The wild island of Samoa... that's where the savages, the canibals life - right? At least that's what one might think if he ever saw the Wild Samoans (Sika and Afa).
Well, Sika's son is, as all of you who might read this probably alerady know, no other than Roman Reighns.
A great wrestling family with star names like Peter Maivia, Yokozuna, Rikishi and Dwayn "The Rock" Johnson... there are a few of them in WWE at the moment (just think of the Uso twins).
But unlike most of the Samoans Roman seems to be too reserved.
Yes, he's young, strong, doesn't look half bad and can perform well in the ring (remember Summerslam 2014: Roman Reigns vs Randy Orton). OK, the comments on that one were split (not the first few) and yes, I agree - it was Randy who carried the match. There's nothing wrong with that. It was Rick Rude or Macho Man to carry the Ultimate Warrior's matches too (yup remembering Warrior at Summerslam in a steel cage against the Ravishing one).
But Reigns had to play his part - and he did.
There's no doubt, he could have been the top face in teh business... but for one simple fact - he's getting booed at.
And no, it's not only Royal Rumble 2015 and it's not because he's put in a spot and Daniel Bryan isn't.
People genuenly hate Reigns, as they do Cena. But Cena's playin ghte crowd with it. Reigns is still a bit too green for that.
The Shield was a great thing, but sure enough it had to break up. Unfortunately, I don't think they exploited the oportunities enough... True, it was the hernia operation that kept Reigns from the ring, but by that time Dean and Seth were already pass a major breakthrough in single's competition and Roman was left behind - and he was getting a push, although he got outshined.
Another problem is, that he couldn't be groomed. I mean, Seth would probably be in a programme against him, but with all his talent (Seth's got enough to start selling it at a garage sale)he's not one to groom. Maybe the Rock could do that... but I'm not sure either.
Now, they've given him to Big Show and possibly Kane... so maybe he'll come back more polished, but it's too late.
But his push was what made the people made!
But, getting heat from the crowd was always a good draw and by the end of an event it's only about how much money it made.
As I already wrote in my John Cena Sucks artickle, there's a whole new possibility with the babyface beeing booed upon. It's a new push, it generates new heat and WWE is being aware of it - how could they not be.
Just see how many comments there were about Wrestlemania, how the broadcast played down the intensity of boos against Reigns. I mean, it's all there to talk about - making the event a huge online trend. And as soon as you get people split over an issue, they will follow it. Up untill recently people were split when it came down to matches of crowd favorites... now they're split when just talking about one wrestler. That is optimization for WWE :)
So, does Reigns deserve to be booed at? Not really, he's done nothing wrong. But he's just got turned into a guy that the people will love to hate - and WWE didn't go overboard: Reigns didn't get the belt!
At least, that's what I think, you're always free to comment.
