Roman Reigns On Fans Booing And Supporting Him, Facing Triple H At WrestleMania 32, Accomplishments

- Roman Reigns recently spoke with The Kingston Whig-Standard to promote WWE's WrestleMania 32. The full interview is at this link. Below are highlights:

Coming up on his second WrestleMania main event already, what he's accomplished:

"Sometimes it doesn't even feel real. I try not to look on the accolades or the things that I've done. I try to focus on, 'What can you control?' 'What's the next step?' 'What's going to help you out for tomorrow?' But it is really cool to be able to look back and think, 'Wow man.' ... (There have been) so many great opportunities, I've met so many cool people, built so many great relationships, I've been able to see damn near the whole world."

His love-hate relationship with fans:

"It's a tough one because there is no one answer. There is no one reason why someone would want to boo me. Maybe they don't like what I wear, how I sound, maybe I did something to offend them, but for me, it's hard because I'm under the microscope and I'm dealing with a lot of different things and there's a lot of things flying my way. For me, I can only continue to stay within myself and worry about the things I can control and the things I can control are, Am I healthy?; Am I showing up to where I need to be on time?; Am I here to perform and do my job? If I do that, then our fans, they can cheer me, they can boo me, as long as we all show up to the arena, everything will be fine. We'll be able to create that awesome experience, create that energy."

"As for the reasons why these things happen, I don't know. I do know I have a lot of supporters. These people have my back. There's nothing that anybody can say negatively to me that will make me believe you are correct. It's just your opinions," he said, adding that his football background comes in handy with crowd reactions and reception. "I'm an ex-football player, so I've been in a home environment, I've played in an away environment. As long as I know the supporters are still by me, even if they're not in the arena, I hear them on social media and I know they're out there. If you're riding with me, it's going to be a good ride. If you're going against me, we're sorry for what's going to happen next."

Facing WWE World Heavyweight Champion Triple H:

"Nobody's molded and had a bigger impact on the business, I don't think, than Triple H in the past 10 to 15 years. He's pretty much done all of the hard work, the nitpicking, day in, day out. He's been in the ring, he's been travelling, being the face of the company essentially ? always promoting, always working, always thinking about the business, always thinking about the future, building NXT and on top of that, playing the whole suit role and the whole office role, but still getting in the gym, still looking great, still can go, still a great athlete, still a competitor."
