Just checked out Shield vs Wyatts at mainevent this week. Decent match but nothing like the first or even the second if I remember correctly.

The thing that stood out was the shields promo afterwards. We all know Ambrose is goat on the mic and Rollins is pretty good aswell but Reigns has always been horrible maybe that was because he was held back.

On this episode he really shined on the microphone. He didnt do that fake BELIEVE THAT shctick trying to sound intimidating but the man was himself and shined. Anybody that didnt see that needs to check it out and as a guy thats been bashing Reigns lately for being all looks I was definitly wrong and think the guy deserves some props for this.

Obviously it wasnt a Cm Punk promo or anything but I think he has that entertainer factor in him when he,s let go by the wwe.

Is Main Event a WWE Network exclusive now? I tried to watch it on ION and it wasn't scheduled to be broadcasted.

Lol, he was so sassy for real. I like that character of him, its hilarious and it gets the crowd going.



Apparently, considering that the match was live.

Yeah turns out he can be funny and charismatic aswell as intimidating. The wwe really need to let guys loose. Big E has personality aswell but it doesnt translate to tv.

Thought this was his worst moment since joining the roster. One of the most doosh-chill inducing, awkward promos I've ever seen. It's like he was battling with himself on whether to play tough or mack to the camera. So awful. This guy could be a disaster. And hitting on Renee? What a complete tool. Shut up and spear somebody.

I haven't watched the promo yet but I get the vibe that Roman Reigns can be a darker, more intense albeit still hilarious version of The Rock. He's too charismatic and easy to cheer to be a boring meathead like Batista, however he's too intense looking to be a pure comedy guy like The Rock, so why not have him be a mix of the two?

I don't see much hilarity coming from this guy.

I will need to hear more of his promos before I decide if I like them. There wasnt much to his on Main Event and I thought he came across as kind of a douche.

On a side note, do you think Ambrose really hurt his ribs or was just selling the injury very well?

It was pretty awkward, and Ambrose slowly dying in the background didn't make things better. There's something about him trying to be 'flirty' that comes across very unnaturally. I know that they're trying to take his character somewhere, but it really doesn't work when the 'badass' enforcer is hitting on all the female viewers.

I think both, Harper was full on stiff mode during that match. Maybe because Ambrose botched the neckbreaker, and i noticed something like that in the chicago one too. These two don't really get along very well in the ring

Or he can be a paying customer and watch it on the WWE Network.

Also check out The Shield's Wrestlemania XXX backstage interview. Roman stepped it up! Pay attention when he is talking about the double triple powerbomb.

It is on WWE's YouTube channel.

He needs to be himself more and not play that tough guy character so much.

It was a good job of Ambrose, because that night he recorded Smackdown and not demonstrated that he had almost "died" :p

I was Roman best promo

But you have Ambrose "die", Seth being serious, and Roman having fun.

It was weird.
