10 Things We Learned From Attending WWE Raw After WrestleMania Live

2. We Need To Talk About Roman

Roman Reigns didn't appear on last night's Raw. While buddy Seth Rollins celebrated his Universal Title win and Dean Ambrose squared off with Bobby Lashley, 'The Big Dog' remained backstage, with WWE seemingly opting not to use him after a big WrestleMania 35 victory over Drew McIntyre.

Seth Rollins' post-main event dark segment drew him from the back, though. 'The Kingslayer' invited his former Shield brother to the ring to participate in Ambrose's "farewell" scene, and frankly, the reaction Brooklyn gave 'The Big Dog' was repulsive.

While many cheered Reigns, a huge, repugnant core of the audience actually booed the man. They booed a literal leukemia survivor, for f*cks sake, just seven weeks after announcing that his disease was in remission.

What. The. Hell?

This was a gross turnaround for a man whose condition could have been fatal, and it made your writer extremely uncomfortable. You don't have to cheer for Reigns, but what kind of ghoul rises to their feet and jeers when a man in his situation makes his entrance, particularly so soon after his return? It's hideous. If you don't want to root for him, just stay silent, you ghoul.
