OT: Roman Reigns

[11thEagleFan]

Wrasslin’ fans, just saw on Twitter that Roman Reigns, real name Joe Anoa’i, former all-ACC defensive tackle and current WWE champion, announced tonight that he has leukemia. I watched his announcement, very sad.

I saw that last night. Awful. He’s someone the diehard fans have really hated but I bet that changes when he comes back. Thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.

That was shocking enough, and then they had the balls to use that real life situation to turn his best friend heel later in the night. I haven’t seen a crowd that genuinely pissed off at a villain in a really long time.

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Sorry....That was a reflex from seeing the name.

Very sad. I liked the Dean heel turn tho.

Really tough deal. I’ve never been a big fan, but I have a lot of respect for a guy that kept that a secret for 11 years when he could have easily used it as a crutch in order to get fans to like him

It will be one hell of a moment if/when he comes back and wins the title. It’s crazy to think that coming back won’t be a given, though. This ain’t like healing up from a quad tear

Yeah my respect for him grew a lot last night. Crazy they were able to keep that quiet so long.
