During the Attitude Era of WWE, Stone Cold Steve Austin used to annoy his opponents whenever they cut a promo by repeatedly saying, “what.” Fans picked up this trait, and it has been a staple of audience chants since. Members of the audience, who dislike a promo, often chant “what” to show their dissatisfaction.

While speaking on Logan Paul’s IMPAULSIVE podcast, Roman Reigns talked about how to tackle the “what” chants. The Tribal Chief mentioned it was important not to get flustered over the chant and to improvise.

Roman Reigns recently went up against Drew McIntyre at Clash at the Castle on September 3. At the end of the match, his cousin Solo Sikoa debuted on the main roster to assist Reigns in getting the victory. Sikoa becomes the fourth member of The Bloodline, with Sami Zayn being the Honorary Uce.
