The blueprint is clearly MJF in modern wrestling. But Roman seems to have no consistent moral stance, he buries everyone, wrestlers and fans ackowledge him and annuncers are in awe. So when he says stuff like this, it doesn't come off as anything but a burial of the other belt and champions. As it did the other way around. It's more have your cake and eat it booking that AI is guilty of. I dunno, I don't personally feel bothered by it. Although he's getting cheered, he's still essentially the same character he was as a heel. I don't necessarily mind that and I don't feel like the words of one character impacts perception of the title. He's being arrogant, but the WWE title isn't lesser because he says that it is. Your criticism is totally valid, but I don't think it does any actual damage. I do think his character is so messy that it makes storytelling very challenging, but that's another matter. Quote
