He got the loudest reaction, complete support, consistent chanting of his name. This is a clear sign of fans approval. The people approve of his work, the improvement he has managed to achieve and the talent he posses to succeed in a big way. The Man has made it. I think its about time for Brock to put over, pass on the credibility and make the next big star for WWE, Roman Reigns. Brock has to pass the torch and Reigns is the man to take it.

Reigns is also incredibly popular on social media. In only two & half years Reigns has amassed over 9 million facebook fans(fastest rise in popularity of any WWE star on FB) and over a million twitter followers.




Admit it! You can't deny his rise anymore!

Smarks hate him because they can never be him. That is why they rally behind people like kevin owens and daniel bryan. Because they are so ordinary and have no physique whatsoever. Doesnt make them feel bad about themselves. Honestly that is 100% the reason.

Oh they count. His well over, just his going to have the stigma wherever he goes cause WWE rushed him. They have to put it on him soon cause of how monumentally they fucked him over. His overness is still a year away to warrant his current position. And his the wrong alignment to be a champion. But I'm pulling for him cause I hate Sheamus as anything but a hoss. And I want Roman to succeed but at the same time I worry about his future or if he can be fixed.

Well, may as well give an opinion on this. It's good Roman got a reaction, it's one crowd but if he gets over that's fine, he's really improved and done a lot.

What I don't get is Roman fans constantly trying to make him to be out this kind of God or he's like at this SCSA or Rock level of love. He's not and you fans won't convince haters otherwise. But the constant trumpeting of Reigns is getting to be borderline Eva Marie level. If you like Reigns than like him, stop trying to convince people how great he is, you're all like the people that found Religion, glad it works out for you but stop trying to convince everyone because you're happy and think you're right that everyone needs to follow the one true path.

As for the social media stuff, don't really care. It doesn't mean a damn thing and it never will. WWE can buy likes or simply fudge the numbers. Remember this is a company that is shady, pays to have Cena be the face of make a wish and supports a garbage cancer foundation to make themselves look good. When Bryan dared to have a dying kid as a fan the WWE buried him to be sure Bryan would never be the face of make a wish, only Cena can have that! That's what this company is.

As for my final thought if Roman has all these fans, why is he not Numero uno in merch sales? Why is he getting booed in some cities, no reactions in others and cheered in other places? Where are all these fans? Bryan got fans of all types to cheer for him and hijack the show so if Roman has 10 billion fans why aren't they doing the same thing with his shitty booking and constantly getting fucked?

All in all, you're all fucking crazy. I feel like a pilgrim in an unholy land where people worship this guy fanatically or hate him. Frankly I'm a better Reigns fan than 95% of his fans, if he does good, I praise him, I give him the benefit of the doubt, I care about his storylines, I just don't drink the koolaid and go with his shitty booking, I want to see him improve and become better. I do it without preaching like some crazy zealot. LOVE REIGNS OR ELSE SEEE SEE HE IS OVER WORSHIP HIM!OBEY, OBEY, OBEY! FOLLOW THE SUPERMAN PUNCHES!!.. for fucks sake some of you sound like Roman praising Bray Wyatts.

The same thing can be said the other way around. Haters should stop trying to get fans of his to hate to guy. Haters should stop trying to prove us wrong that he is the worst thing since Kenzo Suzuki. Haters should stop trying to prove us wrong that he is not over etc etc.

Tit for tat it goes both ways.

Like someone pointed out already ITT -- he is moderately over, and he better as f^ck be after every attempt that the WWE has made to present him as a big deal and garner sympathy for him. Anything less would be a downright embarrassment.

Reigns has fans -- no doubt about that, but let's not act like he's getting megastar reactions every week. Most of the time the crowd is mostly apathetic with mild cheers and boos toward him. Compare that to Rock, Cena, Bryan, Lesnar.... and even Orton's reactions on a consistant basis and they pale in comparison. Even Ambrose and Ryback were getting MUCH stronger crowd reactions at the beginning of the year until WWE cooled their Jets.

Reigns is pretty much presented as the only guy that matters while everyone else are treated like directionless chumps -- while the biggest crowd favorites are out with injuries. I don't have anything against Reigns personally, but let's call a spade a spade here.

Re: Reigns over as fuck on every raw

So, he's over on every show, except the shows where he gets booed?

If he's not over on those shows, then he's not over every show.

Also, this is a blatant troll thread.
Yeah, Romans Empire just loves to dickride Roman Reigns every chance he gets. It's one thing to be a fan of a wrestler, and it's another to worship someone and bash anyone who dislikes him. it's ridiculous.

See another excuse you smarks make is you call legit reigns fans trolls how pathetic. Just deal with the fact you lost on this raw and the Roman Empire celebrates its phenomenal victory.

I was thinking the same thing. Yes when the shield music hits you he gets initial cheers and that's awesome but when that guy is getting the upper hand or it looks like he will win all those fans seem to be absent no one seems to be really behind him and during his crowd entrance the people are more excited to be on tv than to see him there's a big difference.

Look at the reaction at the ppv when he won I mean you would have thought x-pac just showed up that's how dead the crowd was and that how it always is for him and has been for well over a year now. He is winning some people over mainly the Cena crowd ( women and small children) but it's something I guess. It is amazing to me though that just because someone is not a fan of something or someone they are labeled negatively (neckbeards) I mean what kind of petty third grade crap is that? I honestly am interested to see if he can get the cheers on his own now that Dean seems to have moved on and Roman doesn't have someone else's popularity to sponge off of.

@91ReasonsYouLose

The thing is there will never be a universally accepted, Vince approved babyface. Last year we were told people hate Roman because he couldn't wrestle. Last year we were told people hate Roman because he was being shoved down their throat as the heir apparent. This year, he spent 8 months in the mid card putting on some of the greatest matches, and now they're running to mic skills as an excuse as they scream PUSH CESARO, as if he isn't worse in that department. The fact of the matter is they'll never like Reigns for various petty reasons such as "HE'S PRETTY AND MUSCULAR, HE REPRESENTS OPPRESSION IN WRESTLING!!!" and they'll make up any bullshit to try to derail his rise to the top. If someone is hand picked by the corporation for being highly marketable and given strong booking, these people will automatically decide they hate them, regardless of their performances. They only like wrestlers who are perceived to be held down. I've grown to accept that inevitability and decided that irrational trolls and desperate haters like that should be ignored. Reigns is over with the majority whether they like it or not.

I have already say it, why is it so amazing that Roman Reigns the number one babyface in the company, the future face of the WWE is over.
He fucking should be over, that's his job. Do you think when Austin became the number one babyface in the company, there was threads on forums every week saying: " OMG Did your hear that Austin is over with the crowds " ?
Of course they weren't saying that because it's fucking normal. 10 years of Cena has really made you people forget what a real face of the company looks like and it's fucking sad.
