Apparently he's had it for 11 years and it just came back.

Wow.

Seeing someone like this be diagnosed with cancer so young, it really makes you feel vulnerable.

I bet all the haters feel like assclowns. Personally I'm not a fan of the guy but I don't wish him to get injured either.

Actually, if Twitter is anything to go by, people who admit aren't a fan of his seem to still wish Reigns a full recovery.

No one should feel bad about hating a wrestler's in ring performance just because they have leukemia or any other big health problem. It comes off as hypocritical to think someone sucks one day and then sing his praises the next not because of actual improvement but because they felt sorry for the man.

Hits younger than that, tbh. It's less a matter of his age and just the idea that no matter what you do to stay healthy you can be hit by shit like that which I always find disturbing.

Which is why I personally don't put much stock in a healthy lifestyle aside from not doing things that will kill in a much shorter span of time.

Thank God I have a small appetite cause with my mindset I'd otherwise be a blimp.

I like your need to make his cancer diagnosis about yourself.

To be fair, I'd classify myself as a Roman hater, but I've always said he seems like a nice guy and he's a good wrestler, he's just been booked so poorly that he's in a terrible position, and they absolutely need to stop pushing him - I hate the character of Roman Reigns, not the man Joe Anoa'i.

I'd say a lot of Roman haters fall into the same category, and it's easy to say "I hate your character but I feel sympathy for the man" in that situation.

I think the sort of people who straight up hated Roman as a human being and would go around wishing for him to get injured or whatever are probably happy he's sick at this point, because people who are that bitter in the first place probably lack the ability to separate the man from the character, or to give a shit about legitimate illness anyway. To them, Roman will never be anything more than a character they despise (and I could honestly see this kind of fan trying to get "You deserve it" chants going when Roman talks about his illness).

Shhh, Cole! Vince is going to be pissed at you if he finds out you're breaking kayfabe again!





I mentioned in the Geek topic earlier that I definitely had that thought. I could see Vince being such a soulless carny that he'd be like "They still hate Roman? Well, let's make them feel like shit for hating him! Let's pretend he's sick and he'll get sympathy... then we'll bring him back in a few months, say he beat it, and he'll get a huge babyface reaction! Ha ha!"

I'd like to think that even the WWE isn'r shitty enough to do something that bad, but then again, this is the company with Stephanie "Exploiting charities is the future of successful business" McMahon running things. And I'm a cynical bastard.

Why would I? I don't like the character he plays and the way he's booked is shit this hasn't changed. This however doesn't mean I wish him as a person in real life to have cancer. It seems some folk have a hard to time grasping the fact wrestlers play characters.

It's definitely being used to get Roman over but I'd assume it's real.

Apparently he beat it before 11 years ago but it's now come back. Not many survive a second time.
