Roman Reigns on Fans Negativity: “I Think It’s Helped Me”

Being the top guy in WWE is not an easy task. It’s what everyone strives to be in this industry, and it’s the apex of this business for one man to achieve.

For example, Roman Reigns is being built as the top man in WWE, but the WWE Universe is not fully on his side, which makes it difficult for him in that position.

To help promote Wrestlemania 32, Roman Reigns recently spoke with The Kingston Whig-Standard and gave his opinion on the negativity he receives from the WWE Universe.

Does he allow the negativity to change him as a person?

“Not as a person. never as a person,” he said. “I know who I am, I know where I come from and where I want to go. At the end of the day, I’m a dad. I’ll never forget who I am.”

“I think it’s helped me,” he said. “That’s what’s cool about what we do. It’s a story, there’s no applause sign. This isn’t on set. This is live, it’s raw. We call it Raw, but it is raw. Emotions come out in the moment. There is no real way to compare that to anything and for me, I think it made me better, it made me learn faster. I was thrown into the fire, thrown into the deep end. And you can either sink or swim. And that’s how you get better. You apply that heat that’s being thrown at you.”

Do you think the WWE Universe will fully get behind Roman Reigns eventually?
