WWE Hal of Famer Ric Flair was recently interviewed by GiveMeSport.com and spoke about fans rejceting Roman Reigns as the next “face of WWE.”
Flair said that he believes Reigns’ relation to The Rock is actually working against him:
“I don’t pay a lot of attention to him talking on the mic but I think he’s okay. Fans look at Roman and they want him to sound like The Rock and that isn’t going to happen,” Flair explained.
Flair added that “The Rock didn’t become The Rock overnight either” and said it took him years to nail down his act.
“Roman has got so much talent that fans are going to have to be patient with him. It doesn’t happen overnight. If people are upset with Roman it’s not over a lack of talent. Fans are always going to have their opinion, but Roman has a fantastic future ahead of him.”
