DEEPTHROAT? Yeah he,s top 3 worst talker in the company with Swagger and... dare I say it? Her crazy marks are gonna redrep me like they always do when I mention her name. Ah fuck it and her marks. BRIE BELLA! Those 3 are the worst. Atleast Swagger isnt awkward he just has the lisp. Brie and Reigns are by far the worst and make people like Cesaro who Vince said has no verbal skills:lmao look like Ric Flair.

I'm flabbergasted at that segment, and not because of Roman's mic skills. They seriously needed the most over guy to tell the audience Roman deserved it, then get Paul Heyman to say he could beat every big star ever. It's like they want the audience to hate Roman Reigns. I mean, seriously, it's usually heels who go on about themselves like this. What are they doing here?

This is the issue for me, there was nothing wrong with Reigns part of that promo segment, nothing great from Reigns, but nothing bad. But for Christ sakes if Reigns is the guy that is going to be carrying the belt as the #1 guy after WM then at some point they need to take the training wheels off and see if he can actually carry a promo segment on his own.

Also the verbal fellatio as IDONTSHIV put it was definitely OTT and fell very flat for me.

Nasty I respect you but come on man. He held his own there and said what needed to be said. What was he suppose to say? More Nursery Rhymes?

That was the final straw. To see a wrestler like Daniel Bryan fight his way to the top and become the most beloved star in YEARS, to becoming nothing more than a pawn to put the WWE's chosen guy over is cringeworthy. It's sickening to see them exploit his real emotions in a storyline knowing how much he loves the business. There's no brass ring for him to grab at all. No matter how much he proves himself he'll always be stepped on, and he loves his job too much to take a stand against the bullsh^t.

I don't have anymore fun watching this product, it's gotten to that point now. I hope you all enjoy the WWE having their way in spite of what you want for the next 10 years.

At this point Vince is a DESPERATE father trying to get all the kids in school to like his FAILURE of a son. Why don't you just bring back "McMahon's Millions" and PAY us to cheer your boy & then we can only hope for a repeat of the following....

That segment just needed a piss poor wrestling match tacked onto it to be a full example of how pathetic Vince and the WWE is. That was the worst segment I have ever seen and I've seen HHH simulate sex with a dead woman, David Arquette win the belt, and men kiss vince's wrinkley old ass.

Part of the problem is he does seem somewhat of an introvert.

He does not project a larger than life personality.

He isn't personality plus.

The other part of his problem is his character isn't well defined.

The things that make a good actor, delivery, emotion, believability, I'm sure other things, its all missing.

He just isn't very good talking.

His delivery is just straight awkward. I can tell that he's not comfortable cutting promos. They let him say around 5 lines and that's it. But, that's who they wanna give the world to? No future face of the company should need TWO guys coming out to basically suck his dick and get him over verbally because he can't do it by himself. Take the damn training wheels off. If he's good enough then let him prove it.
