Roman Reigns On The Recent "Part-Time" Promos He Cut On WRESTLEMANIA 34 Opponent Brock Lesnar

Wrestlers cut promos on each other all the time, but the ones that really hit home and engage an audience tend to have a bit of truth to them, or at least some real-life implications.
During the buildup to his Universal Championchip match against Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania this Sunday, Roman Reigns has gone in pretty hard on Brock Lesnar, and delivered what many believe to be his best work on the mic to date.
Here's what The Big Dog had to say about those "part timer" jabs during an interview with The New York Post:
“So for me it’s very simple: Not only will it help fuel this fire between Brock and I, it will get some truth that needs to be said a little bit. Some people need to hear this stuff because this has kind of been a thing. Brock’s not the only part-time guy. But there are a lot of full-time guys that are never gonna, as a collective, reach our potentials if we are dominated in this portion of the year by part-time guys.
Whenever you have a champion who is on every single live event, every single house show, every single appearance that’s scheduled, it changes numbers. It’s true. I’ve seen it before. The tour we had after I beat Triple H in Dallas [at WrestleMania 32] the numbers didn’t lie and it’s not going to be any different [this time].”
It's hard to argue with what Reigns says here - although some would suggest that it's good to promote certain Superstars as "special attractions" from time to time. That may be, but then, does it make sense for them to be the champ?
