Here, here. And that's a big source of the Roman Reigns backlash. It's not even that people don't like Reigns -- they can just feel another decade of an ice-cream that's not their flavor.

On the Stone Cold podcast Triple H talked about how certain fans automatically reject a guy when they sense the company is behind them. Reigns is an interesting study of this mentality. If you watched him in his Shield days, he was the most over guy in the group. But when they split and WWE was clearly positioning him at the top of the card, some of the fans rejected it. But he's the same guy, the fans just turned on him seemingly for no reason. Almost like they think they are being cool by rejecting the guy WWE has chosen to push.

Clearly not all fans dislike Reigns. You can see little kids in the arenas cheering for him, and recent live reports indicate he's the most over guy with Cena gone.

Its this thing where the loud minority of the crowd wants to feel like they are going against the grain. Like a child throwing a temper tantrum, you just gotta let them get it out of their system, and book what you feel is right in the long run.

No he's not the same guy, when he was in the shield he was getting the hot tag and not speaking anything longer than a sentence.

Now he's a singles guy who can't cut a promo.

He's only recently been speaking a lot. Earlier this year he was mostly just coming out and fighting. With the odd backstage segment with Ambrose.

It's a big transition to go from being a middle of the pack guy to the man. He's going to take time to adapt. I know people in here thought it was a cheesy line, but he got the fans chanting tater tot.
