#1 Roman Reigns' wasn't keen on doing the infamous "Sufferin' Succotash" promo

Jon Moxley left WWE soon after WrestleMania 35 last year, and gave several interviews where he bashed WWE for how he was handled by them. In one of his interviews, Moxley revealed that the infamous Sufferin' Succotash promo was something Roman Reigns didn't want to do. Moxley stated that Vince McMahon had Roman reigns say the line.
You think he wanted to say that? No. He went in [Vince's office], came out and was like, 'He wants me to say sufferin' succotash.' I remember laughing.

There were many times where he would cut a promo in the car, and I'm like, 'That's awesome. That's what you should say tomorrow.' Maybe he got to. Maybe they said, 'No, you have to say this.' It's the same problem for everyone. Not my problem anymore.
The promo in question was delivered by Roman Reigns at a time when he was being heavily slammed for being awful on the mic. This promo solidified many fans' belief that Reigns wasn't that good on the mic. Reigns approached Seth Rollins on an episode of WWE SmackDown and uttered the line. Almost immediately, he said that it wasn't easy to say, and winked at the camera. Many fans believed that this was Roman Reigns' way of saying that this wasn't his idea and that he was forced to deliver the line.
