The alcoholic and moronic behavior can be tolerated if he still has millions in the bank, but who knows if he does? Either way he's probably going to die broke and alone, but man will he have a lot of great stories to tell. He's been married like five times. I can pretty much guarantee that he doesn't have millions in the bank. Yeah, he's extremely poor. It's been mentioned that half the reason they keep him around post-retirement and occasionally give him things to do is mostly just so that he'll have a regular income/paycheck to help cover his multiple alimony expenses, and not wind up going to jail or worse. The Wave Master posted... Is Roman Reigns dead now? Do we have to listen to his terrible charisma-less promos now? Do we have to watch him lumber around the ring doing 5 moves? (Drive by, clothesline, uppercut punch, Superman Punch, and Spear.) I hope so!!! http://screengrabber.deadspin.com/braun-strowman-puts-roman-reigns-onto-stretcher-throws-1794197973 Silly Wave. They did that storyline so that you'll feel sorry for the poor Face who got callously beaten up by the monster Heel, and will cheer the Face even more when he triumphantly returns to get his just revenge! Unfortunately, they had to do that whole angle backstage and likely pre-recorded so they could mute out the colossal amount of boos coming from the arena the entire time Roman was talking, which all turned into a huge positive pop the moment Braun started kicking the shit out of him. Roman isn't going anywhere. He's almost certainly getting booked to go over Braun as a stepping stone to Brock, who in turn is going to drop the belt to Roman, because he's the future of the company no matter how many fans refuse to accept it, because fuck you, that's why. Zeus posted... Roman Reigns is the biggest reason why I really don't watch any more. (That and Lesnar is the champ again, so Raw has an absentee champion once more. The only plus is that the brand split hides the fact that the championship won't be on the line every PPV.) And, in general, I started to get bored with wrestling again last year so my viewing has been more sporadic. I've found it's way easier to watch if you pretty much skip Raw and SmackDown entirely, and just watch the pay-per-views for free at a friend's house. That cuts a lot of the extraneous bullshit out, and you don't have to justify watching three overpadded hours of Raw or paying for the WWE Network to yourself after a particularly mediocre pay-per-view. It also helps when the people you're watching the show with are all mostly drinking, and are all more than willing to viciously mock matches, storylines, or promos that seem excessively stupid. Between that and just watching stuff like WhatCulture and WrestleTalk online, wrestling's become more interesting to me these days than it's been since the early 2000s (which is the last time I checked out). To some extent, the behind-the-scenes info and "meta" aspects of the show are almost more interesting than the shows themselves. And Cornette's always interesting for a perspective on history and the older territory days. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family <cite>ParanoidObsessive posted [p:877028874] in Spider-Gee...
