Then Shield broke up but he had zero talent whatsoever so they just left Roman with whatever shine the stable itself had and gave it all to him to float with.
They wanted him to be some kind of nu Diesel and tried to make him white with blue eyes. He got over with nobody but was still pushed endlessly becaue Vince had a boner for him and his relation with the Rock made him the one real tether the WWE had into the mainstream and any kind of real relevance.
After years of nothing working, he faked cancer to go shoot a movie with The Rock. After absence and fake cancer still didn’t get him over, he was shoved into the midcard WWE fighting over dog food.
Then Covid happened and he fucked off for months. He returned with an entire gimmick change, and Paul Heyman talking for him because Roman himself cannot promo for shit. He returned while Vince also now had 100% absolute control over crowd reaction. Reaction for Roman was now whatever Vince wanted and for however loud Vince wanted.
Then he got a stable. That stable was the only one allowed to win shit, and then it got some rat faced self insert that finally made people start caring about it.
Then he got to go on winning and be talked up as the most powerful wrestler in history despite having a reign that’ a carbon copy of Jinder Mahal’s. He and his family soon became the only thing that mattered in a company defined by celebrity and nepotism.
