You can do interesting things with that. Part of Romans problem is he's never really felt vulnerable. I don't know if that salvages him with crowds, but s***, it's worth a shot, isn't it?

Agreed, Reigns needs to start letting this affect him and showcase some sympathy and vulnerability. A little of what we saw at this year's 'Mania when he did his walk of shame. I felt a bit for him when he did that. The real problem with subsequent rematches is that not all of them can be 'Mania, so there's less blood, less f-5s, less mayhem...and it gets to a point Reigns defeating Lesnar ultimately falls kind of flat.

D-Bry got to break the longest time spent in a Rumble at an hour and sixteen minutes. And man, dude looked like a freaking warrior. He got tore up so bad during the Rumble he had bruises all over his chest and arms.

I saw that, boy his chest looked it'd been cut open by wild animals.
