In terms of Reigns getting pinned clean, wouldn't WM 31 count?

 

I'm pretty sure he's actually never been clean pinned as a 1 on 1 guy.

Edit: Super Wrong. My roommate is a liar.

 

I googled it and the first result was this gem from reddit.

Some of you are complaining about Cena losing clean only about once a year. I'd just like to draw attention to the list of Roman Reigns' clean losses:

It's never happened. In fact here is the complete list of all pinfall and submission losses since 2012. Both of which involved heavy cheating.

• Big Show - Feb 2nd 2015
• Seth Rollins - March 2nd 2015

 

Sheamus cashing in actually is probably his last singles loss with no outside interference. Reigns kicked out of the initial attack, ducked a brogue kick, then ate one on the rebound. MITB cash-ins never feel "clean", but, thats about as close to a clean pin as Roman has taken

Also, when the bloodline lost on Raw, that was the first time this year Roman or his team has lost via pinfall/submission. So, about 6 months between losses (TLC 2015 being his last)

 

Adam's awesome. He's fucking hilarious too.

 

I mean, you can dispute what a "clean pin" is.

If you're talking about a straight up 1 on 1 singles match with nothing unusual and no cheating, then he's never been pinned.

Survivor Series 2015 and Mania 31 had the cash-ins, but was clean in every other way. Sheamus/Rollins didn't cheat or do anything behind the ref's back. EC 2014 was a six man tag, but the Wyatts didn't do anything illegal, they just (in kayfabe) executed a good strategy.

The loss to Rollins where Orton grabbed his leg and dropping the tag titles to Cody and Goldust are obviously not clean pins.

 

Its funny to compare to Rollin's booking. Rollins obviously won heel-ish early on, but, in Sept/Oct, his team would lose routinely. He went a whole month (Sept 20, losing US title to Cena til Oct 19 v Ryback on RAW) without a win, both on taped shows and house shows. And yet he's incredibly over.

Reigns cant lose, and fans hate it

 

Yeah I meant the first one. Haven't been following wresting again too long. That's mad.

 

Having a fallible hero makes for compelling TV.

 

See: Sami Zayn

 

I said fallible, not tragic. lol

 

probably wrestle mania 31 or when Shemus cashed in on him

so basically the two times he was cashed in on

 

The hero we all need.

 

Looks like WWE is trying to holding Cody to his no compete clause for the duration of his contract. Damn.

 

Best part of that is the set-up by the guy saying he should have gone to Longhorn Steakhouse, and the company then dropping the "Woo, Woo, Woo! You know it"

 

That is amazing. Don't know how I missed that.

 

had like a 5 way tie this ppv. nick is I was one of those five so he's still champ

 

Who was the tie between? WE NEED TO KNOW.

rock paper scissor tournament for the belt.

 

uhhh it was like bigG1392, aradiantsunrise, mick, nick is I and someone else I think

I deleted the notepad file

 

Lol I didn't realize I filled it out under my AP name

 

Seth's return initiated a 7 Seconds binge:

 

Woo! Still Champ! :D

 

Sasha has a concussion she suffered from being kneed in the head by a ref.

 

Meltzer is saying Sasha's injury is significant, Uproxx is saying it's not and she's expected to be cleared soon. Let's hope the latter is right.
