Why is it so hard for The WWE to get fans behind Roman Reigns?

How many top superstars have been held back as a result of WWE pushing Roman Reigns?

While this isn't exactly Roman Reign's fault, especially since WWE officials choose who to push, when and why, a lot of The WWE Universe seem to hold it against Reigns that their favourite Superstar is being held back. In fact, that's been one of the biggest problems with him being pushed altogether.

For example, WWE had him win The 2015 Royal Rumble, which drew a lot of criticism due to fans wanting Daniel Bryan to win that year. To be fair to Reigns, the same thing happened the year before when Batista won The Royal Rumble, but the fact that WWE ignored what the fans wanted again only made them angrier.

Another example was the 2018 Elimination Chamber pay per view, where WWE had Bruan Strowman dominate the entire match, only to lose to Roman Reigns in the final moments. What made the decision even worse was how much WWE had been building Strowman as a face at the time, which made him the perfect opponent for Lesnar at WrestleMania 34.

Then there was Finn Balor, who The WWE Universe also wanted to re-enter the title picture at WrestleMania by winning The Elimination Chamber match, but was cast aside into an Intercontinental title match with The The Miz and Seth Rollins instead. While it's not known who WWE would have picked if they didn't go with Reigns, fans were still upset that The WWE wanted Reigns in the title picture instead.
