Former WWE head writer Vince Russo recently shared his thoughts on Roman Reigns’ return. The OTC showed up on RAW this week.
The Usos were in a Tornado Tag Team Match against Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed this week. The match descended into chaos as all four men brawled around the ringside area. The Vision stacked up Jimmy and Jey for the finish. Just then Roman returned amidst deafening cheers. The Usos used this opening to hit a double Uso Splash onto Breakker for the win.
This week on Legion of RAWRusso noted that WWE has repeatedly been brining back Reigns whenever they were short of star power. He felt it has already been 12-15 times that Roman has returned for one night without any coherent storyline to keep fans hooked to the angle.
“I wish I had been keeping track of how many times they’ve played the Roman Reigns card. Bro, I am not exaggerating. I would say that we’re probably somewhere between the 12-15 range.”

The veteran writer added that the people in attendance would always enjoy the show but the casual fans watching at home will eventually get tired of the same old product.
“It is old. The marks in the arena are gonna get excited over anything. People watching at home, casual fans that aren’t marks, see that and say the same exact things we say, ‘How many freaking times, bro?’ I mean, seriously, bro.”
Roman Reigns’ return just weeks ahead of Crown Jewel has set the tone of the OTC being in action at the PLE. It will be interesting to see how WWE books his road to the major event in Australia.
