    Only one thing would have made that more epic -- if Roman had come out from the back (I kept waiting for him to come out and congratulate them on winning the belts) to try to calm down Dean, and Dean gave HIM a Dirty Deeds as well.
    You want to talk about cementing someone's heel status -- and finally getting Roman over as the ultimate babyface if and when he's able to return -- DDTing the guy with cancer would've done it.

    Edge also retired the week after defending the belt at Wrestlemania 27 because of his neck injury. Again, not a deadly illness but still a champion who had to suddenly step away for good and probably the closest thing to Reigns' situation.

    Was Vince even in the building?

    I thought I saw Trips, Jamie Noble, Ranjin Singh and John Laurinaitis -- but yeah, no Vince, which is surprising because I can't believe Providence is that far from Stamford.

    That's what I meant. Keyboard on this tablet has a mind of its own. Vince was Def there. He was almost Def running gorilla. I imagine it's some weird quirk where he doesn't like to be seen having emotion. It's so weird. From most of what we know abiut him I believe Vince is giving Roman everything he needs. As he should.

    Damn. Zelina Vega makes A.J. Lee look tall -- which I guess is kinda ironic considering she plays AJ in that movie on Paige's life.

    Damn. I was hoping Braun would tip over the local medical facility's chemotherapy wing.

    Just spitballing, but Vince may have wanted Roman to have that moment for himself. In the past, Hall of Fame inductees have been told not to thank Vince because it's supposed to be about them. There also have been one or two times where Stephanie and others in the ring have said Vince doesn't want attention when he's backstage.
