As we reported earlier in the week, the backstage feeling in WWE is that Roman Reigns’ recent scripted promos have him in “quicksand,” and are doing very little to help raise him to the next level in WWE.
As seen on Raw this week, Roman Reigns cut a promo comparing himself to Superman, and then on Smackdown last night, he cut another cartoon-like promo during which he borrowed the phrase “suffering succotash,” made famous by The Looney Tunes character Sylvester.
When asked on Twitter who is responsible for Reigns’ promos, Dave Meltzer posted the following:
@WWMoan Vince is writing his promos. Vince is really out of touch. I hate to say it but the promos speak for themselves.
