Roman Reigns On Trying To Win Fans Back, The New Day's Popularity, A Reunion For The Shield
- Roman Reigns recently appeared on "The Buzz with Jimmy Traina" to promote WWE's annual breast cancer awareness campaign with Susan G. Komen. FOX Sports has full audio and a recap at this link. Below are a few highlights:
A possible reunion for The Shield:
"It's tough because I enjoy what I'm doing now. I enjoy being a singles guy. I enjoy commanding the stage with myself and an opponent. It's a different process when you're teammates. Especially with the way we work. We're very unselfish with how we work together in so many different regards. Not just what you see as the final product of the match. Just strategizing, psychology, teamwork. What made us so empowering is that we helped each other and we always looked out for each other and you didn't see that in wrestling too often. Even in factions, it's a very individual game, but The Shield, we were just iron-clad brothers in black. We made it more about the group than anything. I miss that. I miss that camaraderie."
Winning back fans who turned against him at the beginning of 2015:
"It's been a work in progress. The crowd is the crowd. You're gonna take them as an individual performer how you take them. The key is how do you learn from them. How do you use whatever is happening reaction-wise to get better."
The New Day's popularity:
"Although I've beaten some of their asses in the past few weeks, I enjoy watching them. You can tell they're having fun. That's a huge thing. When you can see a talent having fun, you can invest more."
Reigns also talks about the San Francisco 49ers, fans calling Dean Ambrose "titty master" and more in the full interview.
