Bubba Ray Dudley Responds To Fans That Say Roman Reigns Has The Wrong Kind Of “Heat”

This past week on the RAW after Wrestlemania 33, Roman Reigns came to the ring to a chorus of boos. Reigns stood in the middle of the ring as the crowd yelled things like: “F*** You Roman” and “Roman Sucks”.  This was less than 24 hours after he ended the career of the legendary Undertaker.

Bubba Ray Dudley took to twitter to comment on the segment. He says that Reigns was ‘playing 15,000 people like a fiddle’.

A fan responded, saying that Reigns doesn’t have any (traditional wrestling) heat, he is legitimately hated:

  1. I dont think that the fans legit hate him, they just wish maybe he wasnt placed at the top of the card or main event in every big ppv.

    Both sides make good points… but if u legit hate reigns and u want him to go away – silence is key. Youre feeding into WWE when you react either way.

    If u want him to legit go away… keep quiet. It wouldnt take long before WWE pulls him because of *crickets*. Silence doesnt play well on TV in front of crowds.

  2. At this point, they hate him because they want to and not for anything Roman or WWE has or hasn’t done. WWE’s done everything to help Roman get over but the same fans crap on it. It boils down to this: Roman is legitimately talented, puts on good to great matches every time, sells merchandise(real indicator of like/hate), and gets a reaction. The fans that boo’d could’ve stayed home, sold their tickets to someone else, but they came, spent their money just to boo him and he played them like a master. The less he reacted, the angrier they got.

    • I agree to an extent… however, people don’t necessarily pay money JUST to see roman. contrary to WWE’s belief, some people pay to see others perform. WWE likes to spin it like everyone pays just to see roman, which isn’t necessarily the case.

      I’ve gone to many live events since roman has been on the main roster and not once did I ever stop and think – gotta make this one specifically for roman.

      but i agree that he is a star… and if people truly “don’t care”… the way to show vince and WWE is by saying nothing.
