Roman Reigns

This segment is all about the return of Roman Reigns. Here’s some highlights of the conversation:

Josh Isenberg:

I’m not sure if it was the best to return him but it was the right way. You had to bring Roman Reigns to RAW in Pittsburgh. It’s not like Philly or New York, there were more kids at this show, still a mixed reaction but that’s better than no reaction. I like the intensity. I like that he didn’t come out of the crowd. I like little things in his character in this one week. I think this could be a turning point. When he was off TV, people didn’t really care because they were pushing Dean Ambrose.

Justin LaBar:

It was a good way to reset. I’m glad he stopped coming out the crowd, you can’t do that forever. I would have liked him to go further and switched the look up some to signal a reinvention and make a statement. I thought it was well done. Reaction is better than no reaction. People have made up  their minds up if they are going to like Roman Reigns. Red equals green, the blood was a great touch. Very physical, very real. People have made up their minds but whether you like it or not they aren’t going to turn him heel. How can you blame them? They get rid of him as a top baby face, Ambrose is a favorite but this isn’t a wrestling company, they are an entertainment brand. Even if you boo him, they are going to tout him out a smiling babyface on the morning shows, corporate functions for brand awareness. WWE is expecting a portion of the audience to boo him and that’s OK. For 10 years, they’ve have John Cena as the top heel and babyface and it worked out OK.
