You're missing the true story here. Rosey found out about the news as a child and it led him down a path of self-destructive behavior. Eventually he befriended Jamal, a man who was troubled by the fact that his thumb could kill people, and started beating people down in the name of 3 Minutes, the amount of time that a Wild Samoans match usually went. Went Jamal mysteriously disappeared, Rosey tried to turn his life around and become a superhero, but still had to call himself SHIT according to his nihilist philosophies. ![](https://media.tenor.com/images/3380bdc58cf674cef2d038fd68a53fe3/tenor.gif) Amazing. And the tragedy doesn't even end there. Once Rosey finally turned his life around, it was all ruined by The Hurricane's selfish desires to wear sunglasses and rap about Vertebreakers like he did in his youth. Afterwards, he went and smoked a pack of cigarettes. I'm Max Landis and this has been Roseying Isn't Rosey.

They were f***ing heels you f***tards but let's get down to the real meat of this. What this sounds like is they've f***ed up Roman's mindset since he was a child. His mom, knowing kayfabe and whatnot, knew why the Wild Samoans were booed but given Reigns is a kid, she didn't tell him the truth. She gave some excuse that's warped his mind. Now, as an adult, Reigns still doesn't get why he's booed. He doesn't get that he's the one in the wrong while the fans aren't. He doesn't get that Rollins has been the real one grinding all his life to get here while he, Roman Reigns, is the one really getting things handed to him. Roman's suffering from a mental disability. Holy f***. The thing is, this is also a very good example of the 'deluded heel who is convinced he's right' thing people were talking about in the Enzo threads. He has this rigid sense of right and wrong, and he just believes that he DESERVES to be cheered because he always did what he thought was right according to his own principles. What this also approaches is that wonderful, wonderful, rare moment where a character breaks the fourth wall by acknowledging how ridiculous the spectacle is within the rules of the storyline. IN KAYFABE, Reigns is totally right: he IS the scrapper, underdog, good guy. It IS stupid that the fans cheer the cheater kiss-up. But of course, we all know that outside kayfabe (or, if you prefer, within the New Kayfabe about 'who's getting pushed'), people prefer Rollins precisely because they see him as having worked harder and scraped his way up, while Reigns was chosen from on high. It's almost endearing to see Reigns-the-character so perplexed about how his universe doesn't make sense.

I'm still shocked they didn't go with the "They hate you Roman because they are fat losers and you are cool and awesome and strong and don't sneeze and have a huge dick and..."

The WWE is very self-aware of the Roman Reigns situation, illustrated perfectly well in this comic.

And turn his head slightly to the left.

Roman: "Mom, why are the fans booing the Wild Samoans?" Mom: "Because they are heels, idiot" She would call him a #dumbassmark

Iam more curious as to why someone in the crowd appears to have a scratch WWE logo sign in the Rock n Wrestling era?

It's said Vince lives in Connecticut, but the real state he lives in is denial. I enjoyed that

Also he's explicitly heel-hypocrite. "Psht I don't care if you boo me. ....wait, why are they booing me that's not fair"
I wonder if that's on purpose or not.

That time when the fans booed the Wild Samoans and cheered the face team of Big John Studd and Macho Man Randy Savage.
This comic is so weird.

This reads like a Spider-Man comic. I half expect Afa to get shot by a robber and for Roman to start fighting Ted Dibiase's crime ring.

Roman: "Mom, why are the fans booing the Wild Samoans?" Mom: "Because they are heels, idiot" She would call him a #dumbassmark So that explains the Cena insult...he first responded to his mom by calling her a 'Fake-Ass Bitch' after finding out the truth about 'the business'!

They should have "Mr. Whining Weasel Always Takes The Shortcut" as the intro to Rollins' theme in place of "burn it down"...

For real though, did Randy Savage ever actually team with Big John Studd? I know their WWF careers overlap, a bit when Savage first came in, and then when Studd came back for his last sad little run, but they never teamed, did they?

Like, the only reasonable way might have been on a Survivor Series team or something? Maybe?

"Mommy why is Macho Man Randy Savage teaming with Big John Studd?" "Because Hulk Hogan is a racist" Roman must have a bad memory since the Samoans were done as a team before Savage even arrived since they left in '84. Plus he was a heel until '87. Plus Studd didn't start shaving his chest until his return. Plus Roman wasn't even born yet. So none of this makes any sense.
