I am not actually complaining about his role currently. I am just interested to see how Reigns goes about speaking on his own after the Shield disbands. I am judging that off of what he is doing with them currently. I love how Reigns works as a big guy in this stable and it looks like he has good wrestling ability. The way he works with the Shield is fantastic but if Reigns were on his own, the mic skills wouldn't be all that impressive to me. With the Shield though, it works.

Dude, I 100% agree with you. Reigns skills aren't impressive at all to me right now, in fact I can tell you his mic skills are awful, because they are. However, his current gimmick in the group(being the muscle) is a good excuse for him to talk the way he does let alone not talk at all. Rollins needs to stop trying to emulate Ambrose's promos because it's not working out. He should talk less and be the guy who evily smiles and laughs while Ambrose does the talking. Like someone said in here, they each need to have their own role.
my problem wasn't with Seth taking up too much time its him emulating the way Ambrose delivers his lines...its annoying me a bit but i'll let him off as he is still learning.
I was thinking the exact thing. Good to know others feel the same, or else it'd have looked like I'm just biased. Maybe Dean is teaching him something.
Btw, I prefer Reigns talking over Seth. Dunno why, Seth just feels a bit forced and scripted... while Reigns feels more natural the way he says thing without any emotions. It fits him perfectly and it's believable... to me at least.
Something about the promo, though I only listened to it once, gave me an IWC feel. Like they were saying what some of us are thinking, where the WWE is dying/she's too nice/etc. It was a great promo once again, and it put a smile on my face. The Shield still going strong.

That's probably Rollins' best promo since his debut on WWE television. The intensity, the energy - everything was right about it. Ambrose was just as impressive as he always is. And Reigns, he's supposed to be the "actions speak louder than words" type of a guy and he's just doing that. I'm loving this stable, everything seems to be going on quite well.
