With the WWE Undisputed Universal Champion title belt across his shoulders and the reverence of his title of The Tribal Chief in the ring, Roman Reigns has been dominating the Pro Wrestling scene for quite a while now and seeks to continue his heel streak for a lot longer.
But when it comes to fan reception, the WWE Universe doesn’t seem to take his character all too well as he now has more haters than supporters in the business.
But according to the star, all the hate that he gets from the fans is completely unjustified and even stupid. In a recent interview, the champion revealed that fans should be grateful he turned heel in the ring as it saved the entire business.
Roman Reigns Calls The WWE Universe Stupid For Hating Him When He Turned Heel
For more than a record-breaking three-year retention of the WWE Universal Championship, culminating in him becoming the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns has proved once and for all why he sits at the top of the food chain as The Tribal Chief in the business.
But despite this impressive feat in Pro Wrestling, people in the WWE Universe don’t like the star too much, especially after the superstar turned heel.
During a recent episode of The Pat McAfee Show, the star was in conversation with the hosts, where he called out all of the people who hated him for turning heel as nothing but their stupidity. He claimed that his turning heel and still being the champion in the business is what has kept it running. He said:
“The simple truth, people are stupid, let them do what they want, it’s fine, it’s worked out great, we’re not complaining at all, the checks are crazy & they keep coming in, so we’ll keep doing what we do & we don’t care what they think because it’s the truth. I put my family on my back, the company on my back & why not share the spotlight & why not make everybody better & these 4 years are a testament to it.”
Thus, as the title streak goes on, the wrestler will continue to try and dominate anyone who challenges him in the ring, even if he isn’t loved by the fandom.
What’s Next For Roman Reigns?
With The American Nightmare Cody Rhodes redeeming his 2024 Royal Rumble win to challenge Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion at WrestleMania XL, things got more heated when Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson also had beef with the challenger.
Thus, with this year’s WrestleMania being a two-day event, The Rock and Reigns have been set to settle it all in the ring with Rhodes and Seth Rollins in a Tag-Team match on April 6th, and the next day, Rhodes will challenge Reigns for the title as the main event of the annual sporting event in Pro Wrestling.
