I gotta say I did feel sorry for Roman. Even after he got screwed, they still booed his ass. But to be fair Cena has been getting booed for over a decade. Reigns does for a year, and he looked like he wanted to cry. That is just some pas from the 90's, I see you Vince . I can't help but laugh, this guy just won't go over. Shamus champ okay lets look at the facts obje
1. He is the best brawler in the company
2. He has proven 3 -4 star matches at ppvs
3. He is hated
4. Has nucleur heat
5. IT keeps roman away from the title
6. ITs all the master plan Roman well win at WM
7. IT always helps when your golf buddy gets you a hole in one
Of course, a short but good heel turn could help to clear up his current woes, but if they do corporate Reigns its going to get Rock 2.0 screams from all around the world.
Vince needs to go with the flow and make him heel. Since he didnt do it tonight, I doubt he does. Now enjoy as Vince tries to recreate the organic rise of Bryan with a booked version of Reigns that parallels Bryan's ascension. Good luck with that, Vince.
I don't know why people keep saying to turn him heel. They are not in any position right now to turn Reigns or Ambrose heel. They are lacking enough guys as it is in the main event scene. Turning either of those two heel won't do them much good at this point.
I agree I don't dislike Reigns. I think he has all the tools But damn look at him he is just not a babyface. He has nuclear heat right nwowowow. Buttttttttttttttttt so does Shamus now. Consdiring everything it actually makes no sense he is being pushed as a face. Ambrose should be pushed as the top babyface, and Reigns should be heel. .
And do it in a way where he sells out because he gets tired of not being able to please the crowd or being a nice guy gets you nothing. You don't even need to make him truly bad, just a screw everyone, he's doing whatever he needs to get his goal done.
That finale walk backstage after Sheamus cashed in has to be the most clearcut sign yet of how Reigns as a Face just isn't cutting it, accept failure and change it up Vince.
I wish some if you would be honest. Even if they did turn him heel, you would still hate him. The Internet community will never like Roman, the casuals will always love him. The casuals outnumber the hardcore fans and spend more money by default. Roman will stay face in spite of the loud minority who hate him because he isn't Daniel Bryan.

I feel sorry for him too. He hasn't done anything to deserve this, it's all terrible booking, and honestly he's done everything he can to make this work, but they've destroyed his face character right now and not capitalizing on the heat he's getting isn't going to help him.
What they need to do with Reigns, IMO, Is give him one more "ultimate test" this year during WM season. before I get into my thoughts I do realize it will be sacrificing the Royal Rumble event for a 3rd year in a row but in the end I think it would be worth it as the WWE will get a final answer on whether a face Reigns will ever work to the level they want it to or not.
Have Reigns win the belt at the Rumble (or TLC and defend it successfully at the Rumble) have John Cena win the Rumble (yes I know it will get shit on but not like the WWE really cares about that :lol)
If Reigns can not get the smark heavy crowds on his side during the lead up to WM while he is trying to prevent Cena from tying Flair's World Title Record than you know the "hardcore" side of the audience is never going to accept Reigns as a face, and then you can either turn him heel or they can go with the Reigns "the Lets Go Roman, Roman Sucks face if they want that and stop trying to mix things in that will get "hardcores" to cheer for him.
You can't be serious? He was booed in both his matches. And the crowd POPPED and COUNTED along with sheamus pinning Roman and the popped for the first brogue kick also. Hell they showed up close up of his crying face and the crowd booed more.
LOL at the people who don't think Sheamus is the best brawler
The tales of Sheamus brawling sometimes up 4 or 5 guys by himself, back in the pubs in Templebar, in Dublin, Ireland are legendary!
