it look like the fans are the heels, and he's a great guy. Just act like a badass, and carry on

Had the best match at 2 PPVs in a row, and hasn't cut many shitty promos (mostly because he barely talks anymore). Definitely an improvement. I'm still just kind of bored by him though, I can't see myself being like a BIG Roman Reigns fan. But, if we're comparing to October-January, much much better.

[Deleted]

He's quit acting like Cena so yes. I like Cena a lot, but we don't need two of them running around.

[froggyfrog]

Always loved him baybay

[fw91]

never loved him. never hated him.

[Urfarkendarf]

My feelings about Reigns are much different than a lot of guys Ive been apathetic about in the past. I like him. I absolutely have no problem with him being pushed and I am rooting for him to succeed.

But he's not won me over yet. Its not even measurable at the moment. He's got a long way to go in his development and I think he will eventually get there, but its far too soon right now to say at least in respect to how I perceive him and his ability to entertain me.

He had an absolutely outstanding match at Mania that IMO will be a match of the year contender (at least in WWE) and the Fast Lane match was also decent. My issue is not really with his ring work. It's his just sheer lack of a personality. He has given me absolutely no reason whatsoever to give a shit about his character.

[King Boo]

No.

[Deleted]

Nope. Still not really convinced he's improved that much and even if he had his character and the storyline he's in does nothing for me.

I think he could be big, I want him to be, but I don't buy that he's ready to be and at this point in time I just plain do not want to see him in the main event scene.

[Oh Cry Me a Screwball]

He's still a guy with tremendous upside, but has no business in the main event scene.

I'll give him credit that he's willing to taking a tremendous beating to make a match work. The match at Wrestlemania was catharsis at its finest. But it doesn't erase the fact that there's several guys on the roster who don't need the smoke and mirrors that he needs to be a main eventer.

[CATCH_US IS the Conversation]

I want him to be successful. I just don't want him in the uppercard AT THIS TIME.

[Super Duper Dragunov]

Nope. Still in Shield cosplay down to the music. He needs to evolve.

Once he gets his footing he'll take off like a rocket. Or have the rocket strapped back on him and then we hate him for never losing.

At least he sells. #youcantseeme

[the2ndevil]

I've never not liked any of The Shield guys. He is the one I was least familiar with at the start, and have been impressed with him, the same as I have with Seth and Dean.

I do, however, feel he would have been a more natural fit for the Corporate Champion than Seth, based on his family history, alone. And his fondness for suits.

[BigWill]

No, as it's only been a couple weeks. I don't expect him to get great overnight. Give it a few months at least, and then we'll see. And even then he may suck, as WWE loves booking their main eventers in a way that entertains them, rather than how the fans want them.

[KobashiChop]

I'll give him credit. The Lesnar match was unreal and he just belonged. I don't see him as the guy but he can be a main event player.

[4real]

For me the damage is already done and It's going to be hard for him to recover. The sense of apathy I've had since the Rumble is still there. He can have as many good matches as he wants but the stink still remains.

[Woo]

Well like many I like Roman Reigns, but he feel like he should be battling guys like Rusev, Luke Harper, Cesaro or fighting for the midcard belts at the moment rather than being pushed into the main events.

Honestly if they had done the logical angle of Reigns ending Rusev's streak and winning the US belt the could have avoided all of this. But then not doing the logical booking is always the WWE's problem.
