5 reasons why WWE fans should like Roman Reigns

Roman R
Roman Reigns has his fair share of detractors

#1 He’s part of The Shield

Roman Re
Roman Reigns is one-third of WWE's most popular faction

Pre-October 2017: Roman Reigns is booed in and out of every building he’s in, simply because he’s Roman Reigns. Post-October 2017: Roman Reigns is cheered in and out of every building he’s in, simply because he’s part of The Shield.

WWE fans have long memories and many have never forgiven Reigns for his early promos, his 2015 Royal Rumble win or the fact that he kept three main gimmicks from his Shield days – the trio’s attire, music and catchphrases – while Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose didn’t.

However, all those things were forgotten when he reunited with his fellow “Hounds of Justice” again in October 2017, and the cheer/boo ratio when he walks into an arena has significantly improved in his favour in recent months.

Will it stay that way forever? Probably not, but "The Muscle of The Shield" is a pivotal member of the most popular three-man faction WWE has seen in years, and if that's not a good enough reason to like him, then we don't know what is!
