Rosenberg is sort of right, Reigns was on fire right at the end of the Shield. Sadly, the Reigns we chose wasn't the Reigns they gave us.

We wanted a mostly silent Samoan wrecking machine, a dominant face, a mini Lesnar, and they gave us a smack talking underdog who somehow unfailingly overcame the odds.

Don't expect us to remain silent after that kind of bait and switch.

i do not mind roman at all infact i like him but rosenberg is right and so is this quoted comment, people potentially wanted shield version roman but got differently flavored roman

i do not get the hate with roman, if cena got away with decade plus of burials and counting why not roman?

that being said i certainly want taker to win

I hate the way WWE is encouraging talking down to fans for liking what they like and disliking what they dislike.

How can they have heels on screen do that for 70 years and at no point realize it's annoying to do that in real life?

LMFAO, fans "chose" Reigns. Yeah, ok. Some people may have cheered him loudest out of the members of the Shield, but I watched Raw weekly back then, and there was only a VERY limited stretch of a couple of months, maybe even just WEEKS when this was actually true. Hell, he was already starting to get negative heat before the Royal Rumble that Batista won.

I was never a Reigns fan, even then. I always recognized him as the weak link in the Shield, the worst on the mic, and unseasoned in the ring. He's had so much opportunity to improve, and he has, but he's still not any better than decent at anything other than looking like the guy from Game of Thrones. Still gets booed weekly, can't cut a promo to save his life, despite probably hundreds of opportunities, he hasn't cut a single good or memorable promo (except for memorably bad) and he's STILL nothing special in the ring, though he's improved. 

Saying fans "chose" Reigns is like if someone would choose to eat brown rice once, then gets force fed brown rice for every single meal, week in and week out, for 3 years straight. They stopped liking rice years ago, and on top of that, the brand of rice they keep force feeding you isn't even the same brand you originally asked for. "But you chose brown rice."
I don't actually review games, unfortunately.

Not to mention during this time WWE pushed Reigns as the biggest guy in the Shield and protected him more any the others.

That had nothing to do with the fans, he was just big, muscly and Samoan so WWE wanted him to be big

Rosenberg is a dumbass some times. So just because the fans cheered the Shield as a collective group that means they wanted Roman Reigns to be "the guy"?

Reigns has always been the weakest part of the Shield group. It was painfully obvious once they turned face. IMO Rollins and Ambrose have developed into their own characters. Reigns still uses the same f***ing Shield music and gear and it's been like what now 2 years since the Shield ended?

I think that alone shows Reigns has very little depth and they have no f***ing clue what they should do next with the guy.

He showed he can heel it up pretty good this past Monday on RAW. So do it already turn the guy heel. The fans get up and boo because they don't like the way the character has been pushed down their throats as the new beacon of goodness. But of course WWE will say any reaction is a good reaction bulls*** they say all the time now.

I watched the brief clip from WWE's YouTube, and JBL is whatever, but what Rosenburg was saying was total BS. He said that all the fans collectively chose Roman as the standout guy, "not Dean Ambrose, not Seth Rollins", and that people only turned on him because they didn't like that WWE backed him, too. That's so entirely wrong.

The Shield was over as a unit. They weren't over because of any one specific member, they were over as a group. Even then, in discussions, people tended to favor Rollins and Ambrose over Roman. The only time one could arguably make a case for Roman is the Rumble before WM30, but people only backed Roman because at that point, they wanted anyone but Batista to win, and Roman at least still had the Shield to make him an interesting prospect.

I dunno. This seems like more of WWE's agenda machine at work. I don't really understand why WWE feels the need to be so antagonistic of the audience. At this point, WWE is basically going "God dammit, stop booing Roman! He's awesome, and we love him, and you should, too! Shut the f*** up already and do what we tell you to do!". And I don't get that mentality. And they've been like that even in the past with John Cena, as well.

Why purposely antagonize and s*** on your audience? Perhaps if WWE stopped doing that, people wouldn't feel the need to be so vocal and critical of WWE's decisions. But every time the fans don't do what WWE wants them to do, WWE just goes "f*** you! f*** each and every one of you! We'll do what we want, dammit, and you'll like it!".

So who were they cheering for on the "night they debuted" then? We didn't have the WWE network back then, so most of the crowd didn't know any of those guys. It's clear as day he didn't mean the exact night of their debut. Basic language comprehension skill should help you figure this one out. You remember how over Roman Reigns was for the majority of The Shield's run and it's obvious he was talking about who the crowd was getting behind the most early on. Rosenberg is a WWE fanboy and goes to shows a lot, so of course he'd bring up crowd reactions from The Shield days.

It really doesn't matter if the fans "chose" Roman Reigns or not. If the fans no longer like Roman Reigns, then he should no longer be "the guy", plain and simple.

Also, just because a guy is hot in a faction, that doesn't mean people want him to be the next big thing on the solo scene.

That was after they finally started booking Roman right by attacking the man with three H's at the TLC PPV. The positive reactions would continue up until the Royal Rumble, as his change of booking wouldn't last.

Roman Reigns is garbage.

If Vince wasn't horny for him he would be midcard at best.

Every fan I know in IRL can't stand Roman. Personally speaking, I tend to fast forward anything he's in now, even if it's against someone I like. I usually use his ppv matches to get a snack or smoke or whatever.

I'm pretty sure when the shield debuted everybody picked Dean as the guy because we all thought he was the next Roddy Piper. Boy were we wrong. JBL is right though. Roman is the right man now.
