DavidB6937 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Admittedly they are known for doing nonsensical things but aligning Roman with Heyman just to have him face turn on him again immediately? Nah. Even by their standards that's weak. If they're going for this, they're going for it. There's no logic to putting them together otherwise. Paul has always spoken highly of Roman. I'm good with the partnership. They just need to go with it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yakashi Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Imagine getting excited for anything wwe might do. I admire people’s faith but how many times can they shit in people’s mouths and have fans still ask for DLC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshC Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Do they ever do anything like this on a go-home show and then have it stick? Would have thought they'd have put them together at the end of the PPV itself if it were to stick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To a lot of the audience he isn't a singles main event talent. He's getting good exposure every week. Promo time. Wins in the ring. And additional stuff like Talking Smack. I'd rather they built him properly than randomly shoved him out there without any foundation and then forgot about him. They've already got main eventers they're focusing on. Eventually once they pull the trigger with Big E then the audience will view him as at that level. There's still time to do that and watch him grow into the role. He's someone that could be someone they can build the company round in the future. There's far more there to be invested in than the run Kofi had.

The Cutting Edge Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Ideally have Reigns as champ from tomorrow til Mania going on a heel spree, by start of the year we should have Uso's, Kofi and Woods back. E wins the rumble, few months of Reigns/Usos/Heyman heel unit vs New Day all heading to E winning at Mania, hell I'd even stick on Usos vs Kofi Woods in TLC if that feud can kick off properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted August 29, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted August 29, 2020 Checked out some clips on YouTube. Apart for the hilarity of them putting Reigns and Heyman together two years after it would have been interesting, I chuckled at Bray's line about "those two monsters with ugly teeth".

They can turn Roman heel, strap the rocket onto Big E and even give Keith Lee an earnest to god push. In the end it wont matter either way. Because in WWE nothing matters and everyone is just a cog in the wheel filling time. They're systematically fucked beyond repair And I'm the biggest fool of all. I'm desperate to see that three way main event at Payback and Roman finally working as a heel. It's their last golden carrot. I love Roman, and this is the boost he's needed for years to get over the hump and become the kickass transcendent star we know he should be. But he won't. He'll be swallowed up by shit scripts and senile booking like everyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Supremo Posted August 29, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted August 29, 2020 (edited) I don’t want to fault what they’ve done with Big E on Smackdown so far, they’re doing a reasonable job, but fucking hell. The Talking Smack version of Big E is quickly becoming something truly special. They need to find the time in every episode of Smackdown to feature these promos. It was always obvious he was being under-utilised but this is something else. He’s the absolute perfect guy given the current climate, super charismatic, super educated, insanely articulate. This is it. He’s the guy. If he isn’t already pencilled in to win the Title at Wrestlemania and have the whole company built around him then they’ve lost their minds.

Can't remember who but that's always stuck with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pogue Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 In regards to new gear and music for Reigns, surely this is the worst time to do that? Imagine if the fans come back in how ever many months time and he's still got the Shield gear and music, no one's cheering that, if he has a new look and music plus Heyman they'll probably cheer him like mad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winston Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Just reading results this morning but Roman vs. Jey Uso is a great idea, could do good things for both guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Supremo Posted September 5, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted September 5, 2020 Heel Roman is the best. I’ll never get over them wasting years not doing this in front of fans. He’d have already peaked as a heel and been turned back babyface by the fans by this point. He oozes a superstar aura like almost no-one else in that company. I can only assume Sasha is injured and needs an extended period of time off? Otherwise I can’t fathom them teasing the break up of Sasha and Bayley for years and then finally pulling the trigger with Sasha as the babyface and Bayley as the heel. Goes directly against their natural strengths. Really disappointed in the fans at the Thunderdome. When Jay Uso was thrown over the screens surely someone should’ve realised how funny it would’ve been to look up or backwards as if they were actually sitting there? Shame.
