Ric Flair spoke about Roman Reigns as a heel in WWE
While speaking on his Wooooo Nation Uncensored podcast, Ric Flair explained the three things the audience hates when someone is a heel. The Nature Boy noted that Roman Reigns has the same attributes, hence The Tribal Chief is truly capable of getting people to boo him.
"The three things that people hate - they hate arrogance, they hate guys who are so damn good looking that they can be as arrogant as they want, and when you have the skill that Roman does, you're really gonna pi** people off," Ric Flair said. (28:51 to 29:06)
