I’m the head of the table now.
Solo Sikoa had staked his claim to the title that Roman Reigns gave himself to establish his presence as one of the main villains in all of professional wrestling.
In response, fans started rallying behind Roman Reigns. They chanted for him to return, a conquering hero reclaiming his title from his usurping cousin. In the months since then, they have backed him and his claim as one of the top good guys in wrestling.
Here’s the thing. The fans are now cheering for the same line, the same idea, the same title for Roman Reigns that they used to boo. He’s still the Head of the Table. He’s still the Tribal Chief.
Maybe Roman Reigns didn’t change. Maybe it was just the way that everything around him changed. Maybe we’re the ones who changed.
