I have a great idea, let's give a guy our two biggest titles for years then have him go f#@$ off for months at a time.

I honestly don't hate Roman not being on every PPV, but Survivor Series is kinda a biggie. Roman's really become the new Lesnar. My issue is similar to when Brock did this: Smackdown (The rest of the Roster when there was only one title) seldom seems to give a f*** there's no title to go after because Brock (Roman) is off hunting (doing whatever Roman does when not around)

Roman's really become the new Lesnar. He is, but it feels somewhat different, imo Roman has earned instead of on he's a big free agent and give him everything dammit!!! (Vince's voice) king of thing. Plus I don't know the numbers, but Roman/Bloodline feels like it's got to be making more for WWE now then when Lesnar returned in 2012.

The man is likely going to have had only two televised title defenses between WrestleMania and the Royal Rumble. That's insane.

Is there a non-kayfabe reason as to why Roman doesn't wrestle on television or PLEs?

My guess then is WarGames becomes:
Jimmy, Solo, Finn, Priest, Dom vs. Cody, Cena, Jey, AJ Styles and LA Knight.

Is there a non-kayfabe reason as to why Roman doesn't wrestle on television or PLEs? His new contract has limited dates. I also imagine it’s to keep him and his title matches feeling more special (not necessarily agreeing it does or doesn’t work that way).

Having the Bloodline as his representatives helps things move along. Brock was a lone wolf who only really had Paul Heyman yelling at potential challengers.

Roman is holding the title until WM 40 so more title defenses means more challengers he would have to plow through until then. Makes more sense to limit his title defenses.

Purely speculating, but I believe he signed a "per appearance" deal like Brock and the WWE decided to use up a lot of those appearances during the Sami storyline because of how hot the story was.

At this point idk why the title even exsists...Roman may as well just actually retire now with the titles he has because it already feels like it.

Maybe Money In The Bank is that 4th PPV now.

Roman not being booked is some real addition by subtraction for me so I consider that a selling point if anything.
