Apr 6, 2018 This is cool. A tour around WM Axxess. A chance to get to experience it visually. I've been watching them yearly ever since they started streaming them. @WrestlingBros
Apr 6, 2018 What do you think are his best traits/what do you like about him? I'm not even trying to hate or anything, just legit wondering. He's slightly grown on me I guess but it's also kinda a 'I give up, obviously WWE loves him and won't quit' type thing, although he isn't awful at this point imo..It's just his push and booking is usually so d--- annoying. He's putting more emotion into his promos which is good, he has interesting matches/feuds at times(though this one with Brock is awful), but overall he's still fairly boring to me.. I mean with a bunch of former and current wrestlers who are top stars like HHH, Jericho, Austin, Rock, Brock, Taker, Edge, Cena, Miz etc..To me he's in the category with those guys cuz of his status in WWE and all the big matches/stories he's involved in, but I don't find him anywhere near as interesting as any of those other guys.
Apr 6, 2018 I feel like he is actually invested into his character. A result of bad booking and being “hot shotted” to the top made people actually look over his in-ring abilities. And because of him, people are giving him he Cena treatment. There have been a lot worse than Roman reigns, yet He is portrayed as such. There could be much worse. The hate is a product of his booking. The dude can wrestle and cut a good promo. I have enough sense to know he isn’t close to being the best in the business. Yet, he doesn’t deserve a lot of the hate he gets.
Apr 6, 2018 Company-pushed guys are a periodic occurrence. Luger in the early 90’s, Diesel in the mid 90’s, and Cena more recently. I’m probably forgetting a few but yeah. Difference is Roman can work better than two of those guys. Although I do think he is over-hatted to an extent, some of it is warranted. Superman Punch is woat. As is that sit down powerbomb. I actually like his spear. Not my favorite, but better than Edge’s spear (the hug). His promos mostly s---. And all of his matches ending in a random spear after he himself was put through h--- is absurd. Almost like what Cena used to always do. I would like to see him as an anti-hero. Like write him off for a few months and then have him come back. Like have him still start feuds with people but also be a vigilante. Like if a well-liked babyface is getting beat down in he can come in and make the save, but not interact with the babyface. Or maybe have him do something similar to what Austin did when he helped Mankind win the title. Don’t have him talk much. Maybe give him a mouthpiece. Not Heyman! Wish there were more good managers. Seems to be a lost art in today’s wrestling.
Apr 6, 2018 Nah I’m sorry but no. A 2 move guy a super man punch and a s-----y spear. His only other move is punching people. He hasn’t gotten better as a wrestler in general imo. He’ll never be up there with the rock and taker or even Benoit. I tried to get to like the guy but no. I would rather Brock say f--- it and just not show up and just hand the belt to Reigns. I’m not watching the match. Exactly what sign language said they need to turn this guy heel. I think he could really piss the crowd off and end up being a decent vilian.
Apr 7, 2018 About to leave 6 hours ahead of schedule because it’s supposed to snow here apparently, so I’ll be rolling into NOLA like 7 hours before I can check in at my hotel lol
Apr 7, 2018 He's a solid ring worker who can pull off a really good match with a capable opponent (AJ, KO) but he SUCKS ABSOLUTE a--- at promos and has literally gotten TRAINING and TAKEN CLASSES and DID THEM EVERY WEEK FOR YEARS ON TELEVISION and still can't even say the most mundane things with conviction.
Apr 7, 2018 All good guys. You don’t have to like it. I’m a Roman fan. He will never be the greatest wrestler but he is my favourite one.
Apr 7, 2018 Jesus guys Riddle vs Will Ospreay tonight was incredible...match of WM weekend so far. I’m sure the NXT Ladder match or Kenny vs Cody will beat it tmrw night but still
