I'd think Drew is already ruined by the fact no one gives a f*** about him. They have had this guy crush everybody short of the Undertaker and he still gets dead silence every time he comes out. Makes you wonder why he debuted on the main roster as a heel when in NXT he was a face. I mean, being fair here it's not as though NXT crowds especially cared about him either. About the only thing he did there worth a damn was be the guy beaten up by Undisputed Era and that didn't even go anywhere. |

Speaking of feeling guilty for hating him Lmao I love Roman, but what a bunch of goofs. “People don’t like watching Roman be boring and invincible with terrible booking? Clearly our FANS are the problem, f*** em! ..but after you buy my shitty Baron Corbin t-shirt.” This is Meltz trying to do damage control after his idiotic "Roman is lying about his treatment" snafu. Anyone trying to use Roman's illness as a "gotcha" moment now by telling people to feel guilty is gross as shit. |

Obviously I'm happy he's back, but WWE booked one hell of a no-win situation for his WM return. If he beats Drew that ruins someone that WWE is trying to build as Seth's first challenger should Seth win, but if he loses there goes the feel-good moment. They'd have been better off finding some random guy to squash for him and have Drew beat someone else credible. I'd think Drew is already ruined by the fact no one gives a f*** about him. They have had this guy crush everybody short of the Undertaker and he still gets dead silence every time he comes out. Problem is that while most of the fanbase may not care, WWE clearly does. Which sounds plenty familiar. |

AJ lost at Mania 32. Jinder lost at Mania 33. There is a long and proud tradition of dudes getting their asses beat at Mania and then being the first post-Mania challenger. |

About the only thing he did there worth a damn was be the guy beaten up by Undisputed Era and that didn't even go anywhere. All I remember was when he won the title and when he lost the title. Can't tell you anything else he did besides that and the UE beatdown. |

This kinda says it all about WWE and their over-pushing of certain people. The guy beat cancer for f***s sake, yet the damage from his past booking and being shoved down the fans throats is still working against him.
It’s not his fault, it’s WWE’s fault. The constant title shots, changing the volume to try and disguise the negativity, it all adds up. He’s by all accounts a great guy, a locker room leader. Out of the ring he’s doing everything he should be to be “the guy”. Yet WWE have booked him so poorly one way or another that a f***ing cancer survivor will never be the main guy for the fans.

It just, to me at least, feels that they seem to be presenting McIntyre as a bit more of a threat than three of them with AJ being the exception (Ryback had already crashed down into a feud with Mark Henry, Kane lost to The Shield if I recall correctly, and Jinder lost the Andre to Gronk's friend). |

Hell, 34 counts because Roman ended up being the challenger at Greatest Royal Rumble. And then there's 31 where Orton won at Mania and got the shot, but was challenging the same guy he beat at Mania. |

For that matter Jericho losing at 28 and Cena and Alberto both losing at 27. |

I couldn’t be happier for him with his health. But I still have no interest in watching him competing. This 1000 times ^^^^^^ I still won't watch Raw and Roman is a huge reason why. |

About where I am with Reigns. Fine he's a great guy, but I really have him not on my tv. |

If he stays healthy how would he have been booked? I’d guess Rollins still wins the rumble, Ambrose still turns heel and wins the title so we get the Shield 3 way at WM. Presumably Ambrose signs a new contract in this timeline. Brock faces Lashley and Drew v Finn for the IC title.

Roman's been such a frustrating case because every now and then he'll do some cool shit. When he smiled at Brock while he was taking his beating at WM 31? That was pretty badass. That spot at Super Show-Down where he intercepted Braun with a Spear through the barricade? Cool as f***. But for every moment like those two, you'll get like ten Roman and the Beanstalk promos.

I'm glad he's in good health and I hope he wins his match with Drew, and I'm sure he'll be back in the title hunt in the summer. I liked his title win over Brock last August, just wish he held it longer.

I couldn’t be happier for him with his health. But I still have no interest in watching him competing. He was big reason I quit watching. The 4 months he was gone didn’t improve anything. And now he is back. So I continue not watching. Glad for his real life sake he is ok. But hard pass. |

I've never been more ready to cheer him.
I hope their booking lets me. So far the promos are vastly better already.

Always liked him, but glad he is taking things slow and not in the title picture. Hope he moves to Smackdown after the shakeup.
