Roman Reigns explains why he doesn't care if WWE fans boo him

 

Despite being a face on paper, the reactions Roman Reigns receives on a weekly basis suggests he’s the biggest heel in the company today.

Fans have their reasons for disliking him, some aren’t happy with the continual opportunities he gets at the top, others don’t believe he deserves being the face of the company and many want him to ditch the Shield gear and theme.
BOOS

Although the cheers still creep in when his music hits the PA system, it doesn’t take long for the chorus of boos to drown them out, but he seems to take it quite well.

The negative reaction hasn’t budged Vince McMahon’s stance either, as he refuses to turn him heel and rumours suggest he could still leave Royal Rumble – or even WrestleMania – as the WWE Universal Champion, even though it may not help the reactions.

That subject was finally brought up this week on ESPN’s Cheap Heat podcast, as Reigns was fulfilling media obligations ahead of Sunday’s Royal Rumble pay-per-view at the San Antonio Alamodome.

When asked about his feelings on the reactions, he revealed that he doesn’t let it affect him as a performer as he remains the center of attention.

He said: “I think [being booed] just pushed me.

“Anytime as a performer and you’re in a live situation, and you’re dealing with that sort of backlash, it’s gonna trigger emotions.
CENTER OF ATTENTION

“But I think that anybody who is dedicated and wants to get better at their craft and wants to be the very best in the business, they’re gonna use that as motivation, and that’s what I did.


“I mean, at the end of the day, x-amount of thousands of people are screaming, booing at the top of their lungs, and I’m the center of attention.

“So, I must be doing something right.”

It does seem like quite a similar situation to one we’ve seen before in John Cena.

No amount of boos will change Vince’s mind, and Reigns will probably only continue to succeed as a polarising figure in the company.
