Deep breath.
Roman's entire character is based on him being the most resoundingly rejected character in WWE history. Thus his need for constant "Acknowledgement". If you took the fact that he was an abject failure away from him, he would have NO character.
It works because he was booed even when positioned with Rock. When he beat Undertaker. When he took down the Authority. When he came back from cancer!
Roman was made to look stupid everytime he ignored reality and soldiered on as a hero that nobody wanted.
Bruh I didn't even think about it like that. You're absolutely right.
