There's a big difference in wanting him to come out and win because you get free money versus actually being a fan and supporting him. Fans will still boo him if they don't like him. Haven't you heard the saying you can't buy love? Same can be applied here. It would never work.

Didn't expect that reaction... Could someone please tell me how this wouldn't get over? I know he doesn't get booed as much anymore, but if they want him to get super over this would work. He doesn't have to do this forever, just till the fans really get behind him. Maybe a year or so and on big events he would drop even more money. He could have quotes like this "When I win.. It Reigns!" I think this is a very good idea to get him the face of the company. You telling me the fans in Philly wouldn't cheer him knowing that if he wins he makes it "reign". It doesn't fit his character and Okada already makes it rain.

Neh I get the idea, but I dont like it, it just seems strange, if he had a millionaire gimmick fair enough, but I don't see this as a good way to get Reigns over I think his gave run will always be tarnished by what people believed was in-line for Roman over the Wrestlemania 31 season. The only way Roman is gonna get over is if he turns heel then back to face hopefully people will forget they disliked him....
Also they need to stop doing what the did with Cena, over protection, having a superstar go over everyone all the time isn't cool and makes for boring, predictable feuds

Wouldn't work.
Okada shows up in ROH, Steve Corino simply says "It's raining!".
If that happened in WWE.
Byron: "Hey guys look at this, some Roman Reigns dollars." JBL: "YOU IDIOT BYRON IT'S NOT REAL CURRENCY! IT'S FAKE! THIS IS A TRAVESTY!" Michael: "Uh John didn't you do this when you were WWE Champion?" JBL: "DON'T BE RIDICULOUS MAGGLE, THIS IS STUPID HE WISHES HE WAS THIS RICH!"

It MAY have worked for donald trump wm23 and maybe even vinces £1m phone segment, but romans character is NOT money based, this would 100% kill him for good imho but others have made a killing out of bad ideas haha Polka dots Socko Cobra Etc

I like Corino because while he does sidetrack sometimes he actually focusses on the characters and the match. Not going off about say ACH reminding him of a baseball player from 1968.

It doesn't suit his character, bruv. That's why everyone thinks it's not that great of an idea. Also, if he were to start saying "I make it Reign" that would probably cause some inadvertent boos when they're doing everything they can to get him over as a face. I can't blame you for a lack of trying, but it just won't work man
